Chapter 4 Installation
This chapter explains how you can make Portbase to communicate. It deals with LAN and serial connection guides for Portbase to operate together with the target serial device.
1. Installing Portbase
Follow the steps below to install Portbase. In most cases, Portbase’s factory default settings should be sufficient for most serial connections; however, some of the configuration settings may have to be changed for your particular installation. Portbase can be wall mounted, set on the desktop, or mounted using the optional DIN rail kit.
1. Before attempting to install Portbase, make sure you have installed and set up your serial equ ipment as described in the documentation that came with the device.
2. Write down the 12-digit MAC (Media Access Code) address printed on the label located on the bo ttom of Portbase. You may need this number in order to configure Portbase.
3. Connect Portbase to your equipment using an RJ-45 serial connector.
4. Plug Portbase power supply adapter into a suitable AC receptacle, and then plug the power supply cable into Portbase. Portbase will run through a sequence of power-up diagnostics for a few seconds.
If Portbase is operating properly, the RDY LED will blink constantly in a regular
pattern. PWR LED should also be on.
If the RDY LED does not blink continuously in a regular pattern, a problem exists. If
this is the case, try powering the unit OFF and then ON again. If the problem persists, refer to the Troubleshooting section in this User Guide.
5. Connect Portbase to your n etwork through a sw itch or hub using a category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet cable. Portbase’s IP address must be configured before a network connection is available. If your network offers DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), Portbase will automatically search for a DHCP server upon power up and obtain an IP address. If your network does not offer DHCP, a static (fixed) IP address must be assigned (see your system administrator for assistance). In most cases, a fixed IP address is preferred because a DHCP server may not always assign the same IP address to Portbase when Portbase is powered ON.

Portbase User Guide
NOTE: The IP address must be within a valid range, unique to your network, and in the same subnet as your PC.
2. Portbase Connection
Follow these steps to connect Portbase to the device and network.
Connection Guide
1) LAN
In order to connect Portbase to network, you need to use RJ45 Ethernet port. I t su ppor ts both 10 Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet connection (auto-sensing). Plug one end of a LAN cable to Portbase and the other end to a hub, switch, or any other network device that can provide you with network access. * If you connect portbase to PC directly, you have to use cross LAN cable.
2) Serial
In order to connect external serial device and Portbase, RJ45 serial cable is required. For pin specifications and further information, please refer to the Chapter 3. Hardware Descriptions.
First-Time Bootup
Portbase will power on and start booting process when DC adapter (5V) is connected . Operation status can be monitored by LED displays. For more information on LED displays, please refer to the Chapter 3. Hardware Descriptions.
An IP address is required to access Portbase's web interface or telnet command-line configuration tool. By factory default, Portbase is assigned a static IP address. After the initial connection, you can either manually assign a different IP address or set Portbase to automatically get an IP address from a DHCP server.
The factory default IP address of Portbase : 192.168.1.71(10.10.1.1)

Portbase User Guide
Portbase’s default IP address is set to 10.10.1.1. In order to connect with this address, you need to change network configurations so that your PC can connect to the IP 10.10.1.1. Please refer to an example below, and note that values doesn’t necessarily have to be identical to the example below.
After modifying the IP address of Portbase, it may lead to difficulties if you do not remember the IP address. To prevent such accidents, Portbase always remembers a factory default address 10.10.1.1

J COM(Win98/ME)
Use the serial ports of Portbase as the COM ports of Windows 98/ME operated PC. (Both the data and the signal line information of the serial port can be controlled.)
J TCP Server
Portbase works as a socket server, waiting for the client connection on the network. Socket number for awaiting connections can be set in ‘Local socket port’ field. All data between the socket and the serial port is transferred untouched after the socket connection is established.
J TCP Client
Portbase acts as a socket client in this mode. It tries to connect to the server IP address and the socket number assigned when a certain server waits for connection on the network. All data between the socket and the serial port is transferred untouched after the socket connection is established.
J TCP Multi-Server
Portbase works as a server, accepting up to 5 simultaneous connections from socket clients. Data transmitted from Portbase is broadcast to each socket client.
J UDP Server
Portbase works as a UDP server, waiting for UDP connection from the client on the network. Socket number for awaiting connections can be set in ‘Local socket port’ field. Once a UDP packet is received to the socket that waits for the connection, the data is transmitted to the serial port. The data input from the serial port is put into UDP packets, which eventually are sent to the client.
J UDP Client
When the data is input to the serial port, UDP packets are sent using the preset IP address and the socket number of the server.
z Local Socket Port (Default: 4001)
Set the socket number for the port. TCP server and UDP server operation mode makes use of this port for awaiting network socket connections.

z Alive Check Time (Defau lt: 0 sec)
When the operation mode is set to TCP Client, TCP Server, TCP Multi-Server, after a certain amount of time passes without any communication after the socket connection between the given serial port and the server is established, automatically disconnect the socket connection. If the value is set to 0, this function is disabled. Va lid from 0 to 32767 seconds.
z MTU (Default: 1 byte)
MTU stands for Maximum Transmission Unit, and this option needs to be set when consecutive data from the given serial port needs to be transmitted to socket at once. If 100 bytes of character string are to be transmitted from the serial device and MTU is set to ‘100’, Portbase waits until the entire 100 bytes are received. After receiving 100 bytes, it transmits this data to the server as a single packet, using the socket. If 200 bytes of character string are to be transmitted from the serial device, Portbase breaks this data into 2 packets of 100 bytes. If MTU is set to ‘1’, however, each byte is transmitted right away in a packet, therefore multiple packets sent to the server. Valid from 1 to 1100.
z Port Login (Default: Disable)

- set serial [ all / 1 / 2 ] mode [com2kxp / com98 / tcp_server / tcp_client / tcp_mserver /
udp_server / udp_client] (Default: com2kxp)
Select the operation protocol, which the serial port would use.
J com2kxp
Use the serial port of Portbase as the COM ports of Windows 2000/XP/2003 operated PC. (Both the data and the signal line information of the serial port can be controlled.)
J com98
Use the serial ports of Portbase as the COM ports of Windows 98/ME operated PC. (Both the data and the signal line information of the serial port can be controlled.)
J tcp_server
Portbase works as a socket server, waiting for the client connection on the network. Socket number for awaiting connections can be set with ‘set serial port’. All data between the socket and the serial port is transferred untouched after the socket connection is established.
J tcp_client
Portbase acts as a socket client in this mode. It tries to connect to the server IP address and the socket number assigned when a certain server waits for connection on the network. All data between the socket and the serial port is transferred untouched after the socket connection is established.
J tcp_mserver
Portbase works as a server, accepting up to 5 simultaneous connections from socket clients. Data transmitted from Portbase is broadcast to each socket client.
J udp_server
Portbase works as a UDP server, waiting for UDP connection from the client on the network. Socket number for awaiting connections can be set with ‘set serial port’ field. Once a UDP packet is received to the socket that waits for the connection, the data is transmitted to the serial port. The data input from the serial port is put into UDP packets, which eventually are sent to the client.
J udp_client
When the data is input to the serial port, UDP packets are sent using the preset IP address

- set serial [ all / 1 / 2 ] alive <0 ~ 32767> (Default: 0 sec)
After a certain amount of time passes without any communication after the socket connection between the given serial port and the server is established, automatically disconnect the socket connection. If the value is set to 0, this function is disabled. (Only applies to TCP Client, TCP Server, TCP Multi-Server operation modes.)
- set serial [ all / 1 / 2 ] mtu <1 ~ 1100> (Default: 1 byte) MTU stands for Maximum Transmission Unit, and this option needs to be set when
consecutive data from the given serial port needs to be transmitted to socket at once. If 100 bytes of character string are to be transmitted from the serial device and MTU is set to ‘100’, Portbase waits until the entire 100 bytes are received. After receiving 100 bytes, it transmits this data to the server as a single packet, using the socket. If 200 bytes of character string are to be transmitted from the serial device, Portbase breaks this data into 2 packets of 100 bytes. If MTU is set to ‘1’, however, each byte is transmitted right away in a packet, therefore multiple packets sent to the server.

Chapter 7 Appendix
1. Troubleshooting
This section describes procedures for troublesh ooting problems you may encounter with Por tbase, and is divided into the following sections:
z Installation Problems z Configuration Problems z Intermittent Problems z Protocol-Specific Problems
Troubleshooting Installation Problems
If you cannot access the connected serial device via Portbase, first check the network connection and cabling.
z Check the physical cabling to ensure all cables are plugged in (Ethernet and DB-9 serial cable). z If the appropriate LEDs are not illuminated, then there is probably a bad 10baseT or 100baseTX
cable, or the hub port is bad. If possible, try a different cable and hub port, or try connecting a different device to the cab l e.
z Verify that you are using the correct values for both IP Address and Port Number. z If you are using a hub, verify that the hub port is operating correctly by trying Portbase on a
different port.
Troubleshooting Network Configuration Problems
z If you are using TCP/IP, make sure that your computer and Portba se are on the same IP segment
or can reach each other with a PING command from the host. The IP address you assign to Portbase must be on the same logical network as your host computers (e.g., if your computer has an IP address of 192.189.207.3 and the subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, Portbase should have an IP address of 192.189.207.x, where x is an integer between 1 and 254), or you must properly configure your router address to work with Portbase.
z If your Device Server is set to Auto or DHCP for obtaining an IP Address, it is possible that

Portbase User Guide
Portbase’s IP address can change. Either configure your DHCP server to give Portbase a permanent lease, or configure Portbase to be on a STATIC IP address outside the scope of the DHCP addresses.
z The problem may be the result of mismatched or duplicate IP addresses. Verify that the IP
address is correctly loaded into Portbase (via the displayed or printed configu ration information or through the remote console), and make sure that no other nodes on the network have this address (duplicate addresses are the biggest cause of TCP/IP con nectivity problems). If the IP address is not correct, then check whether the loading procedure was properly executed.
z Also verify that the host computer and Portbase are using the same subnet masks(for example, if
Portbase has a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the host must have the same subnet mask) or that the router is properly configured to pass data between the two devices.
z If the wrong IP address is loaded, check your network for DHCP server, and make sure that the
server is not set up to load wrong IP addresses into Portbase.
Troubleshooting Windows Problems
z If you are having trouble accessing the connected serial device through Windows, ensure you
can ping Portbase using the command PING x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of Portbase. If you cannot ping Portbase, you will not be able to access the serial device.
z If you are running COM port redirector and the software reports an error, verify that the correct
virtual COM port is being used when the application runs. Verify that your application’s COM port settings have been changed to use the virtual COM ports.
