3. Configuring Units Before Use

The WITS unit is supplied with the GPS antenna connected and attached to the unit and will be pre-configured with all of the essential information to allow access to the Ezurio middleware server. All that the installer needs to do is to configure the SSID (and optional WEP key) of the access point that will be used to provide wireless access to the internet.

To configure the unit follow these steps:

i) Load the supplied CD into a PC and copy the UWTerminal.exe and UWLoad.exe

utilities to a suitable location.

ii) Plug the unit into the PC using the USB cable supplied.

iii) If the PC requests a driver for the hardware, then this is available on the CD. The unit

communicates using a virtual COM port.

iv) Once the driver is installed and the hardware is ready for use, the next step is to

identify the COM port needed to communicate with the unit. This can be identified by looking at the system properties by right clicking on the ‘My Computer’ icon and selecting properties. This will display the system properties screen. Select the ‘Hardware’ tab and then select ‘Device Manager’. In that screen open the ‘Ports (COM & LPT)’ heading and all of the COM ports available in the PC will be displayed. The unit will show up as a USB Serial Port. In the example below it is COM14.
