RS-232/UART - LAN/WiFi converter kit HLK-RM04

Product detailed description

The RS-232/UART to LAN or WiFi converter kit is designed for applications where it is necessary to transfer RS-232/UART communication via LAN/WiFi network to a remote device, e.g. PC, or a second converter module. The kit consists of the HLK-RM04 converter module and a motherboard on which the basic components are integrated for easy development of custom applications with this module. The board contains a UART <-> RS-232 converter, 2x LAN port, two buttons and a socket for the HLK-RM04 module itself.

The module is supplied with oginal firmware, but alternative OpenWRT fw can be loaded into it.

Configuration of the module with the original fw is possible either via RS-232/UART using the manufacturer's software or via LAN using the web interface.

To connect the module to Windows, software is required to create a virtual serial port. The module works with various programs, e.g. Virtual COMM Port Driver from NetBurner, HW VSP3 from HW-group, or Virtual Serial Port Driver from Eltima Software.
