First time poster, so sorry if I break any rules related to posting on the forums.
We have a RS232 device that we’d like to get online, it uses a controller that has its own custom serial protocol: https://www.cszindustrial.com/portals/1/pdf/DII50.04_Manual.pdf Basically looks to be using simple ASCII commands to view data, change setpoints, etc.
I figure I could use something like a Moxa NPort device and the TCP Driver to get this device online. Would then script out my commands (PRINT command every few minutes) to the ‘Writeable’ tag that is created and read the responses from the ‘Message’ tag. Is this the proper way to go about this? Or would I be better off using the serial module for accomplishing this? I’d imagine that the TCP Driver would work with this setup but I have not utilized it in any of my applications which is why I ask.
