SerialGate User Guide Ch. 8 Application SerialGate can be used in many practical applications in various fields. Here we present some of them. Com Port Redirector With COM Port Redirection, a user can use serial port connected to SerialGate on the network as if it is a serial port on PC. Install Com Port Redirector and set the following steps. (For installation, please refer to Com Port Redirector manual enclosed in CD. In the picture below, IP address of SerialGate is 192.168.0.
SerialGate User Guide In order to correspond to the Redirector setting of PC, change the setting in the first serial port of SerialGate as follows. TCP_Server (TCP/IP connection from PC to SerialGate) In PC’s socket program, connect the first serial port of SerialGate. Since socket number for the first port of SerialGate is default 4001, try to connect to SerialGate’s IP address and socket number 4001 when connecting from a PC to SerialGate.
SerialGate User Guide TCP_Client (TCP/IP Connection: SerialGate PC) Since it is a connection from SerialGate to a PC, change the Operation Mode to TCP_Client and register PC’s IP address and socket number to be connected. Check the communication speed of a serial device to be connected to serial port, and set it to Com Specification.
SerialGate User Guide Pair (Serial Line To Serial Line) This structure is mainly used when the cable length between PC and serial device is short so a user needs to extend the communication distance. This approach consists of two SerialGates connected in Pair. Setting for SerialGate 1 In order to perform Master features, change Operation Mode to Pari_Master.
SerialGate User Guide Setting for SerialGate 2 In order to wait for Master connection, set Operation Mode to Pari_Slave and register the socket number to be connected in Local Socket Port.
SerialGate User Guide Ch. 9 Appendix Troubleshooting This section describes procedures for troubleshooting problems you may encounter with SerialGate. Troubleshooting Installation Problems If you cannot access the connected serial device via SerialGate, first check the network connection and cabling.
SerialGate User Guide The problem may be the result of mismatched or duplicate IP addresses. Verify that the IP address is correctly loaded into SerialGate (via the displayed or printed configu ration information or through the remote console), and make sure that no other nodes on the network have this address (duplicate addresses are the biggest cause of TCP/ IP connectivity problems). If the IP address is not correct, then check whether the lo ading procedure was properly executed.
SerialGate User Guide 5) Connect to SerialGate via Telnet, using correct username and password. (Default: eddy, 99999999) 6) After the login, you are already at the default directory where the firmware resides. Update can start right away. 7) Issue a command ‘ls’ to make sure firmware files are both successfully uploaded. 8) Use ‘upgrade’ command to write this file into SerialGate’s Flash memory. Upgrade application automatically detects whether the given firmware is kernel or file system.
