CN2610 Series

Quick Installation Guide

Fourth Edition, August 2007

1. Overview

Welcome to the Moxa CN2610 dual-LAN terminal server, a
communication server with 8 or 16 RS-232 ports and dual 10/100 Mbps
Ethernet LAN ports. The CN2610 dual-LAN terminal server can be used
to connect terminals, modems, printers, and other serial devices to LAN
hosts. Rhw CN2610 complies with TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3 specifications
using standard Ethernet 10/100BaseT and twisted pair 10/100BaseTX
cable as the transmission medium.

LCM Display

We recommend using the LCM display and four push buttons to
configure the IP address for the first time.

Basic Operation

If the CN2610 is working properly, the LCM panel will display a green
color. The red Ready LED will also light up, indicating that the CN2610
is receiving power. After the red Ready LED turns to green, you will see a
display similar to the following:

C N 2 6 1 0 - 1 6 _ 3
1 9 2 . 1 6 8 . 1 2 7 . 2 5 4

CN2610-16: The CN2610’s name
03: The CN2610’s serial number

192.168.127.254: The CN2610’s IP address

There are four push buttons on the CN2610’s nameplate. Going from left
to right, the buttons are:

Button Name Action

MENU menu

Activates the main menu, or returns to an upper
level.

up cursor

Scrolls up through a list of items shown on the
LCM panel’s second line.

down

cursor

Scrolls down through a list of items shown on the
LCM panel’s second line.

SEL select

Selects the option listed on the LCM panel’s
second line.

The buttons are manipulated in a manner similar to the way a modern
cellular phone operates. As you move through the various functions and
setting options, note that the top line shows the current menu or submenu
name, and the bottom line shows the submenu name or menu item that is
activated by pressing the SEL button.

Refer to CN2610 User’s Manual for more details.

4. Hardware Installation

1. Installing the CN2610

Open the package, and attach the CN2610 to a desktop, or fasten it to
the rack cabinet.

2. Wiring Requirements

A. Use separate paths to route wiring for power and devices. If power

wiring and device wiring paths must cross, make sure the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.

B. NOTE: Do not run signal or communication wiring and power

wiring in the same wire conduit. To avoid interference, wires with
different signal characteristics should be routed separately.

C. Where necessary, we strongly advised that you label wiring to all

devices in the system.

3. Connecting Power

AC: Connect the CN2610 100-240 VAC power line with its AC

connector. If the power is properly supplied, the “Ready” LED
will show a solid red color until the system is ready, at which
time the “Ready” LED will change to a green color.

If the power is properly supplied, the “Ready” LED will show a solid
red color until the system is ready, at which time the “Ready” LED
will change to a green color.

4. Connecting to the Network

Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the CN2610’s 10/100M
Ethernet port and the other end of the cable to the Ethernet network.
There are 2 LED indicators located on the top left and right corners of
the Ethernet connector. If the cable is properly connected, the CN2610
will indicate a valid connection to the Ethernet in the following ways:

The top right corner LED indicator maintains a solid
green color when the cable is properly connected to a
100 Mbps Ethernet network.

The top left corner LED indicator maintains a solid
orange color when the cable is properly connected to a
10 Mbps Ethernet network.

5. Connecting to a Serial Device

P/N: 1802026000213

— 4 — — 5 — — 6 —

Connect the serial data cable between the CN2610 and the serial
device.

6. Connecting to a Console

A console is a combination of keyboard and monitor, and is used to
configure settings and to monitor the status of your system. If you do
not have a network environment, use a terminal, a PC running UNIX,
or a PC with terminal emulation software (e.g., HyperTerminal in
Windows; PComm by Moxa). Use an RJ45-to-DB25 or RJ45-to-DB9
cable to connect the terminal to the console socket. Refer to the
CN2610 User’s Manual for more details.

5. Software Installation

Entering the Console Utility

Console Utility is the main application needed to set up the server/port
configuration, and to execute utilities such as ping, diagnosis, monitor,
and upgrade. There are two ways to enter the Console Utility. One is to
use terminal emulation through a console terminal, and the other is to
telnet from a network terminal.

Refer to the CN2610 User’s Manual for more details.
