DS110x

Introduction

The DS110x is a family of compact BASIC-programmable controllers designed for serial-over-IP and serial control applications.

The DS110x family currently includes:

• The DS1100 serial controller with a single-channel RS232 port, this model targets cost-sensitive applications;
• The DS1101 serial controller with the 3.5-channel RS232 port;
• The DS1102 serial controller with the universal RS232 (3-channel)/422/485 port.

The family is fully supported by TIDE software.

DS110x devices ship preloaded with a fully functional serial-over-IP application. Written in Tibbo BASIC, the application is compatible with Tibbo Device Server Toolkit software, comes with full source codes, and can be modified by the user.

Common hardware features of the DS110x family

• 10/100BaseT auto-MDIX Ethernet port.
• Power: 12VDC nominal (min. 9V, max. 18V).
• Dimensions: 90x48x25mm.
• Operating temperature range: -5 ~ 70 C.
• CE- and FCC-certified.

Programming features

• Variable Types: Byte, char, integer (word), short, dword, long, real, string, plus user-defined arrays and structures.
• Function Groups: string functions (27 in total!), date/time conversion functions (8), encryption/hash calculation functions (AES128*, RC4, MD5, SHA-1), and more.
• Platform objects:
  • sock — socket communications (up to 16 UDP, TCP, and HTTP sessions);
  • net — controls the Ethernet port;
  • wln — handles the Wi-Fi interface (when the WA2000 or GA1000 is installed, DS1101 and DS1102 only);
  • lcd — controls the OLED display (when the display is installed, DS1101 and DS1102 only).
  • ser — in charge of serial channels;
  • io — handles I/O lines, ports, and interrupts;
  • fd — manages flash memory file system and direct sector access;
  • stor — provides access to the EEPROM;
  • romfile — facilitates access to resource files (fixed data);
  • pppoe — provides access to the Internet over an ADSL modem;
  • ppp — provides access to the Internet over a serial modem (GPRS, POTS, etc.);
  • pat — "plays" patterns on green and red status LEDs;
  • beep — generates buzzer patterns (DS1101 and DS1102 only);
  • button — monitors the setup button;
  • sys — in charge of general device functionality.

* The DS1100 does not support AES functions (aes128enc and aes128dec).
