1.3 Description Web-based Remote Surveillance of Temperature + Humidity and Security

The iSE environmental monitor provides Web-based remote surveillance of environmental conditions in critical HVAC applications such as computer server rooms, clean rooms, laboratories, museums, warehouses, or any remote facility. View and record Temperature, Relative Humidity and Dew Point over an Ethernet network or the Internet with no special software—just a Web browser.

EMAIL ALARMS -- The device can trigger an alarm if temperature or humidity goes above or below a set point that you determine. Your alarm can be sent by email to a single user or to a group distribution list, including text messages to cell phones and PDA’s.

PHYSICAL THREATS -- The iSE includes screw terminals for two contact closures that work with common alarm sensors. You can instruct the iSE monitor to send an alarm if a door is opened, a window is broken, or a fire sprinkler goes off.

POWER FAILURE -- The iSE monitor can trigger an alarm if the AC power fails. The iSE monitor will continue to collect data for ten days powered by a standard 9 Volt alkaline battery (included). The data is stored in nonvolatile flash memory and can later be downloaded over the Ethernet.

Page 7

LOCAL ALARMS -- The iSE monitor includes two 1.5 Amp output relays that are controlled by the alarm conditions you select. The relays can trigger flashing lights and a siren for example to alert personnel near the scene.

With the easy Web-based setup page, the two relays can be programmed for any combination of temperature or humidity, and high or low set points, as well as alarm conditions triggered by contact closures. The relays can also be programmed to turn off when conditions return to normal, or programmed to remain latched and require a manual reset.

VIEW CHARTS AND GRAPHS ON THE WEB -- The iSE serves Active Web Pages to display real time readings, display charts of temperature and humidity, or log data in standard data formats for use in a spreadsheet or data acquisition program such as Excel or Visual Basic.

The virtual chart viewed on the web page is a JAVA™ Applet that records a chart over the LAN or Internet in real time. With the iSE, there is no need to invest time and money learning a proprietary software program to log or chart the data.

Chart scales are fully adjustable on the fly. For example, the chart can display one minute, one hour, one day, one week, one month or one year. Temperature and humidity can be charted across the full span (-40 to 124°C, and 0 to 100% RH) or within any narrow range such as (20 to 30°C).

LINK TO WEB CAM OR IP CAMERA -- The Web page includes a link to a “Web Cam” or “IP camera” (not included). If you get a message about an alarm condition, you can quickly click on the link to view the actual scene over the Internet.

FLASH MEMORY -- The iSE records data on a removable 2-MByte Flash Memory card (included) that can store one full year of readings taken at one-minute intervals (or two months of readings taken at ten second intervals).

Up to four years of temperature + humidity readings can be stored on the optional 8 MByte card. Even if the Ethernet network fails, data will continuously record on the builtin nonvolatile flash memory.

The iSE monitors come complete with a plug-in temperature and humidity probe that mounts on the instrument or separately with the six foot extension cable (included).

The temperature/ humidity sensors are interchangeable and do not require routine calibration. And if a replacement sensor is ever needed, the instrument does not require calibration.

Installation and operation of the iSE monitor requires no special training, tools, or software. The device connects to any Ethernet network with standard cable and is powered by a universal AC adapter which is supplied with the product.

AWARD-WINNING TECHNOLOGY -- The iSE is simple to install and use, and features award-winning iServer technology that requires no special software except a Web Browser.

The iSE connects to an Ethernet Network with a standard RJ45 connector and sends data in standard TCP/IP packets. It is easily configured with a simple menu using a Web Browser and can be password protected. From within an Ethernet LAN or over the Internet, the user simply types its IP address or an easy to remember name such as "Cleanroom 5" or "Server Room" in any Web Browser, and the iSE serves a Web Page with the current readings.

Page 8

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS -- The iSE is great for monitoring and recording temperature + humidity in applications such as: clean rooms, computer rooms, HVAC systems, pharmaceutical and food processing and storage, hospitals, laboratories, semiconductor fabs, electronic assembly, warehousing, museums, manufacturing, greenhouses, farm animal shelters, and many more.

The following example illustrates how you can hookup an iSE, a network display (iLD), and a network camera to your network:

NETWORK CONFIGURATION

3.1 Network Protocols

The iSE 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 a label attached to 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

Remove the small label with the default IP address and there will be room to put your IP address. See Figure 3.1

Figure 3.1 Labeling

Page 17

3.3 DHCP

OFF

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 iSE, as soon as the iSE is connected to the network, there is an exchange of information between DHCP server and the iSE. During this process the IP address, the Gateway address, and the Subnet Mask will be assigned to the iSE by the DHCP server. Note that the DHCP server must be configured correctly to do such assignment.

If fixed or static IP address is desired, the DHCP must be disabled. The iSE 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).

DIP switch # 3 shown in “ON” position

Figure 3.2 DIP Switch on the Bottom Side of iSE

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://192.168.1.200 (IP address), you would use only http://eis03ec or any eight character name stored as Host Name under the Access Control page in the iSE Home Page. The default DNS name for an iSE is "eis" followed by the last four digits of the MAC address of that particular iSE.

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 iSE.

2. The iSE is shipped with a default static IP address of

192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.

3. On Novell networks or Windows 2000 Server 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 iSE. 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.

Telnet 192.168.1.200

The iSE is shipped with a default IP address set to 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of

255.255.255.0. If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet program to access the

iSE 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 iSE’s IP address (192.168.1.x, where x can be any number from 1 to 254.

Your PC’s IP address cannot

be the same as the iSE’s IP address).

You also need to make sure that your PC’s Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. This is a good way to access the iSE over the network and make any configuration changes needed. If 192.168.1.200 is already in use on your network, use an Ethernet crossover cable between your computer and the iSE to change the IP address or any other settings within the iSE.

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 socket port numbers assigned to the iSE:

1. Port (socket) number 1000 when using HTTPget program.

2. Port (socket) number 2000 when trying to access the sensor (probe) connected to the port of the iSE to receive data.

3. Port (socket) number 2002 when trying to access the iSE itself for Power Recycling the iSE remotely. This can be done using Windows standard Telnet application.

Power recycling the iSE can also be done through the iSE’s Web Server (see Section

4.2). Telnet stands for Telecommunications Network, is a protocol that provides a way for

users (or clients) to connect to computers (or servers) on a network, whether in the next building or across the world.

Example: C:\>Telnet 192.168.1.200 2002

You will then get the following screen.

Figure 3.3 Telnet Login into the iSE

You can open a Telnet session using other terminal emulation programs like Tera Term Pro (downloadable from the internet), which is a free software for MS-Windows. It supports VT100 emulation, Telnet connection and serial com port connections.

This iSE can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be configured using a Web browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer. It can also be configured using the iConnect Configuration Software.

If DHCP and DNS servers are used, the connection is very simple, no need to find the right IP address or watch for network conflicts, these are all done for you by your network DHCP and DNS server. All that is left for you to do, is to enable DHCP on the iSE (see Section 2.2) and use a straight network cable to connect the iSE to a hub and power it up.

If DHCP is not the preferred method, you can configure your PC’s network connection with an IP address of 192.168.1.x that is in the same range as the iSE’s default IP address (192.168.1.200) and connect to the iSE using a cross-over network cable between your PC’s network port and the iSE. After you’re done with configuring the iSE, you can always set your PC back to its original settings.

On your computer, from the MS-DOS Prompt window type "ping 192.168.1.200” and press Enter. If DHCP and DNS servers are used type “ping eisxxxx”, where xxxx are the last four digits of the iSE’s MAC address, located on the back of the device. You should get a reply as shown in Figure 4.1.

You can use the iSE host name (eisxxxx) instead of its IP address only if your DHCP server is configured to communicate with your DNS. Please consult with your IT department for details.

4.0 Testing the Connection

This proves that the connection is proper and you can get into configuration or run mode using the Telnet or Web browser.

Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the iSE’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it.

The iSE is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of

255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that

is in the same range as the iSE’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the iSE using a crossover network cable between your PC and the iSE.

With this completed, you can go to the DOS-Prompt and ping 192.168.1.200. If you receive responses back (Figure 4.1), you can go to a Web browser and type in http://192.168.1.200 and it will take you to the iSE’s main web page.

Select

button, you’ll be asked for the password. The default LOGIN password is "12345678" and the ADMINISTRATOR password is "00000000", then you should be on the Access Control page were you can simply type in the desired Static IP address, and click Save.

Click the following button to activate the new settings.

For the IP address to take effect, the iSE needs to be turned OFF/ON. Clicking the “Power Recycle” button will turn the iSE OFF and ON. Pressing the physical button marked “RESET” on the iSE does the same thing.

You can now connect the iSE to an Ethernet hub using a straight through cable, power it up, and follow the ping routine mentioned in the previous section.

Read Sensor

While accessing the Read Sensor page, If a blank screen appears without any “java application running” or image of a “Java logo”, please verify you have the latest Java Runtime Environment installed and configured according to the following instructions. If you do not have Java Runtime Environment, you may download it from our website or contact the Customer Service Department nearest you.

Figure 4.7 Read Sensor

4.3.1.1 Java Runtime Environment 1.4 Setup instructions

1. Go to your computer's Control Panel. Open the Java Plug-in

2. Select the "Cache" Tab Un-check the "Enable Caching" box

3. Select the "Proxy" Tab. Follow these Browser Proxy Selection instructions

below. (Generally, un-check the box if accessing an iSE on your local network and check the box for access from your internal network to the internet.)

4. Refresh or restart the webpage.

Page 25

4.3.1.2 Java Runtime Environment 1.5 (5.0) Setup instructions

1. Go to your computer's Control Panel. Open the Java Plug-in

2. Click on "Settings" & "View Applets" in the "General" tab.

3. Select the "Settings" button on the General Tab Un-check the "Enable Caching" box. Then close dialog box to show the General Tab

again

4. Select the "Network Settings" button on the General Tab. Proceed to the Browser tab. Follow the Browser Proxy Selection instructions

below.You should either select the "Use Browser Settings" option or the "Direct Connection" option depending on the network connections between your computer and the iSE product. (Generally, select "Direct Connection" if accessing an iSE on your local network and select "Use Browser Settings" option for access from your internal network to the internet.)

5. Refresh or restart the webpage.

4.3.1.3 Browser Proxy Selection Accessing iSE units within your internal network

• Usually when the computer and iSE are on an internal network, you will not use Proxy

server access.

• You should un-check the "Use Browser Settings" option on the "Proxy" tab. Accessing iSE units using the internet

• Often the web browser will use Proxy server access to the internet. In such cases, the

default Java runtime settings on the "Proxy" tab should suffice. The default setting is the "Use Browser Settings" option.

• If the default proxy setting doesn't work, then you may have a situation where the proxy settings of the web browser are incorrect.

Diagnostics:

If the web page of the iSE appears, then the HTTP Proxy is working fine. If the data isn't updated on the iSE upon selecting the Read Sensor web page, there may be a

problem with access through a winsock proxy server. In such cases your network administrator will need to provide the winsock proxy server and port #s. (If the administrator requires knowledge of the port # required on the iSE, the value is 2003).

These values should be entered into the Socks line on the "Proxy" tab (of the Java Plugin control panel) or into the "connections" tab on the View,Internet Options dialog and make sure that the Proxy tab shows that the "Use Browser Settings" option is not selected (i.e. when you specify proxy connections in the Java Plugin control panel.

Accessing iSE units over Peer-to-Peer network A simple peer-to-peer network is setup by disconnecting from the main network (as users will

often do when trying to do initial setup of the iSE) and then connecting the iSE to another computer using a ethernet hub, an ethernet switch, or a Cross-over cable connection.

Often when using a peer-to-peer network, the Java plugin and the web browser (such as Internet Explorer) have internet connections configured to connect through proxy servers. In such case, you will need to simply assign the final IP address on this peer to peer network and then view the iSE charts after connecting the iSE into the regular network. Otherwise you can disable the Java plug-in's "Use Browser Settings" temporarily and then reconfigure the Java plug-in settings for regular network access after testing the iSE chart access on your peer-to-peer network.

The "Use Browser Settings" should not be selected. And the HTTP and Socks proxy entries should be blank. Also, setup the internet browser so that proxy servers are disabled.

items, except “Access Control”, which requires an Administrator password. The default Login password is 12345678. This password can be up to 16 alpha-numeric case-sensitive characters. If there is no Login Password assigned (blank box) the iSE will not require a password to access and modify iSE Home page menu items.

Admin (administrator) Password: This allows users to access and modify the "Access Control" page. The default password is 00000000. This password can be up to 16 alphanumeric case-sensitive characters. If there is no Administrator Password assigned (blank box) the iSE will not require password to access and modify "Access Control" page.

Host Name: Refer to Section 3.4, DNS. MAC Address: This is also called Hardware address or Ethernet address, which is

assigned to the iSE at production. The MAC (Media Access Control) address is the iSE’s unique hardware number and is not changeable.

IP Address: The IP (Internet Protocol) address is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Ethernet or the Internet. The iSE’s default IP address is 192.168.1.200. The iSE’s IP address should be changed to fit user’s networking environment. Consult with your IT department for obtaining an IP address.

Gateway Address: A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network. A gateway is often associated with a router, which knows where to direct a given packet of data that arrives at the gateway. If the iSE is sending packets to another network node that is not on the same network on which the iSE is connected, a gateway address needs to be given to the iSE. The gateway address should be the IP address of the router connected to the same LAN to which the iSE is connected. The iSE’s default gateway address is 0.0.0.0. Consult with your IT department for obtaining a gateway address.

Subnet Mask: It is a 32-bit number that is used to determine which part of the IP address is the network portion and which part is the host portion. The iSE’s default subnet mask is

255.255.255.0. Consult with your IT department for obtaining a subnet mask. Camera IP: If there is a networked camera on the LAN, it can be accessed from the iSE’s

Home Page by adding the Camera’s IP address in this field.

4.3.5 Configuration

Setting up the Flash Memory Card can be done in the Configuration page. From the Home Page Menu click on to get to the page (see Figure 4.11).

Configuration

General Description of the Configuration page: There are two general sections “Flash Card Memory” and “Server”. Flash Card Memory consists of the following titles: Real Time Clock (RTC), Title, Alarm Setup, and Flash Recording. Server consists of Terminal Server and Remote Access.

Title and Flash Recording selections can be editted once by selecting “Activation StartRecord” and after that, no modification will take place unless recording is stopped (the reason for this is to be compliant with the data logging rules). The remaining parameters can be changed during recording as explained below.

There are several scenarios depending on the state of the Flash Card and the Real Time Clock (RTC):

#1) RTC is not set and Flash Card is empty. All the fields must be updated exactly according to the indicated format, “Adjust RTC

Only” check box must be left unchecked, “Activation” selection must set to “StartRecord” and click the “Update” button. Having done this, it is recommended to select “Configuration” from “Activation” drop down window, click the “Update” button, set the “Activation” to “Status/RTC/Alarm” and click the “Update” button one more time to review/verify that the setup took place as it was intended.

#2) RTC is set, and recording is in progress. The only possible setups are to update “Date” and “Time” of the Real Time Clock

along with checking “Adjust RTC Only” box. Also, alarms can be updated provided that “Activation” is set to “Status/RTC/Alarm”. Otherwise, the recording has to be stopped by selecting “StopRecord” of the “Activation” drop down window prior to modifying the Flash Card setup. An alternative way to stop recording is to push Standby Button (refer to Figure 2.3) of the unit.

#3) RTC is set, recording is stopped, and Flash Card is not empty. This means that a pre-recorded Flash Card is installed, and by activating the chart the

archived data can be viewed (Refer to Figure 4.8). The chart has the following selections: 1 Minute, 1 Day, 1 Week, 1 Month, 1 Year

In other words, they are the last specified selection e.g. 1 Day means the last day of the recorded data. Having done the selection, the “Archives_Enable” button must be clicked, which will then change to “Archives_Done” and the data will be retrieved accordingly. Also, the corresponding Start and End dates will reflect the respective time duration e.g. refer to Figure 4.8 which is the last 1 Day, the dates are:

02/20/2004 09:42:10 to 02/21/2004 09:42:10. #4) RTC is not set and the Flash Card is not empty. This is similiar to item 3) above except that at the power-up the installed Flash Card

was not empty. Or, the Flash Card Reset Button (refer to Figure 2.3) was pushed.

A) Configuration/Device Setup

Clicking on the No. 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 allows you to modify the Sensor Parameters (see Section 4.3.6 for more details).

B) Real Time Clock

RTC Date and Time: The formats are mm/dd/yyyy and hh:mm:ss. The exact formats

are required otherwise an error message will appear in the Title box. Note: time is military time/24 hour based.

Adjust RTC Only: If checked, the clock will be updated and nothing else, provided

that “Activation” is set to “Status/RTC/Alarm”. To verify the clock, set the “Activation” to “Configuration”, click Update button, then set “Activation” to “Status/RTC/Alarm” and click Update button one more time.

Time Stamp: If checked, the Humidity/Temperature/Dewpoint values will be stamped

with time and date using Port 1000 (HTTPget program must be used, see Section 4.5.1).

Secured Applet: If checked, the LOGIN password is required to open “Read Sensor”

and “Chart” pages.

C) Flash Card Size: Reports the Flash Card density and if it is already recorded, how many

locations are filled.

0-Megabytes: Flash Card is not installed or a bad Flash Card

2-Megabytes, 4-Megabytes, 8-Megabytes: available sizes of Flash Cards.

D) Flash Card Message: Describes RTC setup, listed in the previous 4 scenarios.

Flash Card Module Malfunctional Open Sensor Flash Card Standby Flash Card Recording Stopped Flash Card Pre-Recorded Flash Card Recording Complete Flash Card Recording On Wait Reading Flash Flash Card Module Not Initialized Recording Initialized Flash Card Corrupt Initialization

If the battery is not connected or the voltage is low, the statement “Low Battery” will be added to the above statements. You may also see a statement “Archive Busy” if another client is busy receiving archive data. In this case, refrain from activating the applet, instead keep clicking the Update button and make sure “Activation” is set to “Status/RTC/Alarm” until the “Archive Busy” statement is no longer displayed.

E) Alarm Setup: There are two alarms which can be assigned to temperature and

humidity (one alarm to each variable). Selection of Temperature (T) or Humidity (H) and Above Setpoint (High) or Below Setpoint (Low).

Temperature

and Humidity: Disable, Low, High, High/Low Disable: Alarm is disabled (no alarm function) Low: Alarm is enabled only with Low setpoint High: Alarm is enabled only with High setpoint High/Low: Alarm is enabled only with High and Low setpoints

Page 32

4.3.5 Configuration (continued) Example: If High/Low is selected, the temperature will be monitored against these two

High and Low values. If temperature goes above High value (082.5), Relay 1 will be energized, and if temperature goes below Low value (032.5) Relay 1 will be energized.

Temp Status: Unlatch, Latch, Clear Latch, Chart SP Humidity Status: Unlatch, Latch, Clear Latch, Chart SP

Unlatch: The relay in the iSE will be turned on (closed) when the temperature and/or

humidity values fall outside of Setpoint range. When the temperature and/or humidity values are back within the range, the relay will be turned off (opened).

Latch: The relay in the iSE will be turned on (closed) when the temperature and/or humidity values fall outside of Setpoint range and will remain on until the user turns it off.

Clear Latch: This option will clear the latch, meaning the activated alarm will be disabled. Chart SP: Selecting this option will add the setpoints to the ”Chart”. SP_T_Low, SP_T_High and SP_H_Low, SP_H_High: Editable box for Setpoint

values. The format is nnn.n, it must be followed exactly otherwise the modification will not take place for any modified item in the Alarm Setup.

F) Flash Recording

Title: Editable field with up to 16 characters long. The given name will display as a title

on the “Chart” and “Read Sensor” pages either for the real-time data or the stored data.

Degree Unit: The unit of temperature either in degree Fahrenheit or degree Centigrade.

LCD/PWR: The selections are “ON ”, “OFF ”, and “UPS”. Selecting “OFF” will cause

the LCD to turn off during a power outage, provided the battery is connected. The current consumption is about 1.5 mA or 3 mA depending on “OFF ” or “ON ” selection respectively. If recording is “ON “, depending on the recording interval, the LCD will be updated every 10 seconds or 1 minute. Therefore, when the LCD is set to “ON ”, it could take some time before the LCD is turned on. If recording is not “ON “, the LCD will be updated every 10 seconds.

Selecting “UPS” puts the iSE into full operational mode when it’s running on the battery (S5 jumper needs to be installed, see Section 2.4 and 2.7). This means that in case of power outage, sensing, recording, LCD display, and network communication capabilities of the iSE will all operate on the battery. Due to heavy power consumption the battery will not last more than an hour.

Type: The selections are: “Limited”, “Wrap”, or “Nonwrap”.

Limited: You must define the Start Date and Time, and End Date and Time in which

you need the recording to be done. Wrap: You only need to define the Start Date and Time. The iSE will record data until the

Flash is full, then the iSE will continue to record and overwrite the existing data. Nonwrap: You only need to define the Start Date and Time. The iSE will record data

until the Flash is full, then the iSE will stop recording.

Interval

: The recording interval at which the temperature or humidity is being stored

into the Flash Card. The selections are “10 seconds“ and “1 minute“.

To avoid any miscommunications when downloading the stored data using the iFlash program or from the “Chart” page, it is strongly recommended to let the recording run for a minimum of 3 minutes if the time interval is 10 seconds (from the “Configuration” page), and 15 minutes if the time interval is 1 minute.

Page 33

4.3.5 Configuration (continued) Activation: The selections are “Status/RTC/Alarm”, “StartRecord ”, “Configuration”,

“StopRecord ”and “Reset”. Refer to previous scenarios #1 and #2 at the beginning of this

Section 4.3.5 for more details. Status/RTC/Alarm: Select “Configuration” and “Status/RTC/Alarm”, each followed by

clicking the Update button to retrieve the latest recording settings. By selecting “Status/RTC/Alarm” only, followed by clicking the “Update” button the iTHX will report back all the settings, but the “Recording” settings.

StartRecord: Select to initiate a recording. Configuration: Select to retrieve the latest recording settings, followed by

“Status/RTC/Alarm” option.

StopRecord: Select to stop an ongoing recording. Reset: Selecting this option will reset the flash memory, LCD, and recording sections to

a fresh start. It is suggested to select “Reset ” followed by clicking the “Update” button if you experience recording problems.

Start Date, Time: Starting date and time for recording. The format is mm/dd/yyyy and hh:mm:ss, it must be followed exactly. Entry is required for all Types of Flash Recording.

End Date, Time: Ending date and time for recording. The format is mm/dd/yyyy and hh:mm:ss, it must be followed exactly. Entry is required for Limited Type of Flash

Recording only. NOTE 1: While the recording is in progress, the letter “R” of RH, located on the LCD screen

blinks continuously. NOTE 2: Downloading data and recording can not be done at the same time. While

downloading data, the writing process to the flash memory will be internally disabled while the data is being read from the memory flash. For small amounts of data to be retrieved (1 Day or 1 Week), this is not a significant interruption in the recording data. However, for large amounts of data (1 Month or 1 Year) it may take 4 to 8 minutes to download the data. In “Archives_Enabled “ mode, charting remains static, while data download is taking place.

NOTE 3: The number of humidity/temperature values that can be recorded depends on the memory flash capacity (2 Mbytes, 4 Mbytes or 8 Mbytes) and recording interval time, e.g. 1 minute interval for 4 Mbytes is 1,081,212 minutes or 750 days. If the flash is busy sending data to the applet to chart the archive, the iSE will refuse to initiate a call to provide archived data to the second applet until it has finished with the first one.

NOTE 4: In case of a power outage and no battery backup, if the unit is recording, the recording will stop but the data that was stored will be saved. Please note, the last recorded data (30 minutes to an hour, depending on time interval) could be lost, due to the fact that the data is initially stored to the buffer before it is transferred to the Flash Memory and loss of power will erase the data in the buffer.

NOTE 5: After you “StartRecord” the flash recording followed by clicking the “Update” button, if you then need to make any changes in the Flash Recording section you must either select “StopRecord” followed by clicking the “Update” button or push the reset button on the side of the iSE and reconfigure the Flash Recording section.

NOTE 6: If you stop the recording prematurely, when you download the data, you will lose the last 256 bytes of the data that was left in the buffer and was not transferred into the flash card. Therefore, we strongly suggest downloading the data while the recording is still on and then stop the recording if desired.

4.3.5 Configuration (continued)

G) Input Contact Closure

Contact 1 Contact 2

: Disable, Normally Open, Normally Close : Disable, Normally Open, Normally Close

Disabled: Contact is dysfunctional. Normally Open: Contact is open. If the contact is closed, there will be an Output High or

Low, depending on which output is selected. Read Sensor page will display: Normal. Normally Close: Contact is closed. If the contact is open, there will be an Output High

or Low, depending on which output is selected. Read Sensor page will display: Active.

Active Contact Output

: Active High, Active Low. The Output can be High or Low when

the status on the input contact is changed.

Output Type

: Unlatch, Latch, Clear Latch

H) Terminal Server

TCP/UDP*

: The iSE supports TCP and UDP protocols (default is TCP). If UDP is

selected, it can be configured either for Broadcast UDP or Directed UDP. In case of Broadcast UDP, the iSE will transmit the data to every node on the network. This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to 255.255.255.255.

The Broadcast UDP is a practical solution when one iSE needs to communicate with multiple nodes over the network. In the case of directed UDP, the iSE will transmit the data to a specific node on the network. This can be accomplished if the Remote IP Address is set to the IP address of that specific node.

Server Type

: Continuous mode sends the temperature and humidity to the Ethernet,

every two seconds. It is mainly used to send readings to a remote display. Command mode (default) needs a command to query the iSE to send the reponse back to querying device.

Forward CR

: Forward CR can be enabled and disabled. If enabled the iSE will forward

a <CR> along with the data to a network host.

Number of Connections

: The range is from 0 to 5. If 0 is selected, the Terminal Server

feature is disabled. This means that no network connection can be made to the sensor connected to the iSE. If 1 is selected, only one network connection can be made to the iSE’s. Any number more than 1 would allow that number of network hosts to read from the iSE simultaneously (default is 5).

Port

: Port 2000 is the default TCP port for the iSE’s port to which the sensors are

connected. Ports 1000 (used for HTTPget, refer to Section 4.5), 2002, 2003, and 2004 are reserved for internal use.

Terminal Server usually describes a device that exchanges data between Ethernet/TCPIP networks and RS-232/RS-485 systems. With this iSE, the data is obtained digitally from the sensor (irrelevant to RS-232 or RS-485 interface) and can be accessed from anywhere on the network.

A computer program, such as Mail Notifier, OPC Server, iLog, iFlash or HTTPget can send TCP requests and obtain readings using the Terminal Server feature.

Remote IP Address

: iSE can establish a connection to a remote device (e.g. an iLD

Remote Display with an Ethernet iSE embedded board) with this IP.

Remote Port

: (default 2000) the remote port number for the connection. Ports 1000

(used for HTTPget, refer to Section 4.5), 2002, 2003, and 2004 are reserved for internal use.

Remote Access

:** Remote Access can be enabled and disabled. If enabled, the iSE

can send its data to a remote node on the same network (the “Remote IP address” and “Remote Port” must be entered).

*TCP/UDP: when UDP mode is selected, Remote Access should be disabled and Remote IP and Port are the UDP remote listening IP and Port. If the Remote IP is set to 255.255.255.255, the UDP packet becomes a broadcasting packet which will allow any device listening to the Remote port to receive the packet.

**If Remote Access is enabled, Terminal Server is automatically disabled.

Tera Term - 206.29.25.27 VT

File Edit Setup Control Window Help

Below are some definitions of terms used in the Sensor Parameters page.

Sensor Name: shows on the Configuration and the Read Sensor page. Remote Display Format: Remote display format is for Terminal Server in continuous

mode. H37.9% in humidity setting, displays H and 37.9% is the humidity value displayed. Example: if the humidity is 37.9, then H37.9% will be seen in the remote display. If no

format is specified (blank), there is no reading sent out. Remote End Char: The default value is 0D (Hex representation of <CR>). This means

that the iSE sends <CR> after each temperature, humidity, dewpoint and contact value. This will be done either in Continuous or Command mode.

This is how the data will appear on the host with 0D assigned:

T75.7F H37.9% D44.9F C1Disabe C2Disabe

If the end character for instance is 20 (Hex representation of space), the data will then appear as:

T75.7F H37.9% D44.9F C1Disabe C2Disabe

If nothing is set for the “Remote End Char” field, the iSE will then forward the data to the LAN with no

characters followed.

Offset

: Since the sensing probe is solid state electronics, there is no need for

calibration. If it’s determined that the readings are slightly off, the user can manually assign numerical values to adjust the readings for temperature, humidity and dewpoint. For temperature offset, the unit must be in degree C. The Offset can be changed while recording is on.

4.4 Telnet Setup

Set the Number of Connections to 1-5 other than 0, using telnet simulation program connect to iSE. In continuous mode, the telnet teminal will receive continuous messages from the iSE. In command mode, the command can be sent to query the iSE and get a response back. Refer to Figure 3.3

Send remote reset: Telnet port 2002 will bring a terminal for admin password. After typing the password and following with the end character, the message Admin. Login Successful will be showed on the terminal. Now type "reset" following with return character to reset the iSE. If no character is received within 20 seconds, the terminal will be closed automatically.

Initiating the archive chart while Telnet is active will halt Telnet until the archive chart is done.

Page 37

4.5 HTTPget Program

The HTTPget software is used to send a single HTTP or TCP request to an iSE product. In contrast, the telnet or Hyperterminal programs allow a continuous connection with multiple requests to be sent to the iSE product.

Generally HTTPget is used for simply programming an IP address to the iSE or for quickly obtaining a reading of from a device.

The iSE product must be configured from the configuration web page so that the "Server Type" value is set to "Command" (This is positioned under the heading of Terminal Server). Also the Number of Connections may need to be set to "0" to enable Port 1000 (Port 1000 is for access in a non-standard terminal mode). To use Port 2000 access (where "2000" is the value stored in "Port"), the Number of Connections should be set to "2" for general usage. The value of 2 can later be changed to a value from 1 to 5 depending on needs for secure access or fault tolerance.

Whenever Terminal Server service (using Port 2000 by default) is required, the Number of Connections must be set to a value from 1 to 5. The Terminal Server mode is the recommended mode for the most reliable connection when operating with NEWPORT software or with other programs supporting TCPIP communications. The Port 1000 access can be used with NEWPORT software and may be needed with some iSE products when you need to view readings from the web page while simultaneously collecting data through TCPIP communications.

4.5.1 HTTPget using Port 1000

You can setup and read the information from the iSE by using the HTTPget program. The following program can be used to read data from the embedded server firmware by using TCP port 1000. The command string is sent to this TCP port, then the response can be read back from the same socket.

The HTTPget.exe file is used to setup and read information from the iSE. This file will be automatically installed when you install the MailNotifier software available on our website and CD.

Notes on using HTTPget : The HTTPget.exe program is installed to the windows directory (usually c:\winnt or

c:\windows) when installing the Mail Notifier software.

1. Open up a command window (or have a DOS window) a) Click on start menu b) Click on "Run" c) In the dialog box that appears, type "cmd" or "command" and click on "OK" button. d) A command window should now appear.

2. If you now type "HTTPget" and press the "enter" key, the program options should be displayed.

3. Next run HTTPget with the options displayed as shown in the following text

Page 39

4.5.2 HTTPget and ARP to setup Device IP Address

Use the iConnect software, which may be downloaded from our website, to do these IP changes whenever possible.

Use ARP first to assign the mac address to a static IP address in computer arp table by this command:

arp –s 192.168.1.200 00-03-34-00-00-06-b6

Then use the following command to assign new IP to the device:

httpget –r –S "00000000" 192.168.1.200:1

where:

“00000000” is admin. password. If the password is wrong, the unit will ignore the new IP. If the new IP is taken, you will get the message " New IP is Assigned" after the HTTPget command. The device will reset automatically. (TX and RX led is on for 2 seconds).

“192.168.1.200” is an example of an IP address. It is replaced with an IP address suitable for your network

“00-03-34-00-00-06-b6” is replaced with your iSE product MAC address.

ARP is the Internet layer protocol responsible for matching or obtaining the MAC (hardware) address that corresponds to a particular IP address. The ARP command allows the user to view the current contents of the ARP cache of the local computer (residing on the same network). Microsoft includes the ARP.EXE utility for viewing and modifying the ARP cache with its Windows products. The following ARP commands can be used to view cache entries:

• arp –a  Use this command to view all ARP cache entries.

• arp –a plus IP address  Use this command to view ARP cache entries associated

with one particular interface on a network with multiple adapters.

• arp –g  Same as arp –a.

• arp –N  Use this command to display ARP entries for specific network interface.

• arp – s plus IP address plus Physical address  Use this command to manually add

a permanent static entry to the ARP cache.

• arp –d  Use this command to manually delete a static entry.

Ping the destination computer using IP address first before using the arp -a command.

The following window shows examples of arp commands and responses.

• Your computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.118

• The destination computer has an IP address of 192.168.1.96

For complete information of how to use the Mail Notifier software, click on the Help menu of the main window.

The Mail Notifier software generates email notifications for alarm conditions. Users can be notified automatically of alarm conditions monitored via internet connections throughout the world. By use of the email forwarding of alarm conditions, alarm conditions can be monitored on a network isolated from the internet and forwarded to connections on the Internet.

The Mail Notifier utility operates under Windows 98, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP in conjunction with existing email that supports the MAPI messaging interface. If MS Outlook has been loaded, the MAPI support should be available.

4.8.1 Installation

The Mail Notifier must be loaded on a computer running Microsoft Windows (versions specified earlier) using an email program that provides MAPI access. Network access must be available between this computer and the iSE. Network access must also be available from this computer to the appropriate email server and from the email server to the recipient’s email server.

Email Setup

The Mail Notifier is compatible with original MS OutlookTMand OutlookTM2002 to 2005. The Mail Notifier will attempt to automatically identify whether the Outlook is a newer

version. A red bar appears under the Mail Notifier splash window to confirm that the detection of the 2002 or newer version is acceptable. With the newer versions, no additional steps should be taken to enable the connection between the Mail Notifier and the Email server.

MS Outlook tends to require that the users respond to a “login box” in order for email access to be activated for Mail Notifier. Some other email clients may allow for Mail Notifier to gain access without user login, as may be desired for a system recovering from a power outage. See the Help files for more information.

APPENDIX A GLOSSARY

User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol

address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethernet local area network, however, addresses for attached devices are 48-bits long. (The physical machine address is also known as a Media Access Control or MAC address.) A table, usually called the ARP cache, is used to maintain a correlation between each MAC address and its corresponding IP address. ARP provides the protocol rules for making this correlation and providing address conversion in both directions.

Ethernet is a network protocol defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard. Ethernet-based networks use MAC Address rather then IP Address to exchange data between computers. By using ARP and adding TCP/IP support, Ethernet devices may be connected as part of the Internet. An Ethernet LAN typically uses coaxial cable or special grades of twisted pair wires. The most commonly installed Ethernet systems are called 10BASE-T and provide transmission speeds up to 10 Mbps. Devices are connected to the cable and compete for access using a Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) protocol.

IP (Internet Protocol) is the method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet.

IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet.

IP Netmask is a 32-bit pattern of bits used to determine which part of the IP address is the network portion and which part is the host portion.

MAC (Media Access Control) Address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the Internet from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN.

Ping is a utility that tests the network connectivity. It is used to determine if the host is capable of exchanging information with another host.

Port number/Socket number is a way to identify a specific process to which an Internet or other network message is to be forwarded when it arrives at a server. It is a predefined address that serves as a route from the application to the Transport layer or from the Transport layer to the application of the TCP/IP system.

Sockets are a method for communication between a client program and a server program in a network and defined as "the endpoint in a connection." Information transferred across the Internet primarily occurs between sockets.

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the basic communication language or protocol of the Internet. When you are set up with direct access to the Internet, your computer is provided with a copy of the TCP/IP program just as every other computer that you may send messages to or get information from also has a copy of TCP/IP. TCP/IP often is used as a general term to indicate generic access to the Internet.

UDP/IP (User Datagram Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the TCP/IP standard protocol that allows an application program on one machine to send a datagram to an application program on another. The UDP can be either in Broadcast or Directed form. The Broadcast UDP transmits data to every node on the same network. The Directed UDP transmits data to one node only.

Appendix B IP Address

An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes:

• A network ID number identifying a network.

• A host ID number identifying a computer on the network.

All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C

• Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID. They can support

a large number of hosts, approximately 2 = 16,777,216 computers per network.

The IP addresses range in binary from 00000001.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx

to 01111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx

The IP addresses range in decimal from 1.x.x.x to 127.x.x.x

Class A network ID’s support a very large number of hosts.

• Class B addresses have 16-bits of network ID and 16-bits of host ID. They can

support approximately 216= 65,536 computers per network.

The IP addresses range in binary from 10000000 00000000.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx

to 10111111 11111111.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx

The IP addresses range in decimal from 128.0.x.x TO 191.255.xxx.xxx

Class B network ID’s support a medium number of hosts.

• Class C addresses have 24-bits of network ID and 8-bits of host ID. They can support

approximately 28= 256 computers per network.

The IP addresses range in binary from 11000000.00000000.00000000.xxxxxxxx

to 11011111.11111111.11111111.xxxxxxxx

The IP addresses range in decimal from 192.0.0.xxx to 223.255.255.xxx

Class C network ID’s support a small number of hosts.

The rest of the addresses are divided into two classes, D and E. Class D networks are not assigned to the host. They are used for multicasting. The address range from 224.x.x.x to 239.x.x.x

Class E networks are experimental or reserved addresses. The address range from 240.x.x.x to 247.x.x.x

Appendix C IP Netmask

IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet mask for address Classes A, B, and C. Each bit that is set to "1" in the subnet mask corresponds to the bit in the IP address that is to be used as the network ID. Each bit that is set to "0" in the subnet mask corresponds to a bit in the IP address that is to be used as the host ID.

Address Class Mask Binary Value Mask Decimal Value

00000000 00000000 00000000

If your network requires more network ID’s, you can extend the default subnet mask to include additional bits from the host ID. This allows for additional network ID’s within the network. The table below shows some examples of subnet masks and bits moved from the hosts ID to create a new subnet.
