ORing IDS-342GT Industrial Secure Serial Port to Ethernet Device Server Installation Guide
Introduction
IDS-342GT is an innovative secure 4 port RS-232/422/485 to 2 ports Gigabit Ethernet secure device server with standard features of device server, such like TCP/IP interface and versatile operation modes: Virtual Com, Serial Tunnel, TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP. In addition, the Windows untility, DS-Tool, could configure multiple devices and set up the mappings of Virtual Com. On the other hand, IDS-342GT can simultaneously transfer data up to 5 redundant host PCs to aovid Ethernet connection breakdown or any host PC fails. Further, IDS-342GT features HTTPS, SSH, and SSL encryption to assure the security of critical data transmission. IDS-342GT supports RS-232/422/485 and provides dual redundant power inputs, 12~48 VDC, on terminal block to guarantee a non-stop operation. With wide operating temperature, -40~70oC, and rugged IP-30 housing design, IDS-342GT series could operate in the harsh industrial environment. Therefore, IDS-342GT is the best solution to the high demand of secure serial to Ethernet critical data communication.
Package Contents
The device is shipped with the following items. If any of these items is missing or damaged, please contact your customer service representative for assistance.
Preparation
Before you begin installing the device, make sure you have all of the package contents available and a PC with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later, for using web-based system management tools.
Safety & Warnings
⚠ Elevated Operating Ambient: If installed in a closed environment, make sure
the operating ambient temperature is compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
⚠ Reduced Air Flow: Make sure the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised during installation.
⚠ Mechanical Loading: Make sure the mounting of the equipment is not in a
hazardous condition due to uneven mechanical loading.
⚠ Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing
this concern.

Installation
Use the mounting kits attached with the package and follow the steps below to install the switch to a rail or to the wall.
DIN-rail Installation
Step 1: Slant the switch and screw the Din-rail kit onto the back of the
switch, right in the middle of the back panel.
Step 2: Slide the switch onto a DIN-rail from the Din-rail kit and make sure
the switch clicks into the rail firmly.
Wall-mounting
Step 1: Screw the wall-mount kit (in the package) onto the back of the switch. A total of six screws are required, as shown below. Step 2: Use the switch, with wall mount plates attached, as a guide to mark the correct locations of the wall-mounting screws. Step 3: Insert a screw head through the large part of the keyhole-shaped aperture on the plate, and then slide the switch downwards. Tighten the screw for added stability.
⚠ Instead of screwing the screws in all the way, it is advised to leave a space of about 2mm to allow room for sliding the switch between the wall and the screws.
Network Connection
The series have standard Ethernet ports. Depending on the link type, the switch uses CAT 3, 4, 5, 5e UTP cables to connect to network devices (PCs, servers, switches, routers, or hubs). Please refer to the following table for cable specifications.
Cable Types and Specifications:
For pin assignments for different types of cables, please refer to the following tables.
DB9 serial port
The device can be connected to a serial device using a DB9 cable. The DB9 connector supports RS232 / RS422 / RS485 operation modes. Please refer to the following table for the pin assignments of the DB9 connector.
Wiring
Power inputs The device has two sets of DC power inputs on a 6-pin terminal block located on bottom of the device. Follow the steps below to wire the power input on the terminal block.
STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive wires into the V-/V+ terminals,
respectively.
STEP 2: To keep the wires from pulling loose, use a small flat-blade
screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front of the connector.
Configurations
After installing the switch, the green power LED should turn on. Please refer to the following tablet for LED indication.
Follow the steps to set up the card:
- Launch the Internet Explorer and type in IP address of the switch. The default static IP address is 192.168.10.2
- Log in with default user name and password (both are admin). After logging in, you should see the following screen. For more information on configurations, please refer to the user manual. For information on operating the device using Oring’s Open-Vision management utility, please go to ORing website.
Resetting
To restore the switch configurations back to the factory defaults, press the Reset button for 5 seconds.
