3.3 Discovering Modbus Gateways
3.3.1 Auto Searching
Advantech Serial Device Server Configuration Utility will automatically search all the
EKI, ADAM and EDG series device servers on the network and show them on the
Serial Device Server List Area of the utility. The Utility provides an auto-searching
function to show your device(s) by simply executing the configuration utility program
from the Start Menu.
From here all devices on the same network domain will be searched and display on
the Serial Device Server List Area. You can click on the device name to show the fea-
tures of the specific device. Click on the "+" before the model name (e.g. EKI-1224),
and the utility will expand the tree structure to show the individual device name. Click
on the “-“ before the model name (e.g. EKI-1224), and the utility will collapse the tree
structure.
For example, EKI-1224 in this figure is shown “EKI-1224-A6A1D4” after expending
the tree structure.
Note When you configure the device for the first time, the default device name is
“MAC ID”. In this case, the device name “EKI-1224-A6A1D4” means the
device’s Mac ID is “00 D0 C9 A6 A1 D4”. You can change the device name
in System Tab of Device Property.
