Starting EDS Configurator

To start EDS Configurator, locate and then run the executable file edscfgui.exe.

NOTE	You may download the EDS Configurator software from Moxa’s website at www.moxa.com.

For example, if the file was placed on the Windows desktop, it should appear as follows. Simply double click on the icon to run the program.

The Moxa EtherDevice Server Configurator window will open, as shown below.

Broadcast Search

Use the Broadcast Search utility to search the LAN for all EDS-510A switches that are connected to the LAN. Note that since the search is done by MAC address, Broadcast Search will not be able to locate Moxa EtherDevice Servers connected outside the PC host’s LAN. Start by clicking the

Broadcast Search icon , or by selecting Broadcast Search under the List Server menu.

The Broadcast Search window will open, displaying a list of all switches located on the network, as well as the progress of the search.
