ProLinx Gateways with Ethernet Ports
Series C ProLinx™ Gateways with Ethernet ports do NOT include the HTML Web Server. The HTML Web Server
must be ordered as an option. This option requires a factory-installed hardware addition. The HTML Web Server now
supports:
8 MB file storage for HTML files and associated graphics files (previously limited to 384K)
32K maximum HTML page size (previously limited to 16K)
To upgrade a previously purchased Series C model:
Contact your ProSoft Technology distributor to order the upgrade and obtain a Returned Mercha ndise Authorization
(RMA) to return the unit to ProSoft Technology.
To Order a ProLinx Plus gateway with the -WEB option:
Add -WEB to the standard ProLinx part number. For example, 5201-MNET-MCM-WEB.

For most applications, the installation and configuration steps described in this
section will work without additional programming. ProSoft Technology strongly
recommends that you complete the steps in this chapter before developing a
custom application.
1.1 ProLinx Reference Guide
The ProLinx Reference Guide on the ProSoft Solutions CD-ROM provides
detailed information on the entire range of ProLinx modules. If you have any
questions that are not answered in the DNPS User Manual, please refer to the
ProLinx Reference Guide.
1.2 Install ProSoft Configuration Builder Software

"PCB_*.
EXE" file and follow the instructions on your screen to install the
ETUPCONFIGURATIONTOOL folder, double-click the
software on your PC. The information represented by the "*" character in the
file name is the PCB version number and, therefore, subject to change as
new versions of PCB are released.
Note: Many of the configuration and maintenance procedures use files and other utilities on the
CD-ROM. You may wish to copy the files from the Utilities folder on the CD-ROM to a convenient
location on your hard drive.
1.2.1 Using the Online Help
Most of the information needed to help you use ProSoft Configuration Builder is
provided in a Help System that is always available whenever you are running
ProSoft Configuration Builder. The Help System does not require an Internet
connection.
To view the help pages, start ProSoft Configuration Builder, open the H
menu, and then choose CONTENTS.
1.3 Using ProSoft Configuration Builder
ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) provides a quick and easy way to manage
gateway configuration files customized to meet your application needs. PCB is
not only a powerful solution for new configuration files, but also allows you to
import information from previously installed (known working) configurations to
new projects.

AI Events with time
Y or N
This parameter determines if the analog input events generated by the module
