SPECIFICATION

sWiFi/all is an ultra-small serial converter that provides WiFi wireless connectivity function to equipment supporting RS232, RS422, and RS485. The communication specification supports 2.4GHz, 5GHz IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n, and supports standard serial communication. sWiFi/all connects various kinds of serial equipment to the network, including remote control and monitoring of devices connected through the network. sWiFi/all supports three modes: Station, COM Redirector, and can be connected via a wireless network and used as a serial cable

Station Mode

An IP of a router band can be dynamically allocated through DHCP or set to Static by the way sWiFi/all accesses to the AP(router).

COM Redirector Mode

The serial port of sWiFi/all connected to the network can be used as if were a serial port mounted on a PC.

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION

sWiFi/all Appearance

• sWiFi/all is a DCE(Data Communications Equipment) type converter that connects directly to DTE equipment such as PCs.

• Pressing the factory reset button for more than 3 seconds will reset the sWiFi/all to the default state.

Serial Port (DE-9 FEMALE)

LED Operating Status

Power Connector

A power connector is a DC adapter that connects DC 5V adapter power cable.

HOW TO CONNECT

This chapter provides information necessary for sWiFi/all to connect and operate with the desired serial devices, such as wireless LAN and serial connection. Procedure for connecting sWiFi/all to devices and networks is as follows.

Power Supply

Check that the input voltage supplied to sWiFi/all matches the model’s specification and supply the voltage. sWiFi/all starts booting with power on only when power is normally supplied. There are RDY, and SRL/LINK LEDs for checking the status of operating status. Please refer to chapter 3 for information on the status of the LEDs

Connection

With PC and serial port connection and terminal running (9,600bps, 8bit, 1stop, no-parity), you can set up sWiFi/all by running a dedicated utility of sWiFi/all. Please refer to the next chapter for setups.

SETTING IN UTILITY

sWiFi/all provide a setup method through the sWiFiConfig.exe utility.

Mode Setting

The initial sWiFi/all serial port settings are 9,600bps, 8bit, 1stop, no parity.

Setting

Click the Supply Config button to change the sWiFi/all settings. The data set at this time will be stored in sWiFi/all and with the reset of sWiFi/all, it will work in the changed settings.

Clearing Console Window Logs
Click the Clear Log button to initialize the console window.

View Settings

Click the ReadConfig button in the program to view the current setup status of sWiFi/all. You can view or execute console commands through the console window at the bottom of the program.

tcp_server

| Set the operating protocol to be used on the serial port.

com_redirector

Make the serial port on CS sWiFi/all available as a virtual COM port on a PC in Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/7/8.1 environment. When this mode is selected, all settings in the serial will follow the virtual COM Port settings. tcp_server

CS sWiFi/all acts as a socket server and waits for access from the client on the network. The socket number waiting for access is set in the [listen] sub command, and when the socket connection is completed, the data generated between the socket and the serial port is transmitted intact.

tcp_client

When a particular server is waiting for access on the network, CS sWiFi/all acts as a client of the socket, attempting to connect with the IP address and socket number of the server set. When the socket connection is completed, the data that occurs between the socket and the serial port is transmitted. Set the IP and port number of the server to request access in the [remote] subcommand.

udp_server

CS sWiFi/all acts as a UDP server and waits for UDP access from the client on the network. Set the socket number waiting for access in the [listen] subcommand. When UDP packets are received in the socket number waiting for access, data is sent to the serial port, and data input from the serial port is made into UDP packets and sent to the Client.

udp_client

When data is entered into the serial port, UDP packets are sent to the IP and socket number of the server set up. Through [remote] sub command, the IP and port number of the server to request access can be set.

listen| 4001| Specifies the Socket number assigned to the port. Use this port to wait for

network socket connections in TCP Server and UDP Server modes.

remote| 0.0.0.0:4001| Specify the IP address and port of the destination to connect to in TCP Client

and UDP Client modes.

latency| 5| Set up if you want to send continuously-received data from the serial port to

 |  | the socket at once.

For example, if a serial device transmits 100 bytes of text from a serial device to a socket on the server via CS sWiFi/all, if the value is 0, the data entered in bytes at a time is immediately sent to the server through the socket, ensuring real-time, but causing a lot of traffic to the network. This can lead to poor performance of the product, leading to loss of serial port data, so avoid setting it to 0.

If this value is not set to 0, it buffers the data received several bytes at a time, waits for the amount of time set, re-buffers the data if it is read again, and if it is not, it sends all the data back to the socket, regarding that, it has been received, so there is no traffic problem caused by many packets, but real-time cannot be ensured.
