Hardware Setup Ethernet LAN Ethernet cable cable RS-232 cable ESR902 PC Serial Device Figure 2. Typical Hardware Setup Step 1: Connect the Serial Server to the network using a standard network cable. Step 2: Connect the Serial Server to the RS-232 port on the serial device. N NNo oot tte ee: :: If the serial device is configured as a DCE use a straight-through serial cable. If the serial device is configured as a DTE use a crossover (null modem) cable. Step 3: Set the Run/Console DIP switch to the Run position. Step 4: Apply power to the Serial Server. Software Installation Using the CD included with the Serial Server, install the VLINX Manager software on the configuring computer.

It will automatically search for any reachable (ESP or ESR) Serial Servers. A list of all Serial Servers connected to the LAN will appear in the Serial Server List window. Step 2: Double click the desired Serial Server port on the list to bring up the Server Properties configuration screen. Figure 3. The Server Properties Window Step 3: Change the Server Properties as required. • Enable DHCP to allow the Serial Server to generate its own IP address OR • Obtain appropriate static IP, Netmask and Gateway addresses from your Network Administrator (recommended) • Set the Serial Port Mode property to RS-232 to match the serial device connected to the Serial Server. • Set Baud Rate, Data/Parity/Stop, and Flow Control to match the configuration of the serial device connected to the Serial Server port Step 4: When the parameters have been set, click Update. Following the prompts in the dialogue boxes, Restart the Serial Server and Search all reachable servers again.

Each port must be configured separately. Install Virtual COM Ports on PC Step 1: From the Windows Start menu, run the Install Virtual COM Ports utility included with the VLINX software, Step 2: Search for all servers on the network Step 3: Select a port and map it to an unused COM port (e.g. Port 15). Configure it for TCP protocol and the appropriate IP address (determined in the last section). Figure 4. Configuring the Virtual COM Port Check Communications Step 1: From the Windows Start menu, run HyperTerminal Step 2: Configure HyperTerminal to connect using the COM port configured in the last section (e.g. Port 15). Step 3: Set Baud Rate, Data/Parity/Stop, and Flow Control to match the configuration of the serial device connected to the Serial Server serial port. Step 4: Communications with the serial device should now be operational.
