| Application Kit |
Enable your customers to monitor your sensors from their desktop. The Rabbit
Serial-to-Ethernet Kit provides the hardware and software necessary for
sensors and other serial devices to communicate via a LAN or other network.
The Multi-Port Serial-To-Ethernet Application Kit allows you to simultaneously
connect several serial devices to a network. Implementation of the optional
RabbitWeb software module makes it simple to web-enable your application
to allow monitoring and control of serial devices via the Internet or Intranet.
Other optional software modules help to secure your data through SSL and
encryption. See the software matrix on the other side for options.
The Multi-Port Serial-to-Ethernet Kit uses several sample application
programs to guide you through serial to Ethernet conversion. Powered
by the RCM3700 RabbitCore (from $32, qty.1000), the Kit also includes a prototyping board,
the Dynamic C development environment including a royalty-free TCP/IP
stack with source code, sample applications, temperature sensor demoboard,
required cables, and assorted accessories. The sample applications highlight
functionality such as RS-232 to Ethernet conversion, RS-485 to Ethernet
conversion, Ethernet to Serial Conversion, data gathering from serial
devices such as the included temperature sensor demoboard and a digital
voltmeter (not included), and web-enabling applications. A coupon good
for a discount on the RabbitWeb software module is included with the
application kit.

- Digital voltmeter and temperature sensor reader
- Binary & hexadecimal ASCII
- Configuration menu system
- Royalty-free TCP/IP stack with source code
Design Advantages
- 3 Step setup
- Minimal Ethernet experience required
- Software compatible with other Rabbit-based products
Designing with RabbitCores
The RabbitCore family of microprocessor core modules is designed to facilitate
rapid development and implementation of embedded systems. RabbitCores are powered
by high-performance 8-bit Rabbit microprocessors with extensive integrated features
and a C-friendly instruction set designed for use with the Dynamic C development
system. The RabbitCore mounts on a user-designed motherboard and acts as the
controlling microprocessor for the user's system. Small in size but packed with
powerful features, these core modules give designers a complete package for
control and communication. The integrated Ethernet port frees designers from
the limitations of serial-port communications and control and permits instant
local or worldwide connectivity using low-cost networking hardware. Embedded
systems using the Ethernet RabbitCore module can be controlled and monitored
(as well as programmed and debugged when using appropriate accessory hardware)
across any network or the Internet.
Programming the RCM3700
Programs are developed using our industry-proven Dynamic C software development
system. An extensive library of drivers and sample programs is provided, along
with royalty-free TCP/IP stack with source.
