Installation
NetLink OAI Gateway
The procedure for entering/changing the IP address of the NetLink OAI Gateway is
described below in section 4.2.
When the NetLink OAI Gateway has been configured, disconnect the terminal or PC
from the serial port, reconnect the communication cable between the NetLink OAI
Gateway and the application server, and reset the system. Normal communication
between the application server and OAI Gateway will resume.
3.3 Connect the NetLink OAI Gateway to the LAN
1. Using an RJ-45 cable, connect the
NETWORK
port of the Gateway to the
connecting port on the Ethernet switch.
2. Power up the entire system. Any components should go through their usual
diagnostic routine.
3.4 Connect the NetLink OAI Gateway Application
Server via RS-232 port
Some applications or systems may require an RS-232 connection between the application
server and the NetLink OAI Gateway. If your applications have the ability to
communicate OAI messages over TCP/IP, and do not require a serial connection, the RS-
232 cabling is not required and you may use the LAN connection (port 5456) via the
Ethernet switch for your applications.
Connect the application server to the Gateway’s serial port using a cable that conforms to
RS-232 standards for DTE to DTE connections (sometimes called a null modem cable).
