installation and user information

product overview

This driver communicates with the EtherLite-32 and makes the Digi switch’s serial connections appear as though they were direct serial connections to the master system. Thus, the master node communicates with the slave node via a serial port communications program, such as cu on HP-UX or the dinc program supplied with the Digi switch.

Examples for accessing save node #2:

cu -l/dev/ttyn01 -s 9600 /usr/local/bin/dinc /dev/digi/sv2

The Digi EtherLite-32 has its own IP address and is connected to the 10/100 hub. RJ45 ports are connected to serial port 1 of each slave node via an RS-232 adapter.
