Virtual serial port to ethernet

[sandervc 0]

Hi, I'm (still) looking for a nice freeware app that can create a virtual serial port an serve this on a IP-port. (like ezVSP) I allready looked at HW VSP, but I can't get it to act as a server. Grtz, Sander

We use virtual serial port driver from Tibbo to connect Mitsubishi Fx2n Plc s without problems. http://www.tibbo.com/tdst_vspman.php Greetings Funfrok Edited 4 Feb 2006 by funfrok

Allen Bradley has one for the ENI module. I don't know if you can use it else where: http://www.ab.com/plclogic/micrologix/downloads/comredir.zip

I have communicated from a PLC to a Mitsubishi FX@N using the 1761-NET-ENI but have never been able to get it to communicate from a PC. It is probably because my software is old and serial communications is the only option I have for connecting to the PLC. I have never looked into the newer software. Does it give you the option of connecting over Ethernet. If it does I could probably make it work I have also used it to connect to serveral CNC machines that accept Raw ASCII.

We like to use Digi's. They work great and are easy to configure. http://www.digi.com/products/externaldevic.../digioneiap.jsp

Hi, I know that Moxa has some software that will emulate a serial port locally on the pc. You need the hardware that goes with it though! What do you want to accomplish?
