[Elecraft] How does Ethernet to Serial Port device work?

[Lee Buller]

OK....now we are talking.  But, how does the Ethernet to Serial Port device work?  Of course you have to give the device an IP number on your network, but then how does the computer/program address the device to send the information to the K3  through its comm port?  Is there translation software to do that....or a command using the IP address?  This is interesting.  How does it work in the Winders program?  Somehow it has to have some intelligence to send the information to another specific IP address and then that address has to have the software to turn it into something usable...and visa versa.  HMMMMM.  Can anyone educate me or point me to the information?

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
