LAN NETWORK CONFIGURATION...
There are 2 ways of configuring the TR
-
1000 terminal. Firstly, you can use the Lantronix setup utility DeviceInstaller. This is an
installable program that allows you to search, assign IP addresses and configure the LAN
port of the terminal. Secondly, you can establish a Telnet connection to port 9999 follow-
ing these instructions.
The TR
-
1000 terminals are shipped with the default IP address of
0.0.0.0
.
This value
specifies that the unit should determine it’s IP address from a DHCP server. If the IP Ad-
dress of the TR
-
1000 terminal is unknown or undefined, the following sets a temporary IP
address:
a
) Set a static ARP with the desired IP address using the hardware address of the
TR
-
1000 terminal, which is printed on the product label. Below is the command example
for WinNT/Win95, using the DOS prompt, when the hardware address of the TR
-
1000
terminal is
00
-
20
-
4A
-
02
-
64
-
0B
and the required IP address is
191.12.3.77
.
NOTE
: In order for the ARP command to work with some versions of Windows, the
ARP table on the PC must have at least one IP address defined other than its own.
Type “
arp
-
a
" at the DOS command prompt to verify that there is at least one entry
in the ARP table. If there is no other entry beside the local machine, ping another IP ma-
chine on your network to build the ARP table. This has to be a host other than the ma-
chine on which you are working. Once there is at least one entry in the ARP table, use
the following command to ARP an IP address to the TR
-
1000 terminal.

) Open a Telnet connection to port number 1. This connection will fail within 5
seconds but the TR
-
1000 terminal will change its IP address to the desired one designat-
ed in that step.
telnet 191.12.3.77 1
c
) Open a Telnet connection to port 9999 and set all required parameters as shown
on page 17.
telnet 191.12.3.77 9999
NOTE
: The temporary IP address is discarded after every power reset of the TR
-
1000 terminal. Be sure to log into the TR
-
1000 terminal and store the parameters to make
the changes permanent.
