The DS110x Family of Programmable Serial Controllers

Inspired by Your Feedback

Building on the worldwide success of our earlier products, the DS110x family of Tibbo BASIC/C-programmable serial controllers integrates everything we learned from you about building serial device servers.

We learned that you wanted a compact device with a budgetary price tag and a range of available options to suit the needs of various applications. You named Wi-Fi, power-over-Ethernet (PoE), display, RS232, RS485, and DIN rail and wall mounting options.

The DS110x family packs your wishlist into a stylish housing that is a mere 90 x 48 x 25mm in size. Enjoy, it was built for you.

Programmable in
Tibbo BASIC and C

Feature-rich and easy-to-learn, the Tibbo BASIC and Tibbo C programming languages open up a world of application possibilities. Control serial devices and machinery. Collect, store, and manipulate data. Communicate with an AggreGate server, and more.

Ready to go

Coding not your thing? Use the preloaded Serial-over-IP (SoI) application or download one of our free, ready-to-use apps, like the Modbus Gateway. Our team of experts can also design an application for you. You spec it, we do the rest.

Value

The entry-level DS1100 offers all basic functionality at an attractive price point. It features a single-channel RS232 port and can be ordered with a PoE option.

Performance

The DS1101 and DS1102 are powerful and versatile. Available options include Wi-Fi connectivity, an OLED display, PoE, and multi-channel RS232 or RS232/422/485 ports.

Choice of serial ports

The DS110x family offers multiple serial port options:

DS1100 – simple RS232 port with power input
DS1101 – 3.5-channel RS232 port with power input/output
DS1102 – 3-channel RS232/422/485 port

Optional Wi-Fi

Looking to improve your system's reliability by providing an additional communication path in case the Ethernet link goes down? Planning to go all-wireless? Order your DS1101 or DS1102 with the Wi-Fi option.

Optional power-over-Ethernet (PoE)

Cut the power cord and power your DS110x directly through the Ethernet cable!

The DS110x devices' PoE module is a true 802.3af device. It is compatible with a wide range of PoE-enabled switches and "power inserters."

Optional OLED display

The available 96x32 OLED display is perfect for simple text and graphics.

Show messages, icons, status info, and prompts. To get inspired, see how we use the display in our Serial-over-IP (SoI) application.

Mounting not Optional

A DIN rail mounting plate is included with each DS110x device. Not just a slap-on afterthought, our DIN rail plate is artfully fused into the DS110x body and accentuates the device's appearance.

Placing your DS110x on a wall? One wall mounting plate also comes with each DS110x device. Permanent or semi-permanent installation can be achieved with four or two mounting screws, respectively.

Serial Interface	Single-channel RS232	3.5-channel RS232	3-channel RS232/ 2-channel RS422/ 1-channel RS485
Channels: Squeezing Multiple Serial Ports Onto a Single DB9 Devices supporting this feature have a single DB9M connector and are priced as single-port products, yet pack several independent serial channels. Have no use for those DSR and DTR lines? Turn them into RX and TX lines of an additional serial channel. Don't want CTS and RTS either? That's one more RX/TX pair! Our SoI application defines 15 different configurations or "port mappings" to choose from, starting from a standard single-channel configuration (RX, TX, CTS, RTS, DSR, DTR, and DCD) and ending with the 3.5-channel setup (RX, TX, RX2, TX2, RX3, TX3, and RX4). Splitting wires can be conveniently carried out with theTB1100 adaptor.
