It's been in use now for about 6 years - no problems - but I don't read from it, only write to it for A serial printer (our version has an lpd protocol built in).

We are running Unidata on a Unix machine. What I would like to do is network a scale in our receiving department. The "Serial to Ethernet" device would be set up as a server. The Unidata Unix machine would connect via a socket to the "Serial to Ethernet" device, pass "W*" to the Mettler Scale ( "give me the weight" ), the scale would then pass back the weight through the "Serial to Ethernet" device. If someone has done this and can provide any feedback, that would be spectacular. And if you know of a serial to Ethernet device that works well, please let me know.
