Operational Software Description

The VMIACC-5595 comes pre-loaded with both a Control Utility and a Graphical
User Interface (GUI) that allows you to monitor and control the hub assembly, using
either the RS232 or Ethernet port. The following screen shots are an illustration of the
software and its capabilities. The status and control data provided through the RS232
port is equivalent to that provided through the Ethernet port. However, due to the
limitation in standard terminal protocol, the data can not always be displayed in
exactly the same manner.

RS232 Serial Port Control Utility

You can use the RS232 serial port to control and monitor the hub. The Control Utility
shows status, enables and disables the transmitters, sets port mode, sets the bypass
mode and changes the communications settings (i.e., IP Address, NetMask and Baud
Rate).

1. First ensure that the VMIACC-5595 is OFF. To get started, from your task bar,

click

Start

and go to

Programs

then to

Accessories

.

2. From Accessories, go to Hyperterminal and click on
