8. Diagnostics

There are several ways that you can check on the status and availability of the LES301A.

8.1 Use the Standard TCP/IP Utility Ping Command

From Windows “Start” menu, select “Run” and type in “ping <TCP Server IP address>.”

If the connection is established, the Reply messages are displayed; otherwise it will indicate that the request timed out.

Figure 8-1. Standard TCP/IP utility ping command.

8.2 Use the SerialManager Configuration Utility Program

Use the SerialManager configuration program that’s included on the product CD or diskette to check on the status of the LES301A. You can read the status and version from the tool.

For example, “S” means that COM1 is the server mode and it is not connected.

8.3 Use TCPTEST.exe or TCPTEST2.exe Sample Program

Use sample programs TCPTEST.exe and TCPTEST2.exe that are included on the product CD to check on the status of LES301A. Refer to Section 7.2 to run the sample programs.
