Technical Support
We want you to get the maximum performance from your products. So
if you run into technical difficulties, we are here to help. For most
frequently asked questions you can easily find answers in your
product documentation. These answers are normally a lot more
detailed than the ones we can give over the phone.
Please consult this manual first. If you still cannot find the answer,
gather all the information or questions that apply to your problem and,
with the product close at hand, call your dealer. Our dealers are well
trained and ready to give you the support you need to get the most
from your Advantech products. In fact, most problems reported are
minor and are able to be easily solved over the phone.
In addition, free technical support is available from Advantech
engineers every business day. We are always ready to give advice on
application requirements or specific information on the installation and
operation of any of our products.
Product Warranty
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its
products 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 other than repair personnel authorized by
Advantech, or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or
improper installation. Advantech assumes no liability as a conse-
quence of such events under the terms of this Warranty.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous
testing, most of our customers never need to use our repair service. If
an Advantech product ever does prove 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 materi-
als, 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 (e.g. type
of PC, CPU speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and
software used etc.). Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen
messages you get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual,
product, and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, you have to request an
RMA number. When requesting an RMA (Return Material Authori-
zation) number, please access ADVANTECH’s RMA website: http://
www.advantech.com.tw/rma. If the web sever is shut down, please
contact our office directly. You should fill in the “Problem Repair
Form”,describing in detail the application environment, configura-
tion, and problems encountered. Note that error descriptions such as
“does not work” and “failure” are so general that we are then
required to apply our internal standard repair process.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a completely filled-out Repair
and Replacement Order Card and a photocopy of dated proof of
purchase (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A
product returned without dated proof of purchase is not eligible for
warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and
ship it prepaid to your dealer.

Overview
1.1 Introduction
The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is a light-
ning fast and cost effective data gateway between RS-
232/422/485 and Ethernet interfaces. This unit imme-
diately upgrades your existing device(s) to the Ethernet
world. Functionally transparent and efficient, the
ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is specially
designed for remotely controlling and monitoring de-
vices via the Internet.
The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 provides
one, two or four RS-232/485/422 serial ports that can
each be easily configured for your needs. For increas-
ing the reliability of systems, the ADAM-4570 also pro-
vides three significant functions: Host idle, Device idle
and Auto-reconnect. The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/
EDG-4504 also supports transmission speeds up to 230
Kbps, meeting the demand for today’s high-speed ex-
change. Users can use a Windows utility to configure
the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 without
need for further programming. The ADAM-4570/
ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 not only protects your cur-
rent hardware investment but also ensures future net-
work expandability. Since the protocol conversion is
transparent, all existing devices can be seamlessly inte-
grated into the Ethernet network. Therefore, the
ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 can be used
in security systems, factory automation, SCADA, trans-
portation and more.
The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 inte-
grates both your existing human-machine interface soft-
ware (HMI) and RS-232/422/485 system architecture
with an Ethernet network. The result helps save cabling
space and software development cost. The ADAM-
4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 also provides a high-
performance RISC CPU and real time operating sys-
tem to reduce CPU load. These components make the
ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 more stable
and reliable. Another benefit is the ADAM-4570/
ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 allows users to remotely
download programs to a designated device via Ethernet.
This reduces the need for on-site maintenance and di-
agnosis. In addition, the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/
EDG-4504 comes with a Windows configuration and
port-mapping utility. This configuration tool can auto-
detect all Ethernet Data Gateway products on a local
network. It also lets users easily adjust all settings. The
port mapping utility helps to set up COM ports for one
Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP platform. This helps us-
ers manage all ports to meet their needs.
Host/Device Idle Protection empowers the reliabil-
ity of system (ADAM-4570)
For improving the stability of systems, users usually have
to spend lots of effort to build up “Redundant” func-
tionality. Now, the ADAM-4570 provides new pow-
erful functions that help users build up redundant sys-
tems fast and easily: The new functions are Host idle &
Device idle.
The purpose of the “Host idle switch” function is to
prevent system hang-up from occurring due to applica-
tion program failure. If the application program fails,
the ADAM-4570 will cut off the connection between
the host PC and the ADAM-4570. Another PC can
then start to access the same ADAM-4570. Also, if
4 ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 Users Manual
the serial device or communication between the device and the
ADAM-4570 fails, the “Device Idle” function will switch the
communication port from one port to another port to keep com-
municating with another device automatically. Thus, another de-
vice can send data to the ADAM-4570.
Auto-reconnect after networking breaks
Sometimes, the system crashes because the ADAM-4570/
ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is interrupted or powered-off by ac-
cident. The ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 provides
an “Auto-reconnect” function to solve this problem. When the
ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 is powered-off acci-
dentally, the driver will keep trying to reconnect the ADAM-
4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 automatically. When the
ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504 recovers or is pow-
ered-on, due to this auto-reconnect function, the host PC can
send commands to the ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/EDG-4504
again. This function enhances the reliability of the system.
Auto-detect Ethernet Data Gateway products
The configuration utility can search all the Ethernet Data Gate-
way devices on the network automatically and configure them
according to the current network status, saving your effort to
acquire the status information yourself.
Easy to diagnose the communication situation
If this test item is selected, an internal test will be done on the
RS-232 serial port, and the result (successful or failed) will be
displayed when the test is completed. If this test item is selected,
an external test will also be done to check that the connection
signals for each port are working properly. For the external test,
you will need to connect each port to a loopback tester. The test
Chapter 1 Introduction 5
is divided into two parts: Signal test and Communication Param-
eters test. If the results are OK, users can be sure the communi-
cation quality between host PC and ADAM-4570/ 4571 is OK.
Easy to maintain by downloading firmware remotely
Advantech continually upgrades ADAM-4570/ADAM-4571/
EDG-4504’s firmware to keep pace with the ever-expanding
world of computing. You can use the Download function located
on the Port Mapping utility to carry out the upgrade procedure.
Please access Advantech’s Web site to download the required
computer file and then follow the instructions.
