Transforming Connectivity with the RS-WF62
In a world increasingly reliant on wireless communication, Ratoc Systems has taken a significant step forward with the introduction of the
RS-WF62 Wi-Fi to RS-232C Adapter, slated for release in late December 2025. This innovative device allows users to connect their serial equipment via Wi-Fi, providing a seamless interface between older technology and modern wireless networks.
A Legacy of Innovation
Since launching the
REX-WF60 in 2013, Ratoc Systems has been at the forefront of wireless solutions for RS-232C devices. The RS-WF62 is a refined version of its predecessor, offering upgraded features that make it more versatile and user-friendly than ever before.
Key Enhancements
1.
Support for 7-Bit Data Transmission: Unlike the older model, which only supported 8-bit data, the RS-WF62 accommodates 7-bit data transmissions as well. This is essential for integrating with vintage serial equipment, broadening its compatibility range.
2.
Improved Wi-Fi Security in Access Point Mode: The RS-WF62 significantly enhances Wi-Fi security protocols by supporting WPA, WPA2, and WPA3. This makes it a reliable choice for sensitive data transfers, an important consideration for businesses and professionals.
3.
Redesigned LED Indicator Layout: The placement of the LED indicators has been improved, ensuring visibility regardless of the orientation of the device. This is a minor change that can have a substantial impact on user experience by allowing quick and easy monitoring of data transmissions.
4.
Expanded Power Input Range: The power input has been enhanced to accept voltages from 5V to 12V, providing greater flexibility and accommodating a wider array of devices.
Comprehensive Compatibility
The RS-WF62 is compatible with a myriad of devices that have an RS-232C port, including backup power systems, magnetic card readers, serial printers, and electronic scales. However, it’s important to note that devices relying on DTR/DSR for communication control will not work with this adapter.
Versatile Modes of Operation
With functionality in both
Access Point Mode and
Infrastructure Mode, the RS-WF62 is capable of serving as a standalone access point or connecting to existing Wi-Fi networks. This dual functionality enhances its usability in various operational settings, whether in industrial environments or office setups.
Extensive Software Support
To complement the hardware, Ratoc Systems provides a comprehensive suite of software tools. Users can download Windows serial parameter settings, a simple terminal application, and sample programs, facilitating easier integration into their existing workflows. Additionally, utility software is available for both iOS and Android devices, making the system accessible from multiple platforms.
Commitment to Quality and Innovation
Ratoc Systems, founded in 1983 and based in Osaka, has a long-standing commitment to the development and supply of interfaces for RS-232C devices. The company continues to innovate and adapt to meet the evolving needs of its customers in various industries. As connectivity solutions become increasingly vital, the RS-WF62 stands as a testament to Ratoc's dedication to providing robust and reliable products that bridge the gap between old and new technologies.
