Connecting the Serial / Console Port

The IOLAN can be fully configured and managed from the console port. The IOLAN is set in the factory to serial (up position). Unless you plan to attach a console to the IOLAN, leave the dip switch in the serial position. If this DIP switch is set to the down position, then the serial port is in console mode. In console mode, the port provides access to the IOLAN management function using the industry standard CLI command set. See the IOLAN Command Line Interface Reference Guide.

Console Port Mode

Depending on the model, the console port will be a DB9M connector, a RJ45 connector or a DB25 connector. See Appendix D - Cabling and Connectors for information on cabling requirements.

1. Power off the IOLAN and set the console switch to the down position.
2. Connect the power and allow the IOLAN to complete the boot up sequence.
3. Depending on your IOLAN model, connect an DB9, RJ45 or DB25 cable directly from the IOLAN to the COM port on your PC.
4. Choose Start > Control Panel > Systems or equivalent on the Windows Operating System you are using.
5. Click the Hardware tab and choose Device Manager, Expand the Ports (COM & LPT) section. This will expand the drop down to show the number of com ports on your system. Connect the cable to one of these ports (probably COM1 or COM2).
6. Start an terminal-emulation program (such as Putty or SecureCRT) on the COM port where you have connected the cable PC.
7. Configure this COM port within the terminal emulation program with the following parameters:

• 9600 baud
- 8 data bits
- 1 stop bit
- No parity
- None (flow control)

1. Connect power to the unit as described in Connecting Power to the IOLAN.

2. The PC will display the loot-loader sequence

Serial Port Mode

Serial mode is used when the IOLAN acts as a communication sever, or anytime you are not connecting directly to the IOLAN to configure it. You can connect directly to the IOLAN in serial mode, but the IOLAN will not display all the messages/information you will get in Console mode. See the IOLAN User's Guide for more information on the serial port.

Rebooting/Resetting the IOLAN

To reset the IOLAN insert a paper clip into the reset hole, then gently press inwards. If the button is released quickly the IOLAN will reboot, if the button is pressed for more then three seconds the IOLAN will be returned to factory defaults.

Connecting Data Ports

Ethernet Connection

By default the 10/100/1000 Ethernet port will automatically set itself up to match the speed of the port it is connected to. If auto negotiation is not supported by that port then, the port can be configured to operate at a fixed speed and duplex settings.

To connect to 10Base-T, 100Base-TX or 1000Base-T follow these steps:

1. Connect a straight through Ethernet cable from the IOLAN's Ethernet port to an 10/100/1000 RJ45 port on the network hub/switch.
2. Once the IOLAN is connected and the link is established, the link LEDs will turn on. These LEDs will indicate whether you have a 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps link to your hub/ switch. See. (LED Indicators) for more details.

Hardware Options

The IOLAN contains jumpers that you might need to set before you configure it and put it into production. You can set the Power Out pin, pin 10 to a fixed 5V DC output or to the external adapter output; this can range from 9-30V DC (if an external adapter is shipped with the IOLAN, it has a 12V DC output); maximum output power is 1 (one) watt per serial port. The Power Out pin is only supported on the SDS1 G/SDS1T Gmodel The serial port can also operate in either EIA 232, 422 or 485 mode. This is a software configuration (See the IOLAN User's Guide for information on setting this parameter). If EIA 422 or 485 is selected, the line termination may need to be set. Termination is not necessary unless the IOLAN's are the end points.

To change the hardware settings, do the following:

1. Unplug the IOLAN from the electrical outlet and disconnect everything from the unit.
2. Open the case by unscrewing the two side screws, one on each side, and lifting off the top of the case.
