1.2 Description  
This iServer board can be purchased as a stand alone unit, or as an option  
for an iLD monitor/controller (Embedded Ethernet iServer) with a RS485  
communication port interface. Some iLD Big Display monitors/controllers  
do not utilize RS485 communications. In such models, the RS485  
instructions do not apply.  
The Embedded Ethernet Server is designed to connect industrial devices with serial  
interfaces to the Ethernet network using the TCP/IP protocol. It contains an Ethernet  
Server and RS-485/422 interfaces.  
The standard features include:  
• Use standard Web Browser, TCP connection, HTTPGET DOS program or Telnet  
Simulation for network connectivity.  
• Install via RS-485/422 serial port connection.  
• Transfer data from RS-485/422 serial interface to TCP/IP using built-in socket server.  
• Use a standard home page or customize web page using special applets, which are  
available on our Web site.  
The following example illustrates how you can hookup the devices with serial interface  
on the net using the Ethernet Server:

2.4 Serial Communication Interfaces (For Models with RS485 Port)  
The iLD Big Display controller/monitor with the Embedded Ethernet Server option board  
support only RS485/422 interfaces. These standards define the electrical characteristics  
of a communication network. The RS485 port of the Ethernet Server is fully compatible  
for use with RS422 instruments. The RS485 is an extended version of the RS422  
communication standard which increases the allowable number of devices from 10 to  
32 by improving the electrical characteristics.  
• The RS485 standard (multi-point) allows one or more devices (multi-dropped) to be  
connected to the Ethernet Server using a two-wire connection (half-duplex) +Rx/+Tx  
and –Rx/-Tx. Use of RS485 communications allows up to 32 devices to connect to the  
Web Server with cable length up to 4000 feet long.  
Although the RS485 is commonly referred to as a "two wire" connection, the  
Web Server also provides a ground/return shield connection to use as a  
common connection for EMI noise protection.  
Table 2.2 shows some characteristics of the RS485 communication interface.

2.4.1 Wiring RS485 Interface  
RS485 interface uses a two-wire communication system (one for transmitting and one for  
receiving) plus a common wire to connect to the shield of the cable. It is recommended  
to use a shielded cable with one twisted pair.  
Use of twisted pair and shield will significantly improve noise immunity.  
Figure 2.3 shows multi-point, half-duplex RS485 interface connections for the iServer.

2.5 Network Communication Interfaces  
2.5.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout  
The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the iServer for network  
connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires.  
One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data  
signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.

PART 3  
NETWORK CONFIGURATION  
3.1 Network Protocols  
The iServer can be connected to the network using standard TCP/IP protocols. It also  
supports ARP, HTTP (WEB server), DHCP, DNS and Telnet protocols.  
3.2 Ethernet (MAC) Address  
MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number.  
When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates  
your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address. The MAC address can be  
found on the label of your device and contains 6 bytes (12 characters) of hexadecimal  
numbers XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX hex  
For example: 0A:0C:3D:0B:0A:0B  
Remove the small label with the default IP address and there will be room to put  
your IP address. See Figure 3.1.

3.3 DHCP  
DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol enables individual computers or devices to  
extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server). If the DHCP is enabled on  
your iServer, as soon as the iServer is connected to the network, there is an exchange of  
information between DHCP server and the iServer. During this process the IP address,  
the Gateway address, and the Subnet Mask will be assigned to the iServer by the DHCP  
server. Note that the DHCP server must be configured correctly to do such assignment.  
If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP must be disabled. The iServer is  
shipped with DHCP disabled (factory default). The DHCP can be enabled by setting the  
DIP switch # 3 to the “ON” position.

3.4 DNS  
DNS, Domain Name System enables individual computers and devices to be recognized  
over a network based on a specific name instead of an IP address. For example, instead  
of having to use http://192.168.1.200 (IP address), you would use only http://eis03ec or  
any eight character name stored as Host Name under Access Control menu in the  
iServer Home Page. The default DNS name for an iServer is "eis" followed by the last  
four digits of the MAC address of that particular iServer.  
1. It is very important to communicate with the network administrator in order to  
understand the DHCP and its existing configurations on the host server,  
before enabling the DHCP on the iServer.  
2. The iServers are shipped with a default static IP address of  
192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.  
3. On Novell networks or Windows 2000 where the DCHP is an updated  
function of DNS this feature may be beneficial since a particular name can be  
assigned eliminating the need for the IP address, as described in Section 3.4.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
3.5 IP Address  
Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address.  
This IP address is used to build a connection to the iServer’s serial port. Every computer  
using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address. It is divided into two portions, the  
network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer on the same network uses the  
same network ID. At the same time, all of them have a different host ID. For more details  
about the IP address see Appendix B.  
3.5.1 Default IP Address  
The iServer is shipped with a default IP address set to 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask  
of 255.255.255.0. If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet program to access  
the iServer using its default IP address, make sure that the PC from which you’re  
establishing the connection has an IP address that is in the same range as the iServer’s  
IP address (192.168.1.x, where x can be any number from 1 to 254.  
Your PC’s IP address cannot be the same as the iServer’s IP address).  
You also need to make sure that your PC’s Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. This is a  
good way to access the iServer over the network and make any configuration changes  
needed. If the factory default address is already in use on your network, use an Ethernet  
crossover cable between your computer and the iServer and modify the IP address or  
any other settings within the iServer.  
3.6 Port Number  
All TCP connections are defined by the IP address and a port number. A port number is  
an internal address that provides an interface between an application running on your  
computer and the network through the TCP/IP protocol.  
There are three default TCP socket port numbers assigned to the iServer:  
1. Port (socket) number 1000 when using HTTPGET program.  
2. Port (socket) number 2000 when trying to access your serial device connected to  
the serial port of the iServer.  
3. Port (socket) number 2002 when trying to access the iServer itself for reading or  
changing the settings. This can be done using Telnet application.  
Example: C:\>Telnet 192.168.1.200 2002

PART 4  
OPERATIONS  
An industrial device with serial interfaces (PLC, CNC controllers, PC, Data Display  
Devices, etc.) can be connected to the serial port of the Web Server.  
4.1 SERIAL INTERFACE CONFIGURATION - Communication Protocol  
A data communication protocol defines the rules and structure of messages used by all  
devices on a network for data exchange. A typical transaction will consist of a request to  
send from the MASTER followed by the response from one or more SLAVE devices.  
Either a single (point-to-point) or multi-drop network (multi-point) is possible.  
4.2 Command Structure  
There are different command types associated with communication between the  
Ethernet Server and your device shown in Table 4.1, which shows the Command Prefix

4.4 OPERATIONS  
This iServer can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s  
preference and network setup. It can be used in Telnet simulation mode where it  
emmulates serial communication operation over a network cable or directly from a Web  
browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer.  
If DHCP and DNS servers are used, the connection is very simple, you do not need to  
worry about IP address, MAC address, or network conflicts, all of these issues are solved  
for you by your network DHCP and DNS server. All that is left for you to do, is to use a  
straight/normal network cable to connect the device to a hub and power it up. Then you  
can go to your computer that is connected over the same network and from the MS-DOS  
Prompt window type "ping eisxxxx" followed by the last four digits from the MAC address  
located on the side or back of the device.  
C:\>ping eis03ec  
Pinging eis03ec with 32 bytes of data:  
Reply from eis03ec: bytes=32 time=15ms TTL=60  
Reply from eis03ec: bytes=32 time=8ms TTL=60  
Reply from eis03ec: bytes=32 time=8ms TTL=60  
Reply from eis03ec: bytes=32 time=8ms TTL=60  
Pinging statistics for eis03ec:  
Packets: Sent=4, Received=4, Lost=0 (0% loss)  
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:  
Minimum=8ms, Maximum=15ms, Average=9ms  
Figure 4.1 Pinging eis03ec MS-DOS Prompt  
This proves that the connection is proper and you can get into configuration or run mode  
using the Telnet or Web browser.  
4.5 Setup and Operation Using a Web Browser  
a) Start your web browser.  
b) From the browser you type http://eisxxxx using the last four-digits from the MAC  
address label located on the device if DHCP and DNS are used. If a static IP address  
is used, then simly type http://x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the iServer’s IP address.  
c) The Home Page, shown below, will be displayed.  
d) From the drop-down window you can select the type of device connected (iSeries,  
iDRN, iDRX, iR2, INFB, or iLD) then press Update to get to the Home Page.

4.5.4.A Serial Communication  
Baud Rate: The speed on the serial port and can be set from 300 to 115,200 bits/s  
(default is 9600 bits/s.)  
Data Bit: Options are 7 or 8 (default is 7 bits.)  
Parity: Options are Odd, Even, and None (default is Odd.)  
Stop Bits: Options are 1 and 2 bits (default is 1 bit.)  
Flow Control: Options are Software Flow Control (Xon/Xoff), Hardware Flow Control  
(CTS/RTS), and None (default is None.)  
18  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
4.5.4.A Serial Communication (continued)  
Transceiver: Can either be set to RS-232 or two-wire RS-485 (default is RS-485.)  
Modbus/TCP: A widely used protocol mainly in industrial automation applications with default  
TCP port number of 502 (see Local Port field). The options are Enable and Disable. If enabled,  
the Modbus/TCP is the only protocol driven by the iServer on its LAN port. If disabled, the  
TCP/IP is the only protocol driven by the iServer on its LAN port (default is disable).  
End Character: When the defined Hex character is received by the iServer on its serial  
port, the iServer will forward the buffered serial data to the Ethernet. The default value is  
00, which forces the iServer to forward the data to the Ethernet as it receives the data on  
its serial port (this means that the iServer requires NO “end character” to forward the data).  
Forward End Char: If enabled, the iServer will send the End Character out to the  
Ethernet as part of the data. If disabled, the iServer will not count the End Character as  
part of the data and will drop it (default is enabled.)  
Timeout: In RS232 connection, if the iServer does not receive any more serial data within  
the given time value, the iServer will forward the buffered serial data to the Ethernet. For  
example, if the Timeout is set to 200 ms, the iServer will send out the buffered serial data to  
the LAN, if it does not receive any more data on its serial port for a period of 200 ms.  
In RS485 connection, the Timeout value is used to switch between serial transmit and  
receive mode. Since the iServer supports 2-wire RS485, it needs to either transmit or  
receive serial data and the Timeout value determines the time interval for each. The  
range can be from 0 to 9999 ms (default is 500 ms).  
4.5.4.B Terminal Server  
TCP/UDP: The iServer supports TCP and UDP protocol (default is TCP). If UDP is  
selected, it can be configured either for Broadcast UDP or Directed UDP. In case of  
Broadcast UDP, the iServer will transmit the serial data to every node on the network.  
This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to 255.255.255.255.  
The Broadcast UDP is a practical solution when one device needs to communicate with  
multiple PC’s or devices over the network (one-to-many connection). In the case of  
directed UDP, the iServer will transmit the serial data to a specific node on the network  
(one-to-one connection). This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to  
the IP address of that specific node.  
Server Type: In most cases the iServer will be acting as a Slave device. Slave option is  
chosen when a network host needs to connect to the serial port of the iServer (default is Slave)  
Number of Connections: The range is from 0 to 5. If 0 is selected, the Terminal Server  
feature is disabled. That means that no network connection can be made to the serial  
port of the iServer. If 1 is selected, only one network connection can be made to the  
iServer’s serial port. Any number more than 1 would allow the network hosts to monitor  
(read only) the traffic on the iServer’s serial port simultaneously, but only one network  
host would be allowed to read and write (default is 0).  
Local Port: This is the port or socket number for the iServer’s serial port. Any number  
between 500 and 9999 can be defined with the exceptions of 1000 and 2002 which are  
already used by the iServer for other purposes.  
If the “Number of Connections” is set to 0, the iServer’s “Local Port” will be 1000,  
regardless of the displayed value inside the “Local Port” box. Once the “Number  
of Connections” is changed to a non-zero number (1 - 5) the “Local Port” value will  
be what is inside the box, this value by default indicates 2000 and is changable.

4.5.4.B Terminal Server (continued)  
Connection Control: Some serial devices accept connections or disconnect  
connections based on certain signal conditions. For example, a serial device may accept  
a connection only if the incoming DTR signal (connected to device’s DSR or DCD) is  
high or low. In this case, when the iServer receives the TCP connection, before it  
forwards it to its serial port, it must raise its DTR (DTR+) or to lower its DTR (DTR-). The  
iServer is capable of doing this with any of the hardware or modem control signals (DTR,  
DSR, DCD, RTS, and CTS).  
"Reconnect" is one of the options in the Connection Control menu. This option  
can be used in the Serial Tunneling described in Section 4.11. If the connection  
in Serial Tunneling is broken due to network problems, power failure, etc., the  
Reconnect option will try to get the connection back on line every whatever the  
"Connection Timeout" is set to. For Example, if the Connection Timeout is set to  
1000 x10 ms or 10 seconds, then every 10 seconds the iServer attempts to  
reconnect and reestablish the serial tunnel to the other network node.  
Device No.: Refer to Section 4.5.1  
4.5.4C Remote Access: This option needs to be enabled when Serial Tunneling is  
configured. The Serial Tunneling is explained in detail in Section 4.11.  
Changes made in the iServer’s Configuration page can be saved permanently  
by pressing the Save button. Pressing the Reset button will set all the fields  
back to their default values.

Host Name: Refer to Section 3.4, DNS.  
MAC Address: This is also called Hardware address or Ethernet address, which is  
assigned to the iServer at production. The MAC (Media Access Control) address is the  
iServer’s unique hardware number and is not changeable.  
IP Address: The IP (Internet Protocol) address is a 32-bit number that identifies each  
sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Ethernet or the  
Internet. The iServer’s default IP address is 192.168.1.200. The iServer’s IP address  
should be changed to fit user’s networking environment. Consult with your IT department  
for obtaining an IP address.  
The DHCP will be enabled in the

Gateway Address: A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another  
network. A gateway is often associated with a router, which knows where to direct a  
given packet of data that arrives at the gateway. If the iServer is sending packets to  
another network node that is not on the same network on which the iServer is connected,  
a gateway address needs to be given to the iServer. The gateway address should be the  
IP address of the router connected to the same LAN to which the iServer is connected.  
The iServer’s default gateway address is 0.0.0.0. Consult with your IT department for  
obtaining a gateway address.

4.6 Setting a New IP Address over the Network  
The iServer is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of  
255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that  
is in the same range as the iServer’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the iServer  
using a crossover network cable between your PC and the iServer.  
With this completed, you can go to the DOS-Prompt and ping 192.168.1.200. If you  
receive responses back (similiar to Figure 4.1), you can go to the Web browser and type  
in http://192.168.1.200 and it will take you to the Device Type page and then to the Home  
Page.  
Select Access Control button, you’ll be asked for the password. First default Login  
password is "12345678" and the Admin password is "00000000", then you should be on  
the administrator setup page were you can simply type in the desired Static IP address,  
and click Save.

4.7 Terminal Server Function  
It is used to provide dedicated connectivity between computers and serial devices  
through the iServer over the Ethernet, without dedicated wiring. The typical Internet  
protocol consists of a request and a replay to that request. In this situation the server is  
the Host that generates the request and receives the replay from the device, that gets  
forwarded to the appropriate party on the network. But there are specific applications  
where a message is generated by the device, and the server is simply passing the data  
to the appropriate party on the network, in this situation the server acts as Slave.  
Examples are the Attendance Time Clocks, Bar Code Readers, remote Displays or  
Electronic signboards, etc.  
For the iServer to pass the data back and forth between its Serial and Ethernet  
interfaces, the Terminal Server option needs to be configured as follows (Figure 4.13):  
1. Set the Server Type to Slave  
2. Set the Number of Connections to 0.  
3. Set the Local Port or Socket number to any number from 599 - 65535, except  
numbers 1000 and 2002.  
4. Press the Save button to store the new settings.  
From your application software on the host machine, you can now point to the IP address  
of the iServer and the assigned port number to establish a TCP connection to your serial  
device connected to the serial port of the iServer.

4.9 Telnet Setup  
Telnet stands for Telecommunications Network, is a protocol that provides a way for users (or  
clients) to connect to computers (or servers) on a network, whether in the next building or  
across the other side of the world.  
You can open a Telnet session using other terminal emulation programs like Tera Term Pro  
(downloadable from the internet), which is a free software for MS-Windows. It supports  
VT100 emulation, Telnet connection and serial port connection.  
Once the Telnet mechanism is decided we can open a session by simply typing the IP  
address of the iServer, and setting the Port on 2002 for logging into the iServer Configuration  
page or 2000 for accessing the serial device connected to the iServer’s serial port.

4.10 HTTPGET Program  
You can setup and read the information from the iServer by using the HTTPGET  
program. The following program can be used to read data from the embedded server  
firmware by using TCP port 1000. The command string sends to this TCP port, then it  
reads back the response from the same port. Whatever you write to the port goes to the  
serial port unmodified. Any response from the serial port can be read back from the  
same socket.  
The Httpget.exe file is used to setup and read information from the iServer. This file will  
be automatically installed when you run any iServer related software available on our  
website and CD.  
Example to use the "Httpget" program:  
1. Create a directory C:\iServer\Httpget.  
2. Copy httpget.exe and readme_features.doc files to this directory.  
3. Make sure that you are in this directory and then enter the following test program:  
C:\iServer\Httpget\httpget –r –S "*01X01\r" 192.168.1.200:1000  
where:  
"-r –S" are switches before the command string  
"01" is device address (in hex format) for RS485 communication interface (skip for  
RS232)  
"X01" read measurement data value (iLD protocol)  
"\r" calls out a CR  
"192.168.1.200" is an IP address  
"1000" is a local port number  
Respond:  
01X01074.3  
where:  
"01X01" is Echo command  
"074.3" is a display reading of the 4-digit device  
In the example above the 4-digit iLD Big Display controller has been connected  
to the serial communication port of iServer.

4.11 ARP Protocol  
ARP is the Internet layer protocol responsible for determining the MAC (hardware)  
address that corresponds to a particular IP address. The ARP command allows the user  
to view the current contents of the ARP cache of the local computer (residing on the  
same network) or remote computer (residing on the different network) through a router.  
Microsoft includes the ARP.EXE utility for viewing and modifying the ARP cache with its  
Windows products. The following ARP commands can be used to view cache entries:  
arp –a © Use this command to view all ARP cache entries.  
arp –a plus IP address © Use this command to view ARP cache entries associated  
with one particular interface on a network with multiple adapters.  
arp –g © Same as arp –a.  
arp –N © Use this command to display ARP entries for specific network interface.  
arp – s plus IP address plus Physical address © Use this command to manually add  
a permanent static entry to the ARP cache.  
arp –d © Use this command to manually delete a static entry.  
Ping the destination computer using IP address first before using the arp -a  
command.  
The following window shows examples of arp commands and responses.  
Your computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.118

4.12 Remote Access (Tunneling)  
To "tunnel", in this context, is to transmit data between two points through a private  
conduit on a shared or public network. The network could be an Ethernet LAN, a WAN,  
or the Internet. The iServer allows for a connection between a serial device and a PC, or  
between two serial devices, using an existing network rather than dedicated wiring.  
Today, there are number of serial devices like sensors, gauges, PLCs, card readers,  
security alarms, barcode scanners, data loggers, video cameras, ATM machines, time &  
attendance terminals, medical lab equipments, electronic signboards, and many others  
that are directly connected to PCs via their serial ports. These devices can be attached  
to shared Ethernet networks (TCP/IP protocol) and get accessed, controlled, and  
managed remotely using the iServer products. Any two iServer’s can talk to each other  
over the Ethernet LAN, WAN, and Internet using TCP/IP protocol. Therefore, the  
connected serial devices to iServer’s can also communicate with each other back and  
forth over these networks. This characteristic is called Tunneling and it’s illustrated  
below.  
Figure 4.19 PC-to-Device Communication  
Figure 4.20 Device-to-Device Communication  
In order to use this Tunneling feature, some settings are required within the local and  
remote iServer’s.

4.12.1 Remote iServer  
It’s recommended to configure the Remote iServer and have it up and running before the  
Local iServer is configured.  
1. A static IP address must be assigned to the Remote iServer. This means that the DHCP  
must remain disabled. Refer to the DHCP section of the user’s manual for details.  
2. Use a browser to access the Remote iServer’s WEB page. Simply type the iServer’s  
IP address at the browser’s URL location (i.e. 192.168.1.50) followed by an Enter key.  
You should then see the iServer’s main WEB page.  
3. Click on the Update button.  
4. Click on Configuration, you will be prompted with a Password (default is 12345678).  
5. On the Configuration page, under Serial Communication section, make sure the  
parameters such as Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, Flow Control, etc. match  
with your attached serial device.  
6. Make sure to set the End Character (Hex) to 0D and the Timeout to 500.  
7. Under Terminal Server section, set Number of Connections to 1 or higher.  
8. Click on Save button for the changes to take place.  
Make sure that the serial cable and communication settings between the iServer and the  
serial device are valid.

4.12.2 Local iServer  
1. An IP address should be assigned to the iServer dynamically or statically (recommended).  
2. Use a browser to access the Local iServer’s WEB page. Simply type the iServer’s IP  
address at the browser’s URL location (i.e. 192.168.1.49) followed by an Enter key.  
You should then see the iServer’s main WEB page.  
3. Click on the Update button.  
4. Click on Configuration, you will be prompted with a Password (default is 12345678).  
5. On the Configuration page, under Serial Communication section, make sure the  
parameters such as Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, Flow Control, etc. match  
with your attached serial device and its application software.  
6. Make sure to set the End Character (Hex) to 0D and the Timeout to 500.  
7. Under Terminal Server section, set Number of Connections to 0.  
8. Under Remote Access section, set the Remote Access to enable, Enter the Remote  
IP address (would be the IP address of the remote iServer, 192.168.1.50), and use the  
default Remote Port number 2000.  
9. Set Connection Control to Reconnect and set the Connection Timeout to a desired value.  
The Reconnect option is used in Serial Tunneling and it applies only to the Local  
iServer. If the tunneling connection between the two iServers goes down due to  
network problems, power failure, etc., the Reconnect option will enable the Local  
iServer to reconnect with the Remote iServer based on the specified time interval in  
the Connection Timeout. For example, based on a timeout of 1000 x 10 ms (10  
seconds), the Local iServer will continually attempt to reconnect and re-establish the  
tunnel with the Remote iServer every 10 seconds.  
10. Click on Save button for the changes to take place.  
11. Initialize the serial device application software to establish the connection.

4.13 Mail Notifier Software  
The Mail Notifier Software can be used only with NEWPORT Electronics instruments.  
For complete information of how to use the Mail Notifier software, click on the Help menu  
of the main window.  
The Mail Notifier software generates email notifications for alarm conditions. Users can  
be notified automatically of alarm conditions monitored via internet connections  
throughout the world. By use of the email forwarding of alarm conditions, alarm  
conditions can be monitored on a network isolated from the internet and forwarded to  
connections on the Internet.  
The Mail Notifier utility operates under Windows 98, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP in conjunction  
with existing email that supports the MAPI messaging interface. If MS Outlook has been  
loaded, the MAPI support should be available.  
4.13.1 Installation  
The Mail Notifier must be loaded on a computer running Microsoft Windows (versions  
specified earlier) using an email program that provides MAPI access. Network access  
must be available between this computer and the iServer. Network access must also be  
available from this computer to the appropriate email server and from the email server to  
the recipient’s email server.

4.13.2 Program Options Setup and Configuration  
Complete program setup requires:  
Entering a recipient for the email  
Specifying connection details to MAPI services.  
Defining alarms for devices, and selecting how and when the email will be active.  
Figure 4.24 iServer Mail Notifier Profile Setup  
The “Send To” tab contains a field to specify an email address to which alarm  
notifications will be sent (i.e. the recipient). Only one entry is permitted, in the address  
field. Additional addresses can be placed into “More Addresses” list.  
Email Connection (MAPI Access)  
The following instructions work with some versions of Microsoft Outlook. Note though  
that some email systems may prevent the use of Mail Notifier due to security constraints.  
The simplest way to obtain a connection the the Email services is as follows:  
1. Configure the Mail Notifier to connect to the email by displaying a Login Box. This  
option is found by selecting View, Options from the Mail Notifier's menubar. Select  
the "Email Setup" tab, mark the checkbox for "Use Login Box"  
2. After Mail Notifier is configured to use the login box, the Mail Notifier can be started  
without user intervention if your MS Outlook program is running beforehand.  
Otherwise, the Mail Notifier will display a Login Box that should display the  
necessary User Profile.

APPENDIX A  
GLOSSARY  
User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions:  
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol  
address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local  
network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long.  
In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits  
long. (The physical machine address is also known as a Media Access Control or  
MAC address.) A table, usually called the ARP cache, is used to maintain a correlation  
between each MAC address and its corresponding IP address. ARP provides the  
protocol rules for making this correlation and providing address conversion in both  
directions.  
Ethernet is a network protocol defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard. Ethernet-based  
networks use MAC Address rather then IP Address to exchange data between  
computers. By using ARP and adding TCP/IP support, Ethernet devices may be  
connected as part of the Internet. An Ethernet LAN typically uses coaxial cable or special  
grades of twisted pair wires. The most commonly installed Ethernet systems are called  
10BASE-T and provide transmission speeds up to 10 Mbps. Devices are connected to  
the cable and compete for access using a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision  
Detection (CSMA/CD) protocol.  
IP (Internet Protocol) is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer  
to another on the Internet.  
IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender  
or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet.  
IP Netmask is a 32-bit pattern of bits used to determine which part of the IP address is  
the network portion and which part is the host portion.  
MAC (Media Access Control) Address is your computer's unique hardware number.  
When you're connected to the Internet from your computer, a correspondence table  
relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN.  
Ping is a utility that tests the network connectivity. It is used to determine if the host is  
capable of exchanging information with another host.  
Port number/Socket number is a way to identify a specific process to which an Internet  
or other network message is to be forwarded when it arrives at a server. It is a  
predefined address that serves as a route from the application to the Transport layer or  
from the Transport layer to the application of the TCP/IP system.  
Sockets are a method for communication between a client program and a server  
program in a network and defined as "the endpoint in a connection." Information  
transferred across the Internet primarily occurs between sockets.  
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the basic communication  
language or protocol of the Internet. When you are set up with direct access to the  
Internet, your computer is provided with a copy of the TCP/IP program just as every  
other computer that you may send messages to or get information from also has a copy  
of TCP/IP. TCP/IP often is used as a general term to indicate generic access to the  
Internet.

Appendix B  
IP Address  
An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes:  
• A network ID number identifying a network.  
• A host ID number identifying a computer on the network.  
All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C  
Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID. They can support  
a large number of hosts, approximately 2 = 16,777,216 computers per network.  
The IP addresses range in binary from 00000001.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx  
to 01111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx  
The IP addresses range in decimal from 1.x.x.x to 127.x.x.x  
Class A network ID’s support a very large number of hosts.  
Class B addresses have 16-bits of network ID and 16-bits of host ID. They can  
support approximately 216 = 65,536 computers per network.  
The IP addresses range in binary from 10000000 00000000.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx  
to 10111111 11111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx  
The IP addresses range in decimal from 128.0.x.x to 191.255.xxx.xxx  
Class B network ID’s support a medium number of hosts.  
Class C addresses have 24-bits of network ID and 8-bits of host ID. They can support  
approximately 28 = 256 computers per network.  
The IP addresses range in binary from 11000000.00000000.00000000.xxxxxxxx  
to 11011111.11111111.11111111.xxxxxxxx  
The IP addresses range in decimal from 192.0.0.xxx to 223.255.255.xxx  
Class C network ID’s support a small number of hosts.  
The rest of the addresses are divided into two classes, D and E.  
Class D networks are not assigned to the host. They are used for multicasting.  
The address range from 224.x.x.x to 239.x.x.x  
Class E networks are experimental or reserved addresses.  
The address range from 240.x.x.x to 247.x.x.x

Appendix C  
IP Netmask  
IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine  
network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is  
a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using  
them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet mask for address  
Classes A, B, and C. Each bit that is set to "1" in the subnet mask corresponds to the bit  
in the IP address that is to be used as the network ID. Each bit that is set to "0" in the  
subnet mask corresponds to a bit in the IP address that is to be used as the host ID.

If your network requires more network ID’s, you can extend the default subnet mask to  
include additional bits from the host ID. This allows for additional network ID’s within the  
network. The table below shows some examples of subnet masks and bits moved from  
the hosts ID to create a new subnet.
