TCP System Protocol:
The Com Port Redirector software must be installed when selecting the TCP
communications protocol. This software allows the PC or master application to
use the IP address of the CVM96-Ethernet as though it were a physical COM
port on the computer. This creates a communications tunnel, making a
transparent connection between both peripherals.
- Start installing and running the Com Port Redirector software from the disk
supplied with the equipment. Once it is installed the Com Port Redirector
located in
Start\Programs\Com Redirector\Configuration
is run.
Clicking on
Com Setup
and selecting the virtual series port/s
to be created. Once created click on “ok” (different virtual
ports are created, one per piece of equipment, depending on
the number of CVM96-Ethernet’s installed).
Then the “Add IP” button is clicked for each virtual port
created. In
Host
the IP for each of the installed equipment is
assigned. In TCPPort com port 11000, units are entered less
than the assigned Local port in the CVM96-Ethernet; i.e. a
local port must be assigned to the CVM96-Ethernet that may
vary between 14000 and 14009. Then a Local port varying
between 3000 and 3009 is assigned in the Com Port
redirector.
- Therefore if Local Port 14003 is assigned to the CVM96-Ethernet, in
TCPPort, 3003 must be entered as Local port. Then OK is clicked.
