Using PortVision DX

There are several ways to configure network information. Comtrol Technical Support recommends connecting
the ES7510-XT to a PC or laptop running

Windows

and installing PortVision DX for initial configuration.

This section shows how to use PortVision DX for initial network configuration and discusses how to:

Check the firmware and bootloader version on the ES7510-XT to verify that the latest versions are loaded
(

Download the latest version firmware and bootloader and upload it to the ES7510-XT (

Perform other PortVision DX tasks, such as:

-

Adding a new RocketLinx (managed or unmanaged) or a third party device to PortVision DX to
maintain device information on your network (

NetVision

NetVision, the configuration utility that only supported RocketLinx has been replaced by PortVision DX,
which supports all Comtrol Ethernet attached products.

If you are familiar with NetVision and wish to use it,

NetVision

is still available but has been moved to Legacy

status, meaning that it is no longer being maintained. If any bugs or issues exist, Technical Support will have
you load and use PortVision DX.
