  RS-232 to Ethernet Adapters really are not simple "adapters" at all. They are sophisticated devices which allow you to place serial ports anywhere your network can reach, while still appearing as local RS232 ports to your computer and applications. This extends the distance you can operate your DNC system and reduces the amount of cable you will need to buy and run. For more flexibility, you can use more than one device to increase the number of ports and get the serial ports closer to your CNC's. Whether you place a one-port unit at each CNC, a 2, 4, or 8 port unit in each cell of CNC's, or use a combination of units simply to reduce your cable lengths - these devices can handle your data needs while providing you the flexible topology you desire.

 

Quatech ThinQ

 

Quatech ThinQ devices are RYM's latest and easiest to install Ethernet to serial adapters yet. They ship with a CD-ROM containing a "wizard" which will search your network and help you configure basic settings pertaining to the setup of your network. Further setup can be performed using a web browser in a simple menu-driven control page. RYM worked with Quatech during the development and testing of the ThinQ to ensure that its performance meets the needs of our software. Other advanced features include SNMP remote management and monitoring capability, 10/100 Ethernet support, and a five year manufacturer's warranty - the best of our Ethernet products. The ThinQ is compatible with Windows NT 4.0, 2000 and XP. Users needing earlier operating system support may wish to consider the Comtrol Serial Hub Si and DeviceMaster Primo. Available in 1, 2, 4, and 8 port versions - and multiple ThinQ devices may be hooked up to a single DNC server. Also available with surge suppression or in RS-422 models.

Quatech ThinQ units are best suited for customers who:
  • Have installations where it is ideal to run cables to  a location other than the DNC server
  • Need to extend the reach of their DNC network
  • Want to place a serial port closer to (or even directly inside) their CNC's
  • Have no PCI slots available, but need a high-performance option for 8 or more CNC's
  • Have multiple clusters of CNC cables that they want to be controlled by one system (i.e. combining the machines connected to three different switchboxes around the shop to operate on one DNC server)

 


1-port version too!
