1.2 Description  
The iServer is an Ethernet Server designed to connect devices with serial interfaces  
to the Ethernet network using the TCP/IP protocol. It contains Ethernet and RS232  
or RS485 interfaces.  
The standard features include:  
Use standard Web Browser, TCP connection, HTTPget DOS program or Telnet  
Simulation, for network connectivity.  
Install via RS232/RS485 serial port connection.  
Transfer data from RS232/RS485 serial interface to TCP/IP using built-in socket  
server.  
Use a standard home page for OEM applications.  
The following example illustrates how you can hookup the devices with serial  
interface on the network using the iServer:

2.3 Serial Communication Interfaces (For Models with -C4EIT)  
The iSeries controller/monitor with Embedded Ethernet Server option supports only  
RS485/422 interfaces to slave instruments with RS485 interfaces (ex: i833-C24).  
This allows the use of one TCP/IP address assigned to the master unit (-C4EIT) to  
communicate with multiple slave units (-C24). See Figure 2.3.  
-C4EIT master unit acts as hub (Web Server), but it cannot initiate an outside  
connection with RS485. The serial portion of this option is used to slave multiple  
RS485 units together using the one IP address of that master unit (-C4EIT).  
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.

2.3.1 Wiring Master/Slave Units via 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.

Value of the termination resistor is not critical and depends on the cable  
impedance.

2.4 Network Communication Interfaces  
2.4.1 10BASE-T RJ-45 Pinout  
The 10BASE-T Ethernet network 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.

2.4.2 Connecting iServer to PC/Hub/Switch/Router  
The iServer’s Ethernet interface can automatically detect the Rx and Tx lines on a  
twisted pair Ethernet cable (MDI/MDIX Auto Cross). Therefore, to connect an iServer to a  
PC/Hub/Switch/Router, either a straight-through or a cross-over cable can be used.  
On certain devices (like iServer), it is possible for the hardware to automatically  
correct errors in cable selection, making the distinction between a “straight-  
through” cable and a “cross-over” cable unimportant. This capability is known as  
“Auto MDI/MDIX”.  
You may need to power recycle for auto detect to take place.

PART 3  
NETWORK CONFIGURATION  
3.1 Network Protocols  
The iServer can be connected to an Ethernet network using standard IP protocols  
including TCP, UDP, SNMP, SMTP, ARP, HTTP (WEB server), DHCP, DNS, Telnet,  
and Modbus TCP/IP.  
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 thru Figure 3.3.

3.3 DHCP  
DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, enables computers and devices to  
extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server).  
If DHCP is enabled on your iServer, as soon as the iServer is connected to the  
network, there is an exchange of information between the iServer and the DHCP  
server. 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.  
The iServer is shipped with DHCP disabled (factory default).  
If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP function must be disabled.  
The DHCP can be enabled by accessing the iServer’s web server and selecting  
Network option (refer to Section 4.5.2).  
1. It is very important to communicate with the network administrator in  
order to understand DHCP and its existing configurations on the host  
server, before enabling 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 Windows servers where DHCP and DNS are separate functions it’s  
very important to configure DHCP server to communicate with DNS in  
order for the iServer’s Host Name to correctly respond. If you cannot  
access the iServer using its Host Name, please contact your network  
administrator to make sure DHCP and DNS servers are linked together.  
3.4 DNS  
DNS, Domain Name System enables computers and devices to be recognized over  
a network based on a specific name instead of IP addresses.  
For example, instead of having to use http://192.168.1.200 (IP address), you would  
use only http://eit0a0b 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 "eit" followed by the last four digits of the  
MAC address of that particular iServer.  
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 itself and the  
serial device connected to the iServer’s serial port. All network devices like  
computers that use TCP/IP protocol to communicate with each other should have a  
unique 32-bit address called IP address.  
The IP address 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 different host IDs.  
For more details about the IP address see Appendix B.

3.6 TCP Port (Socket) Number  
All TCP connections are defined by an IP address and a port number. A port number  
is an internal address that provides a TCP/IP interface between an application  
software on a computer and a device on the network.  
There are three default TCP port (socket) numbers assigned to the iServer:  
1. Port 1000: Once a TCP connection is made to the iServer using port 1000, the  
iServer will forward the connection to the serial device and it will take the  
response from the serial device and send it out to the network.  
2. Port 2000: Once a TCP connection is made to the iServer using port 2000 (or  
any port number that is configured on the iServer), the iServer will forward the  
connection to the serial device and it will take the response from the serial  
device and send it out to the network.  
3. Port 2002: This port is the iServer’s network console port for reading or  
changing the iServer’s settings. This can be done using a Telnet application.  
Example: C:\>Telnet 192.168.1.200 2002

PART 4  
OPERATIONS  
This iServer can be configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and  
network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser like Chrome, Internet Explorer,  
or Firefox to access its Web server. It can also be configured using a TCP connection to  
port 2002 using a command line interface. The iConnect Configuration Software can also  
be used to find and configure the iServer over the Ethernet.  
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

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 192.168.1.200 is already in use on your network, connect the iServer directly to  
your computer using a CAT5 Ethernet cable (either straight or cross-over cable will  
be detected by the iServer) and proceed as described above.  
To verify a good connection to the iServer, from a DOS prompt on your computer  
type “ping 192.168.1.200” and press Enter. You should get a reply as shown in  
Figure 4.1.

4.5.2 Network  
This page provides configurations for the Ethernet interface and TCP/IP parameters.  
Fields are described below.  
Figure 4.5 iServer NETWORK Page  
DHCP – If the box is checked the iServer will dynamically request an IP address, a  
subnet mask, a gateway address, and a DNS address from the DHCP server. By  
default the DHCP option is disabled.  
For more information about DHCP, see Section 3.3.  
MAC Address – This Indicates the hardware address of the iServer and it’s non-  
configurable.  
For more information about MAC Address, see Section 3.2.  
IP Address – This indicates the IP address of the iServer. The iServer’s default IP  
address is 192.168.1.200. When DHCP is enabled this field will be dimmed.  
Consult with your IT department for obtaining an IP address.

4.5.2 Network (continued)  
Subnet Mask – A 32-bit number that is used to determine which part of the IP  
address is the network portion and which part is the host portion. When DHCP is  
enabled this field will be dimmed. The iServer’s default Subnet Mask is  
255.255.255.0. Consult with your IT department for obtaining a subnet mask.  
Gateway Address – This points to the router that forwards traffic to a destination  
address outside of the subnet on which the iServer resides. This is the IP address of  
the router which functions as a gateway. When DHCP is enabled this field will be  
dimmed. The iServer’s default Gateway address is 0.0.0.0. Consult with your IT  
department for obtaining a gateway address.  
DNS Address – In order to use the iServer’s DNS feature, the DNS server on your  
network must be configured. That allows the iServer to use a host’s domain name to  
access the Ethernet node. The iServer plays the role of a DNS client, in the sense  
that the iServer will actively query the DNS server for the IP address associated with  
a particular domain name. When DHCP is enabled this field will be dimmed. The  
iServer’s default DNS address is 0.0.0.0. Consult with your IT department for  
obtaining a gateway address.  
Host Name – If the DHCP is enabled the iServer will send this name to the DHCP  
server. This name is used so the iServer can be accessed based on a specific name  
instead of an IP address. For example, instead of using http://192.168.1.200 (IP  
address), you would use http://eit0a0b or any name up to eleven alphanumeric  
characters. The default Host Name for an iServer is "eit" followed by the last four  
digits of the MAC address of that particular iServer.  
On Windows servers where the DHCP and DNS are separate functions it’s  
very important to configure the DHCP server to communicate with the DNS in  
order for the iServer’s Host Name to correctly respond. If you cannot access  
the iServer using its Host Name, please contact your network administrator to  
make sure the DHCP and DNS servers are linked together.  
Protocol – It’s the network protocol the iServer communicates with the Ethernet  
Network. Options are TCP, UDP, and ModbusTCP. The default is TCP.  
Web Server Port – The default port is 80. This is the primary port number for the  
HTTP protocol used for communication between internet browsers and web  
sites/web servers. Web servers open this port then listen for incoming connections  
from web browsers. Similarly, when a web browser is given an IP address (like the  
iServer’s IP address), it assumes that the iServer’s web server is listening for  
connections on port 80.  
If this port is changed to anything but 80 then on the browser the new port number  
must be indicated with a colon (:) after the IP address. For example, if the Web  
Server Port is changed to 500, you will then need to type http://192.168.1.200:500  
on the browser to access the iServer’s web server.  
One of the applications where the Web Server Port number may need to  
change is when users want to access the iServer’s web server from outside  
the local area network (i.e. Internet). By setting up “Port Forwarding” inside a  
router that is the gateway to that local area network this task can be  
accomplished. “Port Forwarding” technique uses the Web Server Port  
number to forward the Internet connection to the iServer on the LAN.

4.5.3 Serial (RS485 Serial Port)  
These pages provide configurations for the iServer’s serial port as well as different  
techniques for bridging data between serial and Ethernet ports (see Figures 4.6  
through 4.10). Fields are described below.  
The RS485 Service Port Tab as shown in Figure 4.6 will appear only for  
option C4EIT.  
For the iSeries EIT option the following parameters: 9600,O,7,1,none are  
fixed and the device must be set to these parameters.  
For EIT option there will be no tab.  
4.5.3.1 RS485 Serial Port  
Figure 4.6 iServer SERIAL Page – RS485 Serial Port  
Baud Rate – This indicates the speed of the iServer’s serial port. Options are 300,  
600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, and 460800  
bits/s. The default is 9600 bits/s.  
iSeries device maximum Baud Rate is 19.2 kb/s  
Data Bits – This indicates the number of bits in a transmitted serial packet. Options  
are 7 and 8. The default is 7.  
Parity – This checks the serial packet for the parity bit. Options are Even, Odd, and  
None. The default is Odd.  
Stop Bit – This indicates the end of transmission. Options are 1 and 2. The default is 1.  
Flow Control – This handles the data flow between the iServer and the attached serial  
device to ensure it’s processed efficiently. Too much data arriving before the device  
can handle it causes lost data. Options are Software also called Xon/Xoff (using Tx  
and Rx pins), and None. The default is None.

web page.  
Figure 4.7 iServer SERIAL Page – Network to Serial  
Local Port – This is the port number assigned to the iServer’s serial port for the  
purpose of TCP, UDP, or ModbusTCP connection. Any number between 500 and  
9999 can be used with the exceptions of 1000 and 2002 which are reserved by the  
iServer for other purposes (port 1000 is described in the previous section and port  
2002 is the iServer’s Telnet console port). The default is 2000.  
Port number 502 is the default port number for Modbus/TCP protocol.  
If Modbus/TCP is enabled in the iServer, set port 502 as the iServer’s Local  
Port .  
Disconnect after Data Sent – If checked, the iServer receives a command, sends it  
to the serial port and waits for a reply. If a reply is recieved it will close the  
connection.

4.5.3.3 Packing Techniques  
Figure 4.8 iServer SERIAL Page – Packing Techniques  
End Character – When this hexadecimal 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 D, which means the iServer requires no End Character to  
forward the data to the network.  
Forward End Character – If this option is checked, the iServer will send the End  
Character out to the Ethernet as part of the data.  
If unchecked, the iServer will not count the End Character as part of the data and will  
drop it. The default is unchecked.  
Buffering Time – This forces the iServer to buffer the received serial data for the  
given time value. This option defines the time interval during which the iServer stores  
the serial data in its buffer before sending it out to the network.  
Depending on users’ applications, this time must be at least larger than one  
character interval within the specified baud rate.  
For example, assume that the serial port is set to 1200 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit,  
and no parity.  
In this case, the total number of bits needed to send a character is 10 bits and the  
time required to transfer one character is:  
(10 (bits) / 1200 (bits/sec) ) * 1000 (msec/sec) = 8.3 msec.  
Therefore, the Buffering Time must be larger than 8.3 msec.  
If the interval is set to be too long (counting the baud rate in the equation) and  
therefore the iServer’s buffer approaches to get full, the iServer will override the  
specified time and will push the data out to the network before the buffer is full.  
The default is 500 milliseconds.

4.5.3.3 Packing Techniques (continued)  
Packet Length – If the received data length (in bytes) matches the entered value,  
the data will be sent out to the network.  
The data length of up to 1024 bytes can be entered.  
Enter 0 if you don’t need to limit the length. The default is 0.  
Inactivity Timeout – This option impacts Network-to-Serial and Serial-to-Network  
connections.  
The iServer will drop the TCP connection if there is no activity before the defined  
time expires. If 0 is selected there won’t be any timeout. The default is 0 seconds.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
4.5.3.4 Multi-host Connection (Continued)  
Connection Type – The options are Disable, Simultaneous, and Sequential. The  
iServer can send the received serial data to multiple network hosts Simultaneously  
or Sequentially.  
In Simultaneous mode, the received serial data will be transmitted to all the network  
nodes that are indicated in the host table (using TCP or UDP protocol depending on  
which protocol is selected under the NETWORK page).  
In Sequential mode, the iServer scrolls through the IP addresses in the host table  
until it connects to one. After a successful connection, the iServer stops trying to  
connect to any others. If this connection fails, the iServer continues to scroll through  
the table until the next successful connection takes place.  
Each entry in the host table should contain an IP address and a port number. The  
default is Disable.  
Retry Counter – This indicates the number of tries to connect to the host address.  
The default is 2.  
Retry Timeout – This indicates the amount of time (msec) between each try. The  
default is 200 msec.

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.  
SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is an Internet standard for electronic mail (email) transfer  
across the Internet. SMTP clients usually use SMTP to send email messages by specifying  
the SMTP server. The email server uses SMTP to both send and receive email messages.  
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol is a network monitoring protocol to monitor  
devices connected to an Ethernet Network.  
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.  
Terminating Resistor is a resistor placed at the extreme end or ends of the RS485 serial  
cable (across the -Tx/Rx and +Tx/Rx). On one end where the iServer is connected a 120-ohm  
terminating resistor is built in internally therefore there is no need for termination. However, on  
the end where the RS485 device is connected, if the device does not have an internal  
terminating resistor you should connect a 120-ohm resistor across the -Tx/Rx and +Tx/Rx  
wires (see Wiring RS485 Interface Section). Lack of termination can cause data corruption  
due to electrical noise sensitivity. The value of the terminating resistor is ideally the same  
value as the characteristic impedance of the cable (typically, 120 ohms for twisted pairs).

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.

Appendix F  
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 sends this string to TCP port  
1000 and 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  
is available on our website.  
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:  
4. For help, execute HTTPget.exe  
C:\iServer\httpget>httpget –r –S "*01X01\r" 192.168.1.200:1000

ARP Program  
ARP is the Internet layer protocol responsible for matching or obtaining 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  
The destination computer  
has an IP address of  
192.168.1.96

Telnet Setup  
Telnet stands for Telecommunications Network, it 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.

Appendix I  
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 in Figures I.1 and I.2.

Appendix I  
Remote Access (Tunneling) (continued)  
Figure I-2 Device-to-Device Communication  
In order to use this Tunneling feature, some settings are required within the local and  
remote iServer’s.  
I-1 Remote iSeries -EIT/-C4EIT  
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 OK button after entering the LOGIN password.  
4. On the SERIAL page, under Serial Port section (see Figure 4.6 or 4.7) make  
sure the parameters: Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, and Flow  
Control match the serial communication settings of your attached serial device.  
5. Under Packing Techniques section (see Figure 4.8) make sure to set the End  
Character (Hex) to 00 and the Buffering Time is set to 0.  
6. If Data is too fast, try setting the iSeries-EIT in continuous mode to 0-500 ms, so  
that the local connection has time to respond.  
6. 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.

Appendix I  
Remote Access (Tunneling) (continued)  
I-2 Local iSeries -EIT/-C4EIT  
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 OK button after entering the LOGIN password.  
4. Click on NETWORK page, you will be prompted with a Password (default is  
00000000).  
5. On the SERIAL page, under Serial Port section (see Figure 4.6 or 4.7), make  
sure the parameters: Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits, and Flow  
Control match with your attached serial device and its application software.  
6. Under Packing Techniques section (see Figure 4.8), make sure to set the End  
Character (Hex) to 00 and the Buffering Time to 0.  
7. Under Multi-host section (see Figure I-3), set the Connection Type to  
Simultaneous/ Sequential, 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.  
Set Retry Counter to anything more than 0 and set the Retry Timeout to a  
desired value.  
If the tunneling connection between the two iServers goes down due to network  
problems, power failure, etc., the Sequential connection type option will enable the  
Local iServer to reconnect with the Remote iServer based on the specified time  
interval in the Retry Timeout.  
For example, based on a timeout of 10000 (10 seconds), the Local iServer will  
continually attempt to reconnect and reestablish the tunnel with the Remote iServer  
every 10 seconds.  
9. Click on Save button for the changes to take place.  
When setting the iSeries -EIT/-C4EIT as a Remote iServer, reboot the unit  
for the settings to take place.  
When setting the iSeries -EIT/-C4EIT as a Local iServer, only the  
iSeries -C4EIT has RS485 serial connection.  
10. Initialize the serial device application software to establish the connection.

I-3 Tunneling Troubleshooting  
Using the original serial cable, please confirm valid communication between the  
serial device and its application software on the PC with no iServers in between  
(direct serial connection). Otherwise, reset the power, first on the remote iServer  
and then on the local iServer and recheck for Connection type drop down menu as  
simultaneous.  
A quick way to check the LAN and serial tunneling connection is to separately  
access each iServer WEB page via the Ethernet. If successful, this should prove a  
valid LAN connection.  
For serial tunneling, open a HyperTerminal session on the PC pointing to the same  
COM port to which the Local iServer is connected and type/send some characters.  
This should cause the Rx Receive LED on the Local iServer to blink as it receives  
the data from the serial port and onto the LAN. Accordingly, the Tx Transmit LED  
on the Remote iServer should blink as it transmits the data from the LAN into the  
serial device. If no LEDs blink, then that could possibly point to the iServer  
connection in trouble - particularly, the serial cabling and/or the serial settings (Baud  
rate, stop bit, parity, etc.) throughout the communication path between the PC, the  
iServer, and the serial device.

iPORT  
J-1 iPORT, COMꢀPort Redirector  
To obtain the iPORT software (iPORT.exe file) please use the phone number, as  
listed on the cover of this manual, to contact the Sales Department nearest you.  
To install the iPORT application, simply double-click on the iPORT.exe file and follow  
the installation steps. The iPORT is compatible with Windows NT, 2000, XP and  
Windows 7 (32 or 64-bit) operating systems.  
J-2 iPORT Overview  
The iPORT is a COM port redirecting software. Its function is to redirect connections  
that are destined for a local serial (COM) port on a PC, to an iServer network-  
enabling device on the LAN.  
In a direct serial connection, application software can communicate directly over an  
RS232 or RS485 with a serial device (Figure J-1).

Software  
Serial Cable (RS232)  
Figure J-1 Direct Serial Connection  
By installing iPORT software on the same PC, the iPORT will redirect the serial  
connection from the COM port to the network port on that PC. The connection can  
simply reach the serial device through an iServer sitting anywhere on an Ethernet  
network (Figure J-2).

Appendix J  
iPORT (continued)  
J-2 iPORT Overview (continued)  
This connection redirection is totally transparent to the serial device and its  
application software. Once the connection is up from the PC to the serial device, the  
data is transmitted across the Ethernet network to the serial device and back from  
the serial device to the PC, all through the iServer and the iPORT.

J-3 iPORT Configurations  
After the iPORT is successfully installed on your windows machine, you will have an  
iPORT icon on your desktop and Control Panel window. By double-clicking on this  
icon, you can start the application and the iPORT main window will appear on your  
screen, see Figure J-3.  
Click on "COM Ports" button and you will see the window shown in Figure J-4. Select  
the appropriate COM port (this should be the same COM port that your application  
software uses). The selected COM port will then appear on the main iPORT window.  
By highlighting the selected COM port, you will be able to add the IP address and the  
port number to connect that COM port to the iServer on the network.  
Up to 255 COM ports can be selected and each can have a different IP configuration  
pointing to different iServers on the network. This enables users to simultaneously  
redirect different application software to connect to serial devices attached to  
networked iServers.

iServer IP Address – This is the IP address of the iServer that is connected to the  
serial device on one end and attached to the Ethernet LAN on the other end. The  
iServer’s default IP address is 192.168.1.200, which can be changed to fit your  
network IP address range (see Section 4).  
iServer Port Number – This is the port number for the iServer’s local serial port.  
The default value is 2000. If this port number is changed in the iServer’s  
Configuration page (see Section 4.5.4.1), the same number should be placed in the  
iPORT window.

J-3 iPORT Configurations (continued)  
Activate – If this box is checked, the selected COM port will be available for network  
connection. If it is unchecked, the selected COM port will be in sleep mode.  
Timeout – This is the amount of time (in milliseconds) in which the iPORT keeps the  
application software waiting before the device response is arrived. The default value  
is 5 seconds and it can be set between 0 to 10 seconds.  
Status – This window shows the connection status as the iPORT makes connection  
to the iServer or disconnects from the iServer. The connection status can be ideal,  
connecting, connected, or disconnected along with the IP address of the iServer  
shown in the Status window.  
Apply button To save the configuration for a selected COM port, click on the  
"Apply" button and reboot your PC for settings to take place in your Windows  
registry.  
Clear button – This button deletes the settings for a selected COM port.  
Cancel button – This button closes the iPORT window without saving the settings.  
In Figure J-3, if a COM port number is dimmed and cannot be selected, it means  
that the COM port is already used by another application or it could be a physical  
serial COM port on that PC.  
The serial communication settings (baud rate, data bit, stop bit and parity) of  
your application software must be identical to the serial communication  
settings of the iServer’s serial port and your serial device’s port connected to  
the iServer. You can use a Web browser to log
