1 To change the IP address, gateway address,
and subnet mask from the serial port
2 To change to default factory settings
3 To enable/disable DHCP
4 To enable/disable Terminal Server function
The iServer is shipped with all
DIP switches in "OFF" position
To set the iServer to factory default settings, slide DIP switch #2 to ON position. Power the
iServer on and wait about 10 seconds until the iServer fully boots up. Set the DIP switch
#2 back to OFF position (it does not matter if the iServer is powered ON or OFF, just make
sure that the DIP switch is set to OFF, otherwise, every time the unit is power-cycled the
factory settings will take over. See Section 4.6 for setting the iServer to factory default
using the firmware (over the LAN).
To enable the DHCP, besides using DIP switch #3, set the iServer’s IP address to 0.0.0.0.
An iServer with IP address of 0.0.0.0 will request an IP address, gateway address, and
subnet mask from the DHCP server over the Ethernet.

2.4 Serial Communication Interfaces
Two communication interfaces are supported in the standard iServer: RS232 and
RS485. In addition, the serial port can also be provided with TTL logic on request.
These standards define the electrical characteristics of a communication network. The
RS485 port of the iServer is fully compatible to use with RS485 and RS422 instruments.
The RS485 is an extended version of the RS422 communication standard which
increases the allowable number of devices from 10 to 32 by improving the electrical
characteristics.
• The RS232 standard (point-to-point) allows a single device to be connected to an
iServer. The iServer operates with full-duplex RS232 using eight wires: Rx-receive,
Tx-transmit, DTR, DSR, DCD, CTS, RTS and common ground wires. RS232 cable
length is limited to 50 feet.
• The RS485 standard (multi-point) allows one or more devices (multi-dropped) to be
connected to the iServer using a two-wire connection (half-duplex) +Rx/+Tx and
–Rx/-Tx. Use of RS485 communications allows up to 31 devices to connect to the
iServer with cable length up to 4000 feet long.
Although the RS485 is commonly referred to as a "two wire" connection, the
iServer also provides a ground/return shield connection to use as a common
connection for EMI noise protection.
• The TTL standard (point-to-point) allows a single device to be connected to an
iServer. The iServer operates with full-duplex TTL using three wires:Rx-receive,
Tx-transmit, and common ground wires.
Table 2.2 shows the differences between RS232 and RS485 communication interfaces.
Table 2.2

Electrical connections 8 wire 2 wire
Drivers per line 1 driver 32 drivers
Receivers per line 1 receiver 32 receiver
Maximum cable length 50 ft (15 meters) 4000 ft (1200 meters)
Changing between RS232 and RS485 interfaces, as well as modifying the
other parameters is possible through the iServer firmware using its home Web
page or Telnet connection (see Part 4 for details).

Table 2.4 shows the connector locations for Tx and Rx
signals for the TTL interface. The ground and +5Vdc can be
connected according to Table 2.3.
2.4.3 Wiring RS485 Interface
RS485 interface uses a two-wire communication system (one for transmitting and one for
receiving) plus a common wire to connect to the shield of the cable. It is recommended
to use a shielded cable with one twisted pair.
Use of twisted pair and shield will significantly improve noise immunity.
Figure 2.5 shows multi-point, half-duplex RS485 interface connections for the iServer.

Value of the termination resistor is not critical and depends on the cable
impedance.

2.5 Network Communication Interfaces
2.5.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout
The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the iServer for network
connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires.
One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data
signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.
Figure 2.6 RJ45 Pinout
2.5.2 10Base-T Crossover Wiring
When connecting the iServer directly to the computer, the transmit data pins of the
computer should be wired to the receive data pins of the iServer, and vice versa. The
10Base-T crossover cable with pin connection assignments are shown on Figure 2.7.
Figure 2.7 10Base-T Crossover Cable Wiring
Use straight through cable for connecting the iServer to an Ethernet hub. The
ports on the hub are already crossed.

NETWORK CONFIGURATION
3.1 Network Protocols
The iServer can be connected to the network using standard TCP/IP protocols.
It also supports ARP, HTTP (WEB server), DHCP, DNS and Telnet protocols.
3.2 Ethernet (MAC) Address
MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number.
When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates
your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address. The MAC address can be
found on the label of your device and contains 6 bytes (12 characters) of hexadecimal
numbers XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX hex
For example: 0A:0C:3D:0B:0A:0B
There is an duplicate MAC address label included with your unit.

3.3 DHCP
DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol enables individual computers or devices to
extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server). If the DHCP is enabled on
your iServer, as soon as the iServer is connected to the network, there is an exchange of
information between DHCP server and the iServer. During this process the IP address,
the Gateway address, and the Subnet Mask will be assigned to the iServer by the DHCP
server. Note that the DHCP server must be correctly configured to make such assignment.
The DHCP can also be enabled if the iServer’s IP address is set to 0.0.0.0.
If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP must be disabled. The iServer is
shipped with DHCP disabled (factory default). The DHCP can be enabled by setting the
DIP switch # 3 to the “ON” position (refer to Figure 3.2).
Figure 3.2 DIP Switch on the Bottom Side of iServer
3.4 DNS
DNS, Domain Name System enables individual computers and devices to be recognized
over a network based on a specific name instead of an IP address. For example, instead
of having to use http://128.100.101.254 (IP address), you would use only http://eis03ec
or any eight character name stored as Host Name under Access Control page in the
iServer Home Page. The default DNS name for an iServer is "eis" followed by the last
four digits of the MAC address of that particular iServer.
1. It is very important to communicate with the network administrator in order to
understand the DHCP and its existing configurations on the host server,
before enabling the DHCP on the iServer.
2. The iServers are shipped with a default static IP address of
128.100.101.254 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0.
3. On Novell networks or Windows 2000 where the DCHP is an updated
function of DNS this feature may be beneficial since a particular name can be
assigned eliminating the need for the IP address, as described in Section 3.4.

3.5 IP Address
Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address.
This IP address is used to build a connection to the iServer’s serial port. Every computer
using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address. It is divided into two portions, the
network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer on the same network uses the
same network ID. At the same time, all of them have a different host ID. For more details
about the IP address see Appendix B.
3.5.1 Default IP Address
The iServer is shipped with a default IP address set to 128.100.101.254 and Subnet
Mask of 255.255.0.0. If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet program to access
the iServer using its default IP address, make sure that the PC from which you’re
establishing the connection has an IP address that is in the same range as the iServer’s
IP address (128.100.x.x, where x can be any number from 1 to 254. Note that your PC’s
IP address cannot be the same as the iServer’s IP address). You also need to make
sure that your PC’s Subnet Mask is 255.255.0.0. This is a good way to access the
iServer over the network and make any configuration changes needed. If the factory
default address is already in use on your network, use an Ethernet crossover cable
between your computer and the iServer and modify the IP address or any other settings
within the iServer.
3.6 Port Number
All TCP connections are defined by the IP address and a port number. A port number is
an internal address that provides an interface between an application running on your
computer and the network through the TCP/IP protocol.
There are three default TCP port (socket) numbers assigned to the iServer:
1. Port (socket) number 1000 when using HTTPGET program.
2. Port (socket) number 2000 when trying to access your serial device connected to
the serial port of the iServer.
3. Port (socket) number 2002 when trying to access the iServer itself for reading or
changing the settings. This can be done using Telnet application.
Example: C:\>Telnet 128.100.101.254 2002
