With NPort's Real COM/TTY drivers, the serial ports on NPort 5430 are recognized as Real COM ports by the Windows operating system, or Real TTY ports by Linux environments. The usual transmit/receive data signals are provided for RS-422, and 2-wire and 4-wire RS-485. 4 independent serial ports can be configured for different operation modes Versatile operation is ensured since different modes can be used for different serial ports. NPort 5430 Series products are suitable for connnecting different devices for remote data polling, event handling, or data multicasting via the TCP/IP network. For example, you can configure NPort 5430's port 1 for driver mode, port 2 for TCP server mode, and ports 3 and 4 for TCP client mode.
