what 
about using a serial - ethernet - 
wirelessbridge/// wireless 
router - server
since 
your only talking about a scale, speed isn't an issue, go with the cheaper 
802.11b

Once 
it's all hooked, you establish a link from UV - scale via a socket 
connection

  We 
  are considering connecting a scale [used to weigh parts] having an RS-232 port 
  to our HP Unix, UniVerse-based ERP system.
  
  Digiappears to have the best unit to go from 
  serial to ethernet. While we do have an HP serial port "hub", I would 
  rather not wire a serial home-run from the server to the 
  scale.
  
  Thus, I seek suggestions on voodoo to best make a 
  connection between say UniBasic and/or UniObjects and a serial or ethernet 
  device.

I just got
a digiport server running on Universe/Linux. We have a door/people counter on it and an RF mux. We used cat5 basic wiring with rj45 to
db25 converters. Pins 2, 3, 7 (tx,
rx, sig gnd) are all that were needed.
If the digi driver installs properly and such it should be pretty
simple.

  Is a 
  "socket connection" accomplished via UniObjects ?
  
  Thanks for the advisroy on the wireless Sena device. 
  Itcosts $399 versus $160 for the Digi unit.
