Figure 10: "Set" Command Overview and Implementation
Show: Figure 11 shows an example of this command, which displays current
configuration information. Some of this information (IP Address, Netmask and
Gateway) is configurable via the “set” command. The “Firmware Version” field
indicates the unit’s current application firmware version. The “Ping
Configuration” field indicates whether or not the ability to remotely configure the
unit via the ARP method is currently allowed (refer to section 12.1).
Figure 11: "Show" Command Overview
Xmodem: The “xmodem” command allows unit configuration files to be
transferred between the interface and a PC. As Xmodem is a serial protocol,
the xmodem command only applies to the serial console (RS232 port).
Whenever unit configuration is completed, it is highly recommended that a
backup copy of the configuration file be downloaded from the unit to a PC. One
reason for this is in case it becomes necessary to restore the file to the unit’s
file system later (such as if the unit’s internal backup battery becomes
exhausted and requires replacement). Another reason is that it may be
desirable to load multiple units with the same configuration. Configuration files
contain all point and port settings (but not network configuration information,
such as IP address). A downloaded configuration file can be uploaded to any
TOSVERT-300MVi Multiprotocol Ethernet and Modbus RTU Interface, allowing
the user to clone multiple units with the same configuration.
