Fig. 11  Administrative software dialog with a PC connected to the 

WiSER2400 wirelessly. 

Fig. 10 shows the administrative program interface when the PC is connected 
with the WiSER2400 through the serial port by a cable. The user first needs to 
select the proper COM port on the PC and its baud rate, byte size, and parity 
(as  shown  in  the  top  of  Fig.  10)  to  match  those  of  the  WiSER2400  before 
clicking on the “Connect” button to establish communication link between the 
administrative program and the WiSER2400 unit.  

 

Defaults:

 Baud Rate: 9600 / Data bits: 8 / Parity: none 

 
Alternatively,  the  user  can  click  on  the  “Detect…”  button  (as  shown  in  the 
bottom  of  Fig.  10)  to  have  the  software  automatically  detect  the  RS232 
parameter settings of the WiSER2400 at a given COM port.  The connection 
between  the  PC  and  the  WiSER2400  will  be  automatically  made  when  the 
administrative software succeeds in correctly detecting the parameter settings 
of the WiSER2400. Once the connection is made, the Connect button will turn 
into a Disconnect button.  Simply click on the “Disconnect” to terminate the link 
between the PC and the WiSER2400. 

Fig. 11 shows the administrative program interface when the PC is wirelessly 
connected  to  the  WiSER2400.    To  connect  the  PC  to  the  WiSER2400  via 
wireless networking, one needs to make sure that the WiSER2400 and the PC 
running the administrative software are on the same subnet. 
 
The default IP settings for the WiSER2400 are: 

 

IP address:

 

192.168.11.191 

Subnet mask:

 

255.255.255.0

 

 
The  administrative  program,  when  started  in  the  wireless  connection  mode, 
will automatically scan for all the available WiSER2400 units on the network. 
Alternatively, the user can force a scan by clicking the “Get MAC/IP” button as 
shown in the top of Fig. 4b. The scan results will be displayed in a pull-down 
list.  The  user  then  selects  from  the  menu  for  the  unit  to  be  configured  or 
monitored.
