Front Rs-232 Port - Pc Setup; Logging In - Ametek UPLC-II System Manual

5.4.1.3 PC Setup – Ethernet Connection via
Router/Switch
The IP address of the UPLC-II™ must match the
subnet of the Ethernet network (LAN) which usual-
ly means changing the IP address of the UPLC-II™
from its default, as explained previously. Also you
must change your computer's IP address which is
dependent on the type of computer operating sys-
tem being used. See Appendix B.
5.4.2 Front RS-232 Port – PC Setup
The UPLC-II™ front panel is a DCE serial port.
Since most computer serial ports are DTE devices,
a standard straight through serial cable may be used
to connect the UPLC-II™ to a computer via the
serial port. If the device you are connecting to is a
DCE device, use a null modem cable.
Connecting your computer to the UPLC-II™
1. After initially powering up the unit, wait
approx. 1 min. prior to accessing the unit.
2. Connect a straight-thru serial cable between
your computer serial port and the front serial
port on the UPLC-II™.
3. Either double click the connection icon you
placed on your desktop from the configura-
tion procedure in Appendix A or double click
the "My Computer" icon on your desktop.
4. Under My Computer double click on "My
Network Places" icon and then double click
on "view network connections."
5. Then double click on the direct connection
you set up from the procedure in Appendix A
to talk to the UPLC-II™.
6. The connection window will pop up. Leave
the user name and password blank. Click on
the "Connect" button.
7. You may see a dialog box pop up that says
"dialing..." and this is ok. Then you will see
"Verifying username and password....."
After that you will see "Registering your
computer on the network..." The dialog box
will go away and you will get confirmation
that you are connected. Should you get a 777
error after "dialing", close the window and
restart the direct connection. Do not "redial".

ly return you to the UPLC-II™ home page.
