Controller Update

Once you have entered the necessary parameters, press the Update button. NETRS2321E will save all parameters in internal non-volatile memory and then reboot. It will take roughly 5 or 10 seconds to complete the whole process following which a new login page will be presented, indicating that the Controller has been updated and that NETRS2321E is restarting.

You can re-login and check if all parameters have been correctly saved. Once you have confirmed accuracy, you can close the browser.

NOTE: If the domain under which NETRS2321E is operating is different from that of the computer running the browser, the login page won’t appear unless the NETRS2321E Gateway Address has correctly been set.

Virtual COM Port

The virtual COM port software, VSerPortConsole, is used to map a NETRS2321E unit on the network, to a COM port on the local computer system. The computer will treat the COM port as a regular serial port that is directly on the computer system. To use the virtual COM port feature:

1.Ensure that the NETRS2321E unit has already been configured properly, and is accessible on the network.

2.Copy the virtual COM port software onto the computer’s hard drive from the CD, if not already and run the software. Make sure to only run the version appropriate for your operating system.

NOTE: The latest version of the virtual COM port software can be downloaded from www.startech.com
