Trigger Setup
A trigger event can occur when the unit receives two bytes of a specified sequence on the
serial port, or because of a specified combination of conditions on the configurable pins.
If the serial sequence is set to 00,00, the trigger is disabled. At the Serial Sequence prompt,
enter the ASCII Hex value. Example: A two byte sequence of 12 would be 0x31, 0x32.
If the configurable pins are all set to X (Don’t Care), then they are disabled. If both the serial
sequence and the configurable pins are disabled, the trigger is disabled.
Note: You can set the configurable pins to A = Active, I = Inactive, or X = Don’t Care. Active
can be set to Active Low or Active High. To change the configurable pins’ settings, you must
use DeviceInstaller or see Applications Note AMC-ANLAN012 on the CDROM for a web
browser method.
Each trigger is independent of the others. Each condition within an individual trigger must be
met before the unit will send the e-mail.
6.5 Expert Settings
Note: You can change these settings via Telnet or serial connections only, not on the Web-
Manager. Only an expert should change these parameters. You must definitely know the
consequences the changes might have.
TCP Keepalive time in seconds
This option allows you to change how many seconds the unit will wait during a silent
connection before attempting to see if the currently connected network device is still on the
network. If the unit then gets no response, it drops that connection.
ARP Cache timeout in seconds
Whenever the unit communicates with another device on the network, it adds an entry into its
ARP table. The ARP Cache timeout option allows you to define how many seconds (1-600)
the unit will wait before timing out this table.
High CPU Performance mode
This option applies to NetPort Iss01 and greater units only. It allows you to increase the
CPU performance and utilize the higher baud rates on the serial interface (i.e. 460Kbps and
920Kbps). Increasing CPU performance requires more power and lowers the unit’s operating
temperature. The standard CPU performance mode supports up to 230400 baud.
Note: If baud rates of 460Kbps or 920Kbps are set and the high performance mode disabled,
the operation of the serial channel would be out of the specified error tolerance thereby
leading to inconsistent speed settings on the two ends of the serial channel.
