the Terminal port on the rear panel display and select Dev ice Settings. Change the Serial P ort Rate to the new desired speed
and click OK. Now go to F ile
Upload to load the change to the unit.
[6] When the progress bar reaches the end, there will be no upload confirmation message, as the connection speed of DbMgr is
now different to the connection speed of the unit. Close down the Connected to Device window and reconnect to the unit (see step
[2] above). DbMgr will cycle the port rates until it finds the correct one.
Note: The upload and download time can also be increased by changing the Upload Method from Slow to Fast
in DbMgr. Go to View
Properties
General to find this option.
5.8. Connecting via IP
DataBand EV has default IP settings which allow a DbMgr IP management connection to be made straight out of the box. The
default settings are:
IP Address:
192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask:
255.255.0.0
Gateway:
0.0.0.0
Please follow these steps to configure DbMgr for connection to the DataBand EV:
1. Go to View
P roperties
Terminal
TCP /IP
Dev ice IP Addresses. If the default IP address is already configured
in the list, exit this menu. If the default IP address is not shown, click Add and enter the IP address and an Identifier for it. Click
OK to the open windows and the IP address will be added to the list.
Note: The New IP Port option changes the TCP port which DbMgr uses for management traffic. This option
should only be changed from the default setting of 3001 if using a third party terminal server for management.
Patapsco units always use TCP port 3001 for management traffic.
2. Go to the Dev ices in W orld map. Hover the mouse cursor over the Device node and right-click. Now select P roperties
IP
List. Highlight the default IP address and click OK.
3. Select the green Dev ices in W orld window and double click on the Device Node. At this point, the default login timeout of 30
minutes is displayed. The login timer is a security feature to prevent multiple users from not being able to access a unit. Change
the value if required. Entering a login time of 0 will make DbMgr never automatically log out the connection.

4. DbMgr will initialize a IP connection to the DataBand EV. If the connection is successful, the Connected to Dev ice window will
appear.
