Configuring NPort Administrator

COM Mapping

Windows Administration Suite comes with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP Real COM drivers. After you install NPort 5400 Administration Suite, there are two ways to set up the NPort 5400 serial port as your host’s remote COM port.

The first way is with On-line COM Mapping. On-line COM Mapping will check to make sure that the NPort 5400 is connected correctly to the network, and then install the driver on the host computer.

The second way is with Off-line COM Installation, without first connecting the NPort 5400 to the network. Off-line COM Mapping can decrease the system integrator’s effort by solving different field problems. Via off-line installation, users can first process software installation for the host, and then install the NPort 5400 to different fields.

Use the following procedure to map COM ports:

1.On-line COM Mapping:

Connect the NPort 5400 to the network Æ Set the NPort 5400 to the proper IP address Æ Map COMs to your host Æ Apply Change.

2.Off-line COM Mapping:

Map COMs to your host Æ Apply Change Æ Connect the NPort 5400 to the network Æ Configure the NPort 5400’s IP address.

On-line COM Mapping

1.Broadcast Search for NPort 5400s on the network.

2.Select the COM Mapping function group.
