connector to the next IRIG device in the IRIG loop if you are cascading IRIG to other devices.

5.Select a Control Method — either via an RS-232 serial connection or via an Ethernet connection:

~Serial Control — To control DGy 201 using a terminal emulation program (such as Hyperterminal or Procomm), connect the COM port of your computer (or other terminal control device) to the DGy 201 RS-232 Port. This enables you to control the DGy 201 using ASCII commands. For information on DGy 201 commands refer to the Command Line Interface chapter (page 86).

~A straight through cable (typically 9-pin male to female with one-to-one wiring) is required. For information on RS-232 connection parameters refer to the RS-232 Connector” section in Appendix A (page 137).

~Launch Hyperterminal or other terminal emulator software and set the communication parameters to:

115,200 Baud

8 Bits

1 Stop Bit

No Parity

XON/XOFF Flow Control

~For information on setting up a Hyperterminal see Appendix B, “Launching a Hyperterminal Window” (page 139).

~Ethernet Control — To control the DGy 201 over a network, connect an Ethernet cable (from your LAN, Ethernet hub or switch) to the DGy 201’s 10/100 Base-T Ethernet Port. This method allows you to use a Telnet session or a standard web browser to access DGy

201’s internal Web Control Panel (GUI). Ethernet is also ideal for controlling multiple DGy 201 devices.

Note

A PC can be connected directly to the DGy 201’s

 

Ethernet Port, without being connected to a network.

 

For this “direct connect” method, use an inexpensive

 

Ethernet hub or an Ethernet crossover cable. In

 

Appendix A, refer to the “Ethernet Connector

 

section ( page 136 ) for pinout details.
