Local iServer
1. An IP address should be assigned to the iServer dynamically or statically (recommended).
2. Use a browser to access the Local iServer’s WEB page. Simply type the iServer’s IP
address at the browser’s URL location (i.e.
192.168.1.49
) followed by an
Enter
key.
You should then see the iServer’s main WEB page.
3. Click on the
Update
button.
4. Click on
Configuration
, you will be prompted with a
Password
(default is 12345678).
5. On the
Configuration
page, under
Serial Communication
section, make sure the
parameters such as Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, Flow Control, etc. match
with your attached serial device and its application software.
6. Make sure to set the
End Character (Hex)
to
00
and the
Timeout
to
0
.
7. Under
Terminal Server
section, set
Number of Connections
to
0
.
8. Under
Remote Access
section, set the
Remote Access
to
enable
, Enter the
Remote
IP address
(would be the IP address of the remote iServer,
192.168.1.50
), and use the
default
Remote Port
number
2000
.
9. Set
Connection Control
to
Reconnect
and set the
Connection Timeout
to a desired value.
The
Reconnect
option is used in Serial Tunneling and it applies only to the Local
iServer. If the tunneling connection between the two iServers goes down due to
network problems, power failure, etc., the Reconnect option will enable the Local
iServer to reconnect with the Remote iServer based on the specified time interval in
the
Connection Timeout
. For example, based on a timeout of 1000 x 10 ms (10
seconds), the Local iServer will continually attempt to reconnect and re-establish the
tunnel with the Remote iServer every 10 seconds.
10. Click on
Save
button for the changes to take place.
11. Initialize the serial device application software to establish the connection.
