DS72 Host Module ABOUT THIS OWNER’S MANUAL This document provides information required for installing and operating your Bay Tech equipment. It should allow the user to connect, power up, and access an applications menu where peripheral equipment can be controlled. We recommend reading this manual carefully, while placing special emphasis on correct cabling and configuration.
DS72 Host Module from a DB-25 connector to an RJ-45 connector is also available from Bay Tech, upon request (Bay Tech Part No. 25FRJ45PC-4). The 8-pin crossed modular cable is configured for these adapters. NOTE: Use rollover (RJ08X007) RJ-45 cables when using modular connectors to interface the DS-Series to another BayTech product with modular connectors, such as the RPC Remote Power Control Unit.
DS72 Host Module to the power source. Do not attempt to modify any portion or component of a DS72 module unless specifically directed by BayTech Technical Support. BayTech must perform any internal changes. CAUTION: High-voltage surges and spikes can damage this equipment. To protect from such power surges and spikes, this unit must have a good earth ground. A grounding screw connection is located near the power switch on the back of the unit.
DS72 Host Module 22. Select the ‘Gateway Address’ option and type the assigned Gateway address and press ‘Enter’. 23. Press ‘Enter’ until you are asked to ‘Accept Changes’. Type ‘Y’ to accept changes. 24. Press ‘Enter’ until you get the Network Access Menu, (Figure 1). 25. Select ‘Unit reset’ to update the external connections. Once the reset is completed (1 minute) connect the Baytech device to your network using an Ethernet cable.

DS72 Host Module Detailed Operation and Configuration Main Screen DS72 - Ethernet & RS232 Host module for DS SERIES chassis Once connected, you will see the menu screen as shown below. This shows the operation of the unit. Depending on which Network Host module you have, the below screens may vary. The screens below are show with the DS72 module. When prompted at the unit’s startup menu select “C” followed by a . This will take you to the Configuration menu. Module: 2 Attention Character: ; Device A ..
DS72 Host Module Configuration Menu The configuration menu allows the admin user to choose a module to access and edit its configuration. The following pages define each line of the configuration menu.

DS72 Host Module 1 For 1 2 For 1-1/2 3 For 2 Parity Parity is a simple form of error checking used in serial communication. For even and odd parity, the serial port will set the parity bit (the last bit after the data bits) to a value to ensure that the transmission has an even or odd number of logic high bits. For example, if the data was 011, then for even parity, the parity bit would be 0 to keep the number of logic high bits even.

DS72 Host Module IMPORTANT: Any changes do not take effect until they are saved by pressing until you leave the configuration menu. The Host Module responds: Accept changes ? (Y/N) : SNMP Trap Host (X) IP Address A SNMP Trap Host is a trap management station that receives and processes traps. Traps are system alerts that the Baytech device generates when certain events occur. By default, no trap manager is defined, and no traps are issued. Up to four SNMP Trap Hosts maybe assigned to receive traps.
DS72 Host Module SNMP is ENABLED. Enable? (Y/N): Network Port Configuration This allows access to the menu to change such options as the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, DHCP, and Telnet; all of which are necessary during initial startup. The Connection Inactivity Timeout allows you to enable/disable whether the firmware ends your session or “times out.” Disabling the Carriage Return Translation allows you to bypass all unnecessary carriage returns, and it will send you straight to the next “end of line.
DS72 Host Module NOTE: There should be no active connections while configuring the Host Module. The unit should be reset upon completion of configuration. Subnet Mask The Subnet Mask is a bit mask that identifies the network portion of the IP address, allowing the Host Module to determine whether to send a packet directly to the client or to a gateway. The Subnet Mask consists of four bytes, each byte ranging from 0 to 255.
DS72 Host Module Carriage Return Translation is.... Enabled Enable ? (Y/N), CR for no change) : Break Length Users may configure the Host Module for a break length of 1 - 1000 milliseconds. When a user, running a Telnet session with the Host and connected to a serial port on a DS74, sends a Telnet break command (0xF3) to the Host Module, the serial port will send a break signal of the programmed duration. Default is 350 milliseconds. Break Length is (msec)............
DS72 Host Module Upgrade Firmware Currently, While this option is available, the DS72 upgrades it’s firmware through removable EPROMS.

DS72 Host Module Active restore is.................Enabled Enable ? (Y/N, CR for no change) : RPC Management These options are independent of the power strip’s Alarm Thresholds. It is through these settings that the DS72 SNMP agent will send a (trap) to the designated SNMP Manager. This allows you to set the temperature, voltage and current threshold alarms for the unit remotely without ever entering the firmware of the RPC itself as shown.
