4.3 Serial Port Connection (RS232/RS485)

• 232: Connect your RS232 device to the DB9 male connector. Refer to the pinout diagram (Figure 4) for correct wiring.
• 485: Connect your RS485 device to the A and B terminals on the screw terminal block. Ensure proper A/B polarity for communication.

4.4 Network Connection (Ethernet/WiFi)

• Ethernet: Connect an Ethernet cable from your network switch or router to the RJ45 Ethernet port.
• WiFi: Screw the provided WiFi antenna onto the SMA connector. The device can operate in various WiFi modes (AP, STA, AP+STA) which are configured via the web interface or serial commands.

5. Operating Modes and Configuration

The Waveshare Serial Server supports a variety of operating modes to suit different application needs. Configuration is primarily done via a web interface or AT commands through the serial port.

5.1 Баштапкы мүмкүндүк алуу жана конфигурациялоо

To access the device's web interface for configuration:

1. Ensure the device is powered on and connected to your network (via Ethernet or WiFi).
2. The default IP address for the WiFi interface is typically 10.10.100.254. Ensure your computer is on the same subnet for initial access.
3. ачуу а web browser and enter the device's IP address (e.g., http://10.10.100.254).
4. Log in using the default credentials (refer to the full manual or product documentation for default username/password, if any).
5. From web interface, you can configure network settings (IP address, subnet, gateway), serial port parameters (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits), and select the desired operating mode.

Note: Some advanced configurations or troubleshooting may require using specific software tools (e.g., SSCOM) or AT commands via a serial terminal. Refer to the manufacturer's detailed documentation for comprehensive AT command sets.

5.2 Supported Operating Modes
