Adding a KEPServerEX Device
In KEPServerEX, a “device” is a single PointScan module (either a PoinScan/100 series device or a
PointScan/200 series device). The steps for adding a device to a KEPServer “channel” are as follows:
(a) Click on the “New Device” button in the upper left hand portion of the KEPServerEX
window. See following figure.
Clicking on the “New Device” Button
(b) In the “New Device - Name” window, enter a device name that follows the stated
guidelines and then click on Next.
(c) In the “New Device - ID” window, enter the following, then click on Next:
If the device is a /100 series PointScan module that is connected to the Ethernet,
enter the IP address of the module that you configured in IOToolKit.
Example for “Dedicated” LAN: 10.1.0.1
Example for “Shared” LAN: 63.66.249.202
In both the “Dedicated” and “Shared” LAN examples, the PointScan/100 series
module was configured as Station 1 in IOToolKit.
If the device is a /200 series PointScan module [or a /100 series module
connected via RS485 communications], enter the IP address of the /100 series
Ethernet module to which it is connected, followed by a decimal point and the
device station number of the module that you configured in IOToolKit
Example for “Dedicated” LAN: 10.1.0.1.2
Example for “Shared” LAN: 63.66.249.202.2
In both the “Dedicated” and “Shared” LAN examples, the “.2” signifies that the
PointScan module is station number 2 in a string of modules connected via RS485.
(d) In the “New Device - Communication Parameters” window, accept the default parameters
and click on
(e) In the “New Device - TCP/IP” window, accept the default port number and click on
(f) In the “New Device - Block Sizes” window, accept the default parameters and click on
(g) In the “New Device - Summary” window, review the information for correctness and then
