Product Warranty (2 years)
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its prod-
ucts will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years
from the date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or
altered by persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech,
or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper instal-
lation. Advantech assumes no liability under the terms of this warranty as
a consequence of such events.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous test-
ing, most of our customers never need to use our repair service. If an
Advantech product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will
be billed according to the cost of replacement materials, service time and
freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For
example, CPU speed, Advantech products used, other hardware
and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any
onscreen messages you get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your man-
ual, product, and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return
merchandize authorization) number from your dealer. This allows
us to process your return more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and
Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date
(such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A product
returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for war-
ranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and
ship it prepaid to your dealer.

Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
This manual provides the necessary information to use EDG-4508(R)+
and EDG-4516(R)+. The Advantech Ethernet Data Gateway series (EDG
series) consists of fast and cost-effective data gateways between RS-232/
422/485 and Ethernet interfaces.
EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+ are part of the Ethernet Data Gate-
way (EDG) family of multiple port modules. They provide reliable and
cost-effective network connections for serial devices, allowing users to
extend their limited COM ports without changing the architecture of their
existing application (s). EDG immediately upgrades users' existing device
to the Internet world.
EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+ provide 8 and 16 serial ports respec-
tively, that can be easily configured. To increase the reliability of sys-
tems, EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+ provide two significant
functions:
• Auto-reconnection and IP access control.
• Support for transmission speeds up to 230 kbps (RS-485), meeting
today's demand for high-speed data exchanges.
1.2 Features
• Supports 8/16 channels (8 Channels for EDG-4508(R)+, 16 Channels
for EDG-4516(R)+).
• Supports RS-232/422/485
• 4 DI, 4 DO for alarm handling
• Web-based configuration
• Auto-reconnection: automatic connection recovery to network
• LEDs for power status and all ports Tx/Rx monitoring
• Console mode configuration
• Supports front wiring access for EDG-4508+ and EDG-4516+, rear
wiring access for EDG-4508R+ and EDG-4516R+

2.1 Understanding EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+
EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+ are advanced Ethernet data gateway
units. They extend traditional COM ports of a PC to Ethernet access.
Through Ethernet networking, users can control and monitor remote
serial devices and equipment over LAN or WAN.
Since EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+ are connected with the TCP/IP
protocol, you will have to know fundamental facts about Ethernet net-
working to get the server setup correctly.
To allow for easier configuration, we provide several system configura-
tion methods such as Configuration Utility, Web Configuration and Con-
sole mode Configuration. More details will be available in the following
chapters.
