Getting StartedPing the modulePing is the basic step to see if your PC can reach the board. If it does then all software or driverscan access it from PC.1) First set PC's IP to static that means 192.168.1.21 its incremented one unit more than thedefault module IP of 192.168.1.20, We set PC’s IP in same range as module so PC can pingthe module easily.2) Use the ethernet cable provided with product and connect to PC LAN port3) Power on board4) Go to Start Menu > CMD will start command prompt5) In black command prompt write ping 192.168.1.20 –t6) If you get ping command not found error then start CMD from run as right click run asadministrator7) The –t parameter tells the ping command to keep pinging till cancel(CTRL+C), else it pings 3times only and stops8) When you are able to see response received text it means module is responding to ping andthe IP set in module is working.9) If you get time out message in ping it means that your PC is not in same range as module IPor board is not powered on or board is in config on module. You need to put jumper in configoff mode for ethernet to work.Note: Setting of PC IP to static is only required to ping easily, if you have a router and have set yourethetnet module IP config in same range as router assigned IP address then static IP to PC is notrequiredInstalling Virtual serial port on PC1) Software to install a virtual port on PC connected over IP is provided on CDROM.2) Install software from folder and then do setup of com port.3) Screenshot on how to set the software its named software_config.jpg on cdrom.4) This software will do two thingsa. Connect to remote module as client over TCP and listen to incoming packetsb. If packets arrive over TCP/IP they are directed to PC’s virtual com port created duringsetupc. If some one tries to send data to this PC’s virtual com port then the same data isdirected towards remote TCP/IP of boardd. Basically this software creates a link betweeni. Remote module of ethernetii. Creates virtual COM port on PC to which data transfer can take placeNote: It optional to use this software to create Virtual com port on PC through which other softwarecan access the remote board as a COM port. Instead you can make direct connection through TCPin your software as following page shows.4Sunrom Technologies Your Source for Embedded Systems Visit us at www.sunrom.com
