Equinox ESP-2 MI Serial Hub Installation Guide
The INIT button on the front panel can be used to remove configured information from an ESP
unit. The ESP stores nonvolatile data such as SNMP community name, system contact and IP
address in the EEPROM. This information can be erased by pressing the
INIT button.
NOTE: Pressing the INIT button will interrupt ESP operation and cause reinitialization to occur.
When the INIT button is first pressed, the ONLINE LED will begin to blink to confirm that you
have pressed the INIT button. As the INIT button remains pressed, the ONLINE LED will blink
at a faster rate. After approximately 12 seconds, the ONLINE LED will turn off. At this point, all
nonvolatile information will be reset to the factory defaults and the unit will immediately reboot.
The RESET button on the front panel can be used to reset the ESP. Pushing this button will
cause an immediate reboot.
You may also reinitialize and reset the unit via the web interface.
Installing and Configuring Drivers
During the automated driver installation and configuration process, you may enable or disable
the one port option. If you enable the one port option, all further installation and configuration
operations will only affect port 1. Port 2 will be unusable and will not be shown in the
configuration operations.
As described in Changing the Interface Settings , the port interface type (RS-232, RS-422 or
RS-485) is selected by jumpers inside the unit. During software installation and configuration,
the current settings for each port are displayed (if you have the one port option enabled, the
display includes only port 1).
If a port’s hardware jumpers are set for RS-485, the display will allow you to choose the
transmitter/receiver mode: RTS or ADDC. (You may also change the RS-485 transfer mode via
the web interface.) See
Interfaces for more information. If a port’s hardware jumpers are set for
RS-232 or RS-422, you must change the jumper positions in the hardware to change the interface.
If you want to change the configuration after the drivers are installed, you may upgrade the
drivers to enable or disable the one port option without rebooting the unit. For ports that are
hardware configured for the RS-485 interface, you may also change the transmitter/receiver
mode. To access these options, click the
Configure button on the Properties page. See Using the
Web Interface for information about values you can change and display.
The following sections contain instructions for installing the ESP drivers. The ESP is supported
under Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows NT 4.0, OpenServer 5.0.5a or higher, UnixWare
7.0.1a or higher, Linux and AIX 4.3 and 5.1.
Windows 2000 and Windows XP
To install the Windows 2000/XP ESP driver, you must first run SETUP.EXE from the
Windows 2000/XP ESP driver diskette that is made using the Equinox SuperSerial CD-ROM.
SETUP.EXE will install the necessary Device Manager files for the ESP. Insert the diskette into
your A: drive, set your default drive to A: and run
SETUP
.
The Windows 2000 ESP driver is installed when you install the first ESP.
