Resetting Configuration Parameters

For example:

term=AT386 at386 386AT 386at at/386 console acsc=jYk?lZm@qDtCu4x3

bold=\E[1m

civis=

clear=\E[2J\E[H

cnorm=

cup=\E[%i%p1%02d;%p2%02dH

rev=\E4A

rmacs=\E[10m

rmso=\E[m

smacs=\E[12m

smso=\E[7m

page=

circ=n

Note: As you can see from the example, capabilities which are not defined in the terminfo file must still be included (albeit with no value). Each entry has an 80 character limit.

On some versions of UNIX, some of the capabilities are appended with a millisecond delay (of the form $<n>). These are ignored by the IOLAN and can be left out.

The ‘acsc’ capability, if defined, contains a list of character pairs. These pairs map the characters used by the terminal for graphics characters to those of the standard (VT100) character set.

Include only the following character pairs:

jx, kx, lx, mx, qx, tx, ux and xx

(where x must be substituted by the character used by the terminal). These are the box-drawing characters used to display the forms and menus of Menu mode. They must be entered in this order.

The last two capabilities will not be found in the terminfo file. In the page field you must enter the escape sequence used by the terminal to change screens. The circ field defines whether the terminal can use previous page and next page control sequences. It must be set to y or n. These capabilities can be found in the documentation supplied with the terminal.

Resetting Configuration Parameters

You can reset the IOLAN to its factory settings through any of the following methods:

zYou can push in the recessed button at the back of the IOLAN hardware for more than three seconds (pushing it in and then quickly releasing will just reboot the IOLAN)

zDeviceManager, select Tools, Reset, Reset to Factory Defaults

zCLI, at the command line type, reset factory

zWebManager, select Administration, Reboot Unit, and then click the Reboot button

zMenu, select Network Configuration, Reset to Factory Defaults

zSNMP, in the adminInfo folder, Set the adminFunction variable to 2

This capability is invaluable for applications requiring real-time data transmission, such as remote monitoring and automated control systems. The DS1 model, on the other hand, is designed for single-port use, making it an ideal solution for smaller-scale operations or specific single-device connections.

Both the TS2 and DS1 incorporate advanced features such as configuration through a web interface, which simplifies setup and management. Users can easily access device settings and monitor performance metrics remotely, enhancing operational efficiency. These devices also support various network protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, and ICMP, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network architectures.

In terms of security, Perle Systems prioritize user data protection. The TS2 and DS1 offer features including SSL encryption and SSH protection, providing an added layer of security for sensitive information transmitted over the network. This is particularly important for industries where data integrity and security are paramount, such as healthcare and finance.

Additionally, the rugged design of both devices ensures reliable performance even in harsh environments. With extended temperature ratings and robust housing, the TS2 and DS1 can operate in diverse conditions without compromising functionality.

To summarize, the Perle Systems TS2 and DS1 provide a reliable and flexible solution for connecting legacy serial devices to modern networks. With their support for multiple serial protocols, web-based management, robust security features, and rugged design, these devices cater to a variety of industries looking to modernize their communication infrastructure while maintaining existing equipment. Whether for large-scale operations or smaller implementations, the TS2 and DS1 equip businesses with the tools needed for effective serial communication in an IP-driven world.
