The Star RE-100 Ethernet Converter User Manual provides setup, configuration, and troubleshooting instructions for the RE-100 serial-to-Ethernet devices.
The Star RE-100 series includes three variants – RE-100C (Pos), RE-100D (Standard) and RE-100E (Terminal). Each model converts a serial RS‑232 interface to an Ethernet RJ‑45 connection, allowing legacy equipment such as POS terminals to communicate over TCP/IP networks.
This manual covers hardware installation, serial and Ethernet configuration, API functions for parameter setting, and detailed troubleshooting steps including LED diagnostics and ping tests. Safety precautions and warranty information are also provided. This manual is written in Chinese.
| RS‑232 Interface | DB9 male connector |
|---|---|
| Ethernet Interface | RJ45, IEEE 802.3 10BASE‑T |
| Supported Baud Rates (C/D models) | 9600, 19200, 28800, 37600 bps |
| Power Consumption | 3 W |
| Dimensions | 120 mm × 72 mm × 32 mm |
The RE‑100 supports baud rates of 9600, 19200, 28800 and 37600 bps (C/D models) or 9600, 19200, 38400 and 57600 bps (E model) and the rate can be set via DIP switches or the configuration API.
Use the built‑in diagnostic ping function, check the LED indicators, and verify that the Ethernet and serial settings match the connected equipment.
The unit includes a male DB9 RS‑232 connector and an RJ45 Ethernet port that complies with IEEE 802.3 10BASE‑T.
The device consumes approximately 3 W during normal operation.
