3. Using the WiSER 2400 Administration Software

3.1 Overview

This chapter describes the functionality and operations of the WiSER2400 Diagnostic and Configuration administrative software program. The WiSER2400 administrative program is supported on Microsoft Windows® 98(SE), NT, Millennium, 2000, and XP.

To use the administrative program to monitor and configure the WiSER2400, the PC can be connected to the WiSER2400 either directly through the serial port by cable or via a wireless network connection.

A connection selection window will pop up as shown on the right when the administrative program starts.

Once the connection selection is chosen, the administrative program will display an interface as shown in Fig. 10 and Fig. 11 respectively, depending on whether the PC is connected to the WiSER2400 by serial port, or by a

wireless connection.

Warning: The administrative program in serial port connection mode will not work if another RS232 application program is set to use the same COM port. Make sure that no other application is connected with the COM port when starting the administrative program. In Windows, any connection with a COM port is exclusive.
