3.2 Discovering Serial Device Servers
3.2.1 Auto Searching
Advantech Serial Device Server Configuration Utility will automatically search all the
EKI-1000, ADAM-4570 and EDG-4500 series device servers on the network and
show them on the Serial Device Server List Area of the utility. The utility provides an
auto-search function to show your device(s) by simply executing the configuration
utility program from the
Start Menu .
From here all device on the same network domain will be searched and display on
Device Server List Area. You can click on the device name to show the features of
the specific device. Click on the “+” before the model name (e.g. EKI-1524), and the
utility will expand the tree structure to show the individual device name. Click on the
“-” before the model name (e.g. EKI-1524), and the utility will collapse the tree struc-
ture.
For example, the EKI-1524 in this figure is shown “EKI-1524-A6A262” after
expanding the tree structure.
Note! Please reserve TCP/UDP port 5048 and 5058 in your Ethernet network,
configuration utility will use these ports to communicate with Advantech
EKI-1000, ADAM-4570, and EDG-4500 serial device servers.
Note! When you run the Configuration Utility for the first time, the default
device name is “MAC ID”. In this case, the device name “EKI-1524-
A6A262” means the device “MAC ID” is “00 D0 C9 A6 A2 62”. You can
change the default device name in the System Tab of Device Properties.
