NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Ethernet Configuration You must assign a valid IP address to NPort W2250/2150 before it will work in your network environment. Your network system administrator should provide you with an IP address and related settings for your network. The IP address must be unique within the network (otherwise, NPort W2250/2150 will not have a valid connection to the network).
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Netmask Setting E.g., 255.255.255.0 Web Console Configuration Factory Default Necessity 255.255.255.0 Required A netmask is used to group network hosts into subnets. When a packet is sent out over the network, the NPort W2250/2150 will use the netmask to check whether the desired TCP/IP host specified in the packet is on the same subnet as the NPort. If the address is on the same subnet, a connection is established directly between the NPort W2250/2150 and the host.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Network Configuration NPort W2250/2150 supports the IEEE 802.11b wireless network interface. The supported IP configurations are static and dynamic (BOOTP , DHCP, or BOOTP+DHCP ). Users can set up the IP configuration via the serial console, or the Web/Telnet consoles through the NPort’s Ethernet interface.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Infrastructure Mode In the following example, the NPort W2250/2150 communicates with the host computer via the AP. The host computer connects to the AP via an Ethernet connection, allowing serial data to be transmitted back and forth between the serial devices and host computer.

Authentication Select an authentication scheme of Open or Shared from the pull-down menu. WEP Mode By default, WEP Mode is disabled. When WEP Mode is enabled, data packets will be encrypted before send .you can select 64-bit or 128-bit. WEP Key Index Selects the Primary WEP Key for your wireless network.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Real COM Mode Port 01(02) TCP alive check time Setting 0 to 99 min Factory Default Necessity 7 min Optional 0 min: TCP connection is not closed due to an idle TCP connection. 1 to 99 min: NPort W2250/2150 automatically closes the TCP connection if there is no TCP activity for the given time. After the connection is closed, NPort W2250/2150 starts listening for another Real COM driver connection request.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration ATTENTION When Max connection is set to 2, 3, or 4, NPort W2250/2150 will use a “multi connection application” (i.e., 2, 3, or 4 hosts are allowed access to the port at the same time). When using a multi connection application, NPort W2250/2150 will use the serial communication parameters set in the console. All of the hosts connected to that port must use the same serial settings.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration than or equal to 10 ms. If you want to send a series of characters in the same packet, the serial device attached to NPort W2250/2150 should send that series of characters during a time interval less than the Force transmit timeout, and the total length of data must be less than or equal to NPort W2250/2150’s internal buffer size. The serial communication buffer size for NPort W2250/2150 is 1 KB per port.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration If the Inactivity time is set to 0, the current TCP connection is kept active until a connection close request is received. Although Inactivity time is disabled, the NPort W2250/2150 will check the connection status between the NPort W2250/2150 and remote host by sending “keep alive” packets periodically. If the remote host does not respond to the packet, NPort W2250/2150 assumes that the connection was closed down unintentionally.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration ATTENTION Delimiter 2 is optional. If left blank, then Delimiter 1 alone trips clearing of the buffer. If the size of the serial data received is greater than 1 KB, the NPort W2250/2150 will automatically pack the data and send it to the Ethernet. However, to use the delimiter function, you must at least enable Delimiter 1. If Delimiter 1 is left blank and Delimiter 2 is enabled, the delimiter function will not work properly.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Command port Setting 1 to 65535 Web Console Configuration Factory Default Necessity 966 Optional The “Command port” is a listen TCP port for IP-Serial Lib commands from the host. In order to prevent a TCP port conflict with other applications, the user can set the Command port to another port if needed. IP-Serial Lib will automatically check the Command Port on NPort W2250/2150 so that the user does not need to configure the program.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Inactivity time Setting 0 to 65535 ms Web Console Configuration Factory Default Necessity 0 ms Optional 0 ms: TCP connection is not closed due to an idle serial line. 0-65535 ms: NPort W2250/2150 automatically closes the TCP connection if there is no serial data activity for the given time. After the connection is closed, NPort W2250/2150 starts listening for another host’s TCP connection.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Force transmit Setting 0 to 65535 ms Web Console Configuration Factory Default Necessity 0 Optional 0: Disable force transmit timeout. 1 to 65535: Forces the NPort W2250/2150’s TCP/IP protocol software to try to pack serial data received during the specified time into the same data frame. This parameter defines the time interval during which NPort W2250/2150 fetches the serial data from its internal buffer.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration UDP Mode Data Packing Delimiter 1/2 Setting 00 to FF (hex) Factory Default Necessity None Optional Once the NPort W2250/2150 receives both delimiters through its serial port, it immediately packs all data currently in its buffer and sends it to the NPort W2250/2150’s Ethernet port. ATTENTION Delimiter 2 is optional. If left blank, then Delimiter 1 alone trips clearing of the buffer.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration This parameter defines the time interval during which NPort W2250/2150 fetches the serial data from its internal buffer. If data is incoming through the serial port, NPort W2250/2150 stores the data in the internal buffer. NPort W2250/2150 transmits data stored in the buffer via TCP/IP, but only if the internal buffer is full or if the Force transmit time interval reaches the time specified under Force transmit timeout.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration Communication Parameters Port 01(02) Port alias Setting Factory Default Necessity 1 to 15 characters None Optional (e.g., PLC-No. 1) “Port alias” is included to allow easy identification of the serial devices that are connected to NPort W2250/2150’s serial port. Serial Parameters ATTENTION Check the serial communication parameters in your Serial Device’s user’s manual.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Parity Setting None, Odd, Even, Space, Mark Flow Control Setting None, RTS/CTS, DTR/DSR, XON/XOFF FIFO Setting Web Console Configuration Factory Default Necessity None Required Factory Default Necessity RTS/CTS Required Factory Default Necessity Enable, Disable Enable Required NPort W2250/2150’s serial ports provide a 16-byte FIFO both in the Tx and Rx directions.
NPort W2250/2150 Plus User’s Manual Web Console Configuration NPort W2250/2150 uses an IP address based filtering method to control access to itself. Accessible IP Settings allows you to add or block remote host IP addresses to prevent unauthorized access. Access to NPort W2250/2150 is controlled by IP address. That is, if a host’s IP address is in the accessible IP table, then the host will be allowed to access the NPort W2250/2150.
