NPort W2004 User’s Manual Initial IP Configuration
3-6
Serial Console (19200, n, 8, 1)
Before configuring the NPort W2004 via the serial console, turn off the power and use a serial
cable to connect the NPort W2004 to your computer’s serial port.
We suggest using MOXA PComm Terminal Emulator, which can be downloaded free of charge
from www.moxa.com
, to carry out the configuration procedure.
1. Connect NPort W2004’s serial port 1 directly to your computer’s male RS-232 serial port.
2. From the Windows desktop, click on Start # Programs # PComm Lite # Terminal
Emulator.
3. When the PComm Terminal Emulator window opens, first click on the Port Manager
menu item and select Open, or click on the Open icon.
4. The Property window opens automatically. From the Communication Parameter page,
select the appropriate COM port for the connection, COM1 in this example, and 19200 for
Baud Rate, 8 for Data Bits, None for Parity, and 1 for Stop Bits.
5. From the Property window’s Terminal page, select ANSI or VT100 for Terminal Type,
and click on OK. If you select Dumb Terminal as the terminal type, some of the console
functions—especially the “Monitor” function—may not work properly.
