In this article we present the new CSW-H80 device by Sollae that in only nine x five centimetres realizes a complete serial – WiFi converter.
The CSW-H80 by Sollae is a small size Serial <-> WiFi converter enclosed in a plastic box of only 93mm x 57mm x 24mm, equipped with wireless IEEE802.11b/g interface and 2dBi antenna.
The CSW-H80 converter is the ideal solution for controlling serial devices on the LAN or Internet with no need of wires or complicated cable infrastructure.
It is completely configurable by mean of the software utility called ezManager and it can be used on WiFi network in both modes Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc optionally protected by 64 or 128 WEP Key encryption.
Main techincal features
Power supply: 5V (±10%)
Consumption: 300mA
Dimensions: 93mm x 57mm x 24mm (without antenna)
Weight: 66g (without antenna)
Serial interface: Male DB9 Connector (Standard RS232)
Serial bit rate: 300bps ~ 230400bps (RTS/CTS Flow Control)
Wi-Fi interface: IEEE802.11b/g with female SMA connector
Communication modes: T2S (TCP Server Mode) COD (TCP Client Mode) ATC
(TCP Server / Client) U2S (UDP)
Protocols: TCP, UDP, IP, ICMP, ARP, DHCP, PPPoE,
DNS lookup, DDNS(Dynamic DNS), Telnet COM Port, WEP
Seriale Interface
The only serial interface equipping the CSW-H80 converter by Sollae is placed on a male DB9 connector (standard S232 connector) and is compliant with the electrical specifications RS232 (±12V).

Configuration Software
The ezManager software, provided for free and downloadable in end section of this article, allows the configuration of all the parameters needed for the correct working. Among these we find, WiFi connection parameters, network LAN parameters, serial port settings and working mode (client/server).
For the first configuration of the CSW-H80 converter, of course you need to power it with a voltage of +5V DC.
Then, with the help of a pen for example, press for few msec the "Function button" in the pin-hole placed on one side of the converter.
Once entered in configuration mode, all the LEDs on the top panel of the CSW-H80 start blinking rapidly.
Using a Null modem cable, see the following schematic,
connect the Sollae converter to the serial port (or by mean of a USB-Serial converter) of a Windows PC, then launch the ezManager program.
On the user interface of this software utility, select the COM port where the CSW-H80 has been previously connected and the click on the button “Open” a then “Read”.
Once connected to the device and loaded the current configuration, then we can set all the needed parameters to fit our requirements in term of serial port, wifi LAN and so on.
After setting completion, just click on the “Write” button to save the new configuration and then click on the “Close” button if you want to release the serial port.
Examples of use
Some possible examples of use on the field of the WiFi converters by Sollae could be:
Wireless remote communication of different sensors (e.g. electronic thermometers) and applications running on PC
Remote monitor system (e.g. medical systems in a health service)
Data transmission for information projection on displays (e.g. traffic signalling)
Remote data retrieving from Measuring and Regulation system by wireless notebook or PDA
Wireless realization of factory networks with connection to LAN and Internet
Security systems
Remote controlling of mobile equipments
Wireless communication and connection of measuring devices (multimeters, oscilloscopes and others) or portable devices
In the following diagrams, some connection examples based on the CSW-H80 converter are shown.
