To Install the X-CTU Software: Double-click the “setup_X-CTU.exe” file then follow prompts of the installation screens. This file is located in the “software” folder of the MaxStream CD and under the ‘Downloads’ section of the following web page: www.maxstream.net/helpdesk/. Installation #2: Ethernet Com Port Redirector MaxStream provides com port redirection software that creates a com port in the operating system that will forward serial data to the IP address of the Ethernet-connected RF modem. -
Page 9: Setup Com Port & Ip Address
If the Ethernet RF Modem is left in DHCP mode, it may become necessary to reconfigure a mapped com port any time an IP address is re-assigned by the DHCP server. Dynamic addressing is supported, but setting a static IP address can simplify the application. © 2004 MaxStream, Inc., Confidential and Proprietary... -
