7.4.1 Accessing the configuration menu via the serial Interface
Access to the configuration menu over the serial interface can be
obtained using Scream! or any serial terminal emulator, examples of
which are given in section 7.5 on page 108. A special “Auxiliary
terminal breakout cable” is required: please contact Güralp Systems
technical support for details.
First, with the power to the digitiser turned off, connect the auxiliary
terminal breakout cable to the PC and start the emulator. Configure
the emulator for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity bit and one stop bit
(8-N-1), regardless of the configured settings of the networking
module. Next, hold down the
key while turning on the power to
the digitiser. After a few seconds, a banner will appear, showing the
MAC address of the network interface, along with software and library
version information. Press the Enter key to access the set-up menu. If
you do not press a key, the system will proceed to boot normally.
7.4.2 Configuring the network interfaces
Once you have access to the networking module's configuration menu,
you can configure it with its proper settings.
The networking module has two serial channels. Channel 1 (normally
accessible via TCP port 10001) is exposed on the power port of the
breakout box. (This is the channel that you are currently using if you
have followed the instructions in the previous section).
Channel 2 (normally accessible via TCP port 10002) is connected to
the data output of the digitiser when no other serial device is
connected. It is disconnected when the digitiser detects that Scream!
or a terminal emulator is connected, thus disabling data flow over the
network.
During the configuration process, you are prompted, in turn, for every
value in the current section. If you are unsure at any point, pressing
the Enter key will retain the current value. Please note that many
values need to be entered using special codes. These are all
documented in the relevant Lantronix manuals.
