DSL Digital Subscriber Line Various technology protocols for high-speed data, voice and video transmission over ordinary twisted-pair copper POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) telephone wires. Encryption key An alphanumeric (letters and/or numbers) series that enables data to be encrypted and then decrypted so it can be safely shared among members of a network.
Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual connection-oriented services between two nodes on the network. SPX is used primarily by client/server applications. ISDN A type of broadband Internet connection that provides digital service from the customer's premises to the dial-up telephone network. ISDN uses standard POTS copper wiring to deliver voice, data or video.
Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual facility so that access points can be optimally placed. SSL Secure Sockets Layer. A commonly used encryption scheme used by many online retail and banking sites to protect the financial integrity of transactions. When an SSL session begins, the server sends its public key to the browser.
Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual Appendix D - Expansion I/O Registers Adding 115S Expansion I/O modules to the 450U-E the I/O will automatically be added to the 450U-E modules I/O store. To calculate the register location, add the address of the I/O point from the tables below to the offset. The offset ids calculated by finding the address of the Modbus Slave X 20. E.g1. Digital input #1 on an 115S-11 with address 5 would be: (5x20) +10001 = 10101 E.g2.

Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual 65288 FF08 Memory Parity Error Specialized, use in conjunction with function codes 20 and 21 and reference type 6, to indicate that the extended file area failed to pass a consistency check. 65290 FF0A Gateway Path Unavailable Specialized, use in conjunction with gateways. Indicates that the gateway was unable to allocate an internal communication path from the input port to the output port for processing the request.
Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual Appendix G - External Iperf Test This Appendix shows how to set up and use the Iperf application to test the throughput of Ethernet Modems. Iperf is a tool used to measure the throughput and quality of a network link. Jperf can be used in conjunction with Iperf to graphically display the Iperf data results. This instruction covers both Iperf and Jperf; it does not cover the setup and configuration of the modems.
Elpro Technologies 450U-E Wireless Ethernet Modem & Device Server User Manual This will run a test over the radio link to the Server PC and report back results as seen in Figure 99. These results show the Bandwidth (Throughput) of the test as 19.2 Kbits/sec. Figure 99 - Iperf Results It is recommended that the test be run a number of times to get an average. JPerf Application Jperf is a graphical interface that runs over the top of Iperf. It will display a graph result from the Iperf test. -2.0.
