3.1.2.1
Network Link (optional)
The VR2C can communicate with VUE remotely
over an IP network (such as the internet). An
RS232 or RS485 compatible serial device server
must be connected to the VR2C and accessible
through your local network connection before you
begin. Click the “Add Network Link” icon (shown at left) in the
Home tab and enter the necessary information in the Network Link window (shown at right) to setup the
link. A host address (DNS name or IP address) and port number will be required.
VUE will behave the same when communicating with the VR2C through the
network link as it would through a direct cable with the exception of the baud
rate. VUE cannot modify the configuration of any 3rd-party serial device
server. Therefore, baud rates cannot be changed through a network link
connection. Be sure to pre-configure the VR2C to the baud rate used by the
serial device server it will be connected to.
Wait for communication to be established. The
VR2C receiver’s information and status are
listed in the Receiver Tab. The tab name
contains the VR2C serial number to which
communication is established.
The speed of communication can be adjusted (if
desired) using the
Serial Options
window
(section 3.1.3).
