Connect Tech Blue Heat/Net User’s Manual
30 Revision 0.13
This application is used to change the configuration settings of Blue Heat/Net units by
connecting to a serial port on the Blue Heat/Net from a terminal (or terminal emulation program
on a PC).
Configuration Data Space (CDS)
This is the area, in non-volatile (Flash) memory, which stores the configuration parameters.
CDS (Configuration Data Space)
Description
The Blue Heat/Net has a number of configuration parameters which are stored in a
Non-Volatile
(Flash memory) area. (See appendix for list of parameters)
The
CDS
area is stored
redundantly
in the Flash memory along with a
CRC-
style checksum to
ensure data integrity.
Access to CDS Parameters
The parameters stored in the
CDS
can be changed through the use of the following configuration
tools:
SCM Serial Configuration Manager
TCM Telnet Configuration Manager
WCM Web Configuration Manager
These three methods allow the user to change Configuration Parameters by whichever method is
most convenient. In some cases several methods will be employed during different stages of the
setup of the Blue Heat/Net, for example:
The SCM may be employed in the beginning when the unit is not connected to a network and
various networking parameters need to be set up prior to connection to a network.
TCM or WCM may be employed after the unit is connected to a network, possibly to modify
other settings related to Serial Ports, Bootup settings or others.
More information about the operation of the
SCM, TCM
and
WCM
follows
.
Note:
When CDS Parameters are changed via the SCM, TCM
or WCM, some settings will not take effect until the Blue
Heat/Net is next rebooted or powered up.
