1.4. Installation
The HXSP-2108E Serial to TCP/IP Serial Device Server use WINDOWS application
program ezConfig to set parameter through network. Therefore, user need install the
network card in computer and set network environment. If it needs connect many
HXSP-2108E equipments, user also need the network switchboard or HUB
1) Install the network card and set IP address and subnet mask. IP address can be set
casually if no connection with other computers in one identical network, such as:
192.168.X.Y (Note: In one identical local area network, X same, Y random, no
duplication), the code of the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 .If the computer is in
the local area network, please follow the network administrator’s setting.
2) Connect the computer network card to HXSP-2108E by Crossover Ethernet Cable or
connect directly the network switchboard or HUB by straight Ethernet cable.
3) Connect serial port of HXSP-2108E with serial port of embedded equipment or PC
machine by RS-232 cable (for testing HXSP-2108E-A)
4) HXSP-2108E would start to work after connecting power. PWR light is on and RUN
light twinkles, which demonstrate HXSP-2108E work normally. LINK light is on,
which demonstrates the correct physical connection. ACT light begins to twinkle
when there is data packet receiving and dispatching, which shows the smooth
connection between HXSP-2108E and identified network. Then, the connection
process is completed.
