1.1 Introduction The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is a light- ning fast and cost effective data gateway between RS- 232/422/485 and Ethernet interfaces. This unit imme- diately upgrades your existing device(s) to the Ethernet world. Functionally transparent and efficient, the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is specially designed for remotely controlling and monitoring de- vices via the Internet. The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 provides one, two or four RS-232/485/422 serial ports that can each be

space and software development cost. The ADAM- 4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 also provides a high- performance RISC CPU and real time operating sys- tem to reduce CPU load. These components make the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 more stable and reliable. Another benefit is the ADAM-4570/ ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 allows users to remotely download programs to a designated device via Ethernet. This reduces the need for on-site maintenance and di- agnosis. In addition, the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/ EDG-4504 comes wit

the serial device or communication between the device and the ADAM-4570 fails, the “Device Idle” function will switch the communication port from one port to another port to keep com- municating with another device automatically. Thus, another de- vice can send data to the ADAM-4570. Auto-reconnect after networking breaks Sometimes, the system crashes because the ADAM-4570/ ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is interrupted or powered-off by ac- cident. The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 provides an “Auto-reconnec
