Thanks Didier,
Good suggestions and I have been considering something similar.

Graham,
There are a number of WiFi to serial modules like the one I use on my
Thunderbolt monitor: The Microchip WiFly RN-XV-171. Once configured (typically
using a PC), they will present a TCPIP port (TCP or UDP) from which you can get
and send data directly to the serial port.
Alternately, you can use Digi XBee modules that work like wireless RS232
isolators. I use the XSC Pro 900 MHz for a number of projects, including data
loggers that are out of WiFi range. You can get well over a mile in open space
with those. They are limited to 19200 bauds at the most.

I have been contemplating how I will would like to interface to the
KS-23461 devices using rs-422.
One option is a rs-422 to USB cable. Seems easy enough.
But another option I keep stumbling across is a rs-422/rs-232 to fast
ethernet such as:
http://www.transition.com/TransitionNetworks/Products2/Family.aspx?Name=SDSFE3110-120
Frankly, I have no first hand knowledge or experience with these
devices. First glance suggests that it might just be what I want - easy
access to the KS-23461 ports through a connection to my local network
without having a PC of some sort close by.
So, any first hand experience with such devices? Good idea or bad?
