8.Click [OK] in the “Port #” and the “Property” dialog boxes to go back to the “Moxa Smartio/Industio Configuration Panel” dialog box.

Note ! If you need to install more than one board, click [Add] and repeat steps 6 to 8 to configure another board. Up to four Industio CP-114 Series boards can be installed in a system.

Click [OK] to finish the configuration.

9.When configuration is done, click on [Close] button in the “Network Settings” dialog box.

10.Restart Windows NT system. The latest configuration will not take effect unless the system restarts.

Note ! The latest configuration will not take effect unless the system restarts.

11.Once the system restarts, you may check the event log issued by the MOXA driver to see if the ports of the board are initialized successfully.

!Enter the [Administrative] group, click on the [Event Viewer] icon and select [Log] and [System] to check a message similar to “MOXA CP-114, with first serial port COM3, has been enabled” for each configured board.

!If an error message similar to “Cannot find any configured MOXA CP-114 board!” appears, refer to the “Troubleshooting” chapter for solutions.
