1-1-3 Initial Setting of the Communication Module

You need to complete initial setting of the communication module before using MORI-SERVER. There are two components to this: 1. Setting the communication parameters, 2. Setting log output. Make these settings by following the procedure below.

1-1-3-1 Starting the MORI-SERVER Utility

To perform initial setting of the communication module, first start the MORI-SERVER utility, then make the individual settings.

1)Select "Programs" - "MORI-SERVER" - "REGTOOL" from the Start menu. The MORI-SERVER utility will start as shown in Fig. A-5.

2)To set the communications parameters, click the [COM SET] button. To set log output click the [LOG SET] button. To set the data format click the [Data format setting] button. The appropriate setting screen will open in each case.

Fig. A-5

3)To quit the MORI-SERVER utility, click the [QUIT] button or the button at the top right of the "Utility for MORI-SERVER" window.

A-6 MORI-SERVER

1-1-3-2 Setting Communications Parameters

This section explains how to make the settings relating to MORI-SERVER communications (port number and so on).

1)Start MORI-SERVER utilities by following the procedure in 1-1-3-1 "Starting the MORI-SERVER Utility" (page A-5), then click the [COM SET] button in the "Utility for MORI-SERVER" dialog box.

Fig. A-6

The "COM SET" dialog box (Fig. A-7), will be displayed.

Fig. A-7

2)Enter the port number to be used for communications in the "Port Number" textbox (Fig. A-7).

1. This parameter setting can only be changed by users with Administrator rights.

NOTE

2.Normally, the default setting "8008" is used. Change the setting of this parameter only when the "8008" port is used by other software.

CAUTION This parameter setting should only be changed by a person with a good knowledge of

the network. If the number of a port that is being used by other software is specified, it may cause problems with the software using that port.

If you change this parameter setting, you must also set the same value for the MAPPS

NOTE

port number set in 1-4-3 "MORI-SERVER FUNCTION BASIC SETTING Screen" (page A-49). If different port numbers are set for MORI-SERVER and MAPPS, communications cannot be established.

MORI-SERVER A-7

3)Set the time period before a time-out error occurs in the "Time Out (sec)" textbox (Fig. A-7).

NOTE

1. If the time set for this parameter is too short, time out may occur if processing takes some time, so make the setting 20 seconds or longer.

2.The actual time that causes a timeout error may differ from the time period set here.

4)When you have finished communications parameter entry, click the [SET] button (see Fig. A-7) to set your entries.

The settings made for the communications parameters will be confirmed and the "COM SET" dialog box will close.

To cancel the setting of the communications parameters, click the [CANCEL] button.

A-8 MORI-SERVER

1-1-3-3 Log Output Setting

This section explains the settings for the logs to be output when communications are conducted with MORI-SERVER.

1)Start the MORI-SERVER utility as described in 1-1-3-1 "Starting the MORI-SERVER Utility" (page A-5), then click the [LOG SET] button in the "Utility for MORI-SERVER" dialog box.

Fig. A-8

The "LOG SET" dialog box, shown in Fig. A-9, will be displayed.

Fig. A-9

2)For the "Log output level" in this dialog box, select one of the following three output modes: "No log mode", "Error log mode", or "Normal log mode".

<Log output mode>

•No log mode No log is output.

•Error log mode

Logs are output only when an error occurs in communication.

•Normal log mode

Logs are output when an error occurs in communication or when communication is successfully completed.

MORI-SERVER A-9

3)Check if a file appropriate as the log output destination is displayed in the "Log file path" area.

If there is no problem, proceed to step 4) below.

To change the log output destination file, follow the procedure below.

a)Click the [Brows] button in the "LOG SET" dialog box (Fig. A-9).

The "Select log file." dialog box, shown in Fig. A-10, will be displayed.

b)Select the folder to serve as the log output destination.

Fig. A-10

c)Select the file to which logs are to be output.

To create a new file, enter the name of the file in the "File name" textbox.

d)After selecting the file to which logs are to be output or entering its filename, click the [Open] button (Fig. A-10).

To cancel the change in log output destination, click the [Cancel] button.

The "Select log file." dialog box will close and the full path to the filename selected for the "Log file path" in the "LOG SET" dialog box (Fig. A-9) will be displayed.

4)When you have selected the log output level and the log output file, click the [SET] button in the "LOG SET" dialog box (Fig. A-9) to confirm the settings.

To cancel the log output setting, click the [CANCEL] button.

A-10 MORI-SERVER

1-1-3-4 Setting the Data Format

This section explains how to make the settings for two functions that operate during communications using MORI-SERVER: conversion of carriage return codes on program output and addition of the %LF code to the head of data being input.

1)Start the MORI-SERVER utility as described in 1-1-3-1 "Starting the MORI-SERVER Utility" (page A-5), then click the [Data format setting] button shown in Fig. A-11.

Fig. A-11

The "Data Format Set" dialog box, shown in Fig. A-12, will be displayed.

Fig. A-12

2)Use the "Supplement \%LF" radio button in the "Data Format Set" dialog box (Fig. A-12) to select whether the function for adding the %LF code at the head of a file for input, if there is no such code already, is on or off.

An initial %LF code is required in program files that are input into MAPPS. If the "Valid" option is selected for this function, when an attempt is made to input a file that starts with a 0 number and has no initial %LF code, a %LF code is added so that the file can be input in the required format for communications.

3)Use the "Translate LF-CRLF" radio button (Fig. A-12) to select whether the function that converts the carriage return code LF to CRLF before the data is output is on or off.

When a program is output from MAPPS, the EOB (;) code in the program is output as LF. When this function is "Valid", these LF codes are converted to CRLF codes before output, so when a program is opened using NotePad for example, it is displayed with the correct line breaks.
