Summary

There are several phases to configuring an NV5256 router.

1 Use UniConfig (first) to define its network address and (second) to define its basic partitions

and specify its port types.

2 Then, use the NV9000 “browser” application or NV9000-SE Utilities to define its device con-

nections and “add” the router to the router control system.

We discuss UniConfig briefly. Refer to the NV9000 User’s Guide and the NV9000-SE Utilities
documentation for additional information.

UniConfig runs on a PC that you will connect to your router control card. In all cases, to launch
UniConfig, do either of the following:

1 Double-click UniConfig.exe in the software folder. The default pathname is:

C:\nvision\utils\UniConfig.exe

2 Double-click a UniConfig icon on your desktop:

UniConfig—Stage 1

You must assign IP addresses to the NV5256’s router control card(s) before you proceed with other
configuration steps.

1 Connect an RS-232 cable from your PC’s COM port (generally COM1) to the DE9 connector

(female) at the front of a router control card.
