CIM Maxima 841 and 861 Network Kit with Lantronix UDS1100

The CIM Maxima 841 and 861 network kit adds Ethernet TCP/IP connectivity to your embosser using a Lantronix UDS1100 device server and a specially adapted serial cable.

This solution connects a CIM Maxima 841 or CIM Maxima 861 embosser to a local network without modifying its original serial interface. As a result, the host application can communicate with the embosser through the network instead of relying on a long, direct serial connection.

The Lantronix UDS1100 acts as a bridge between the embosser’s serial interface and the Ethernet network. Its serial tunnelling function encapsulates serial data into packets and transports it over Ethernet.

🌐 TCP/IP Connectivity for Your CIM Maxima Embosser

The CIM Maxima 841 and 861 network kit integrates a serial embosser into a modern network infrastructure. Therefore, you can position the equipment where production requirements demand rather than immediately beside the host workstation.
The Lantronix UDS1100 provides one serial port and a 10/100 Ethernet RJ45 interface. It supports RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communications. However, this kit uses the serial communication mode required by the applicable CIM Maxima embosser.

🛡️ CIM Maxima 841 and 861 Network Kit Highlights

• Compatible with the CIM Maxima 841 embosser.
• Compatible with the CIM Maxima 861 embosser.
• Serial cable specifically adapted for the supported embossers.
• Converts serial communication for transport over Ethernet TCP/IP.
• Single-port Lantronix UDS1100 device server.
• 10/100 Ethernet RJ45 interface.
• Serial tunnelling over the network.
• Configuration through a web browser, Telnet, or serial utility.
• Purpose-built solution that preserves the use of an existing serial embosser.

✅ User Benefits

This kit helps organizations modernize embosser connectivity without replacing specialized equipment that remains operational.

• Simplified modernization: add network connectivity to a serial embosser.
• Flexible installation: locate the embosser according to production requirements instead of serial cable proximity.
• Reduced serial cabling: use the local Ethernet infrastructure to carry communications.
• Application-specific integration: use a cable designed for CIM Maxima 841 and CIM Maxima 861 embossers.
• Centralized configuration: manage supported network settings through the device server’s configuration tools.

📦 What’s Included

The kit includes:

• One Lantronix UDS1100 device server.
• One serial cable specifically adapted for CIM Maxima 841 and CIM Maxima 861 embossers.
• Device server power supply.
• Documentation required to deploy the kit.
• The included cable uses wiring adapted to the CIM Maxima application. A generic serial cable does not guarantee equivalent compatibility

⚙️ Compatibility and Integration

This kit supports:

• CIM Maxima 841
• CIM Maxima 861

The Lantronix UDS1100 can carry serial communications over Ethernet through a network tunnel. It can also work with Lantronix Com Port Redirector software, which redirects Windows applications designed for a COM port to equipment connected through the device server.

🚀 How the Kit Works

The solution uses three main components:

• The specialized cable connects the CIM Maxima embosser to the serial port on the Lantronix UDS1100.
• The device server’s RJ45 Ethernet port connects to the local network.
• The Lantronix UDS1100 then carries serial data over Ethernet through serial tunnelling.

Consequently, the CIM Maxima 841 and 861 network kit provides a TCP/IP communication path while retaining the embosser’s serial interface.
