Interesting.

I have also been thinking that it might not be too difficult to implement using Beaglebone Black, Raspberry PI, or even one or another flavour of Arduino. Lots of possibilities from simple to not so simple.

You can integrate that further than a cots one

Didier has a good suggestion as to the serial to Wifi adapter. I may
order one for my Z3801. Looking on Amazon, I see these two units that
are more reasonably priced:

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:

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?
