Chapter1 Introduction

NB1A1 is a series of serial port server products independently developed by EBAite, which can

realize bi-directional transparent transmission of data from 16 serial ports to Ethernet ports. Support

Modbus protocol conversion, multi-host gateway, storage gateway and other data conversion

functions. At the same time, it also supports the upload of on-site data to the cloud server to achieve

cloud monitoring. The equipment adopts industrial design standards to ensure stability in harsh

working environments.

It supports the fast configuration of host computer and AT command, which can realize the fast

debugging and installation of equipment.

Widely used in computer room monitoring, environmental monitoring, intelligent traffic, road

gate control, intelligent express cabinets and other industries.

Chapter 2 Quick Start

2.1 Hardware preparation

A laptop with RJ45 network port and USB interface;

NB1A1 serial server one;

DC12V 1A power adapter;

A network cable;

One USB to RS485 converter;

The following figure shows the hardware devices to be prepared：

[Note] The version of the host computer shown in the manual may be different from that provided by

the official website. The host computer provided by the official website shall prevail.

2.3 Device Test Procedure

This quick Start guide uses RS485 channel 1 as an example to describe how to configure other

channels.

2.3.1 Connect hardware

1. Connect serial port server network port and computer network port with network cable;

2, use the USB to RS485 converter to connect the USB port of the computer and the RS485 interface

of the serial port server (A to A, B to B); (If the serial port cannot be identified, install the

corresponding driver.)

3. Use a power adapter (DC 8-28V) to power on the serial port server device. After powering on the

device, observe whether the indicator is normal.

4. Confirm that the status is correct and proceed to the next configuration；

Note: The power-on and power-on process is expected to take about 50 seconds. Wait for the NET

indicator to blink quickly, indicating that the device is powered on.

2.3.2 Device parameters settings

We tested transparent data transfer using the default parameters of the serial server. Open the

configuration software, click Search device, select the device, and check the following parameters：

Change the computer IP address as follows: 192.167.3.100.

Ensure that the PC IP address and serial port server IP address are in the same network segment,

and the IP address must be different. The method is shown in the following figure.

Note: If the communication is not successful, the user can try to close the firewall of the

computer and try again, as shown in the following figure：

2.3.3 Open the serial debugging assistant

Start the XCOM V2.6 software, select the correct serial port number, set the current serial port

parameters of the device (the default value is 115200-8N1), and open the serial port, as shown in the

following figure：

2.3.4 Opening the Network Assistant

Open the Network assistant software, select the "TCP Client" mode, set the remote IP address to

"192.168.3.7" and the remote port to "8001", and click the Connect button, as shown in the following

figure：
