Low-cost devices usually are equipped with low speed processors and limited memories. In reality, they are neither having capability nor practicality to manage complicated network TCP/IP protocols. EP-132 Series is low cost while providing high performance network solution by converting data stream between network TCP/IP and popular serial port signals. In stead of processing TCP/IP packets directly, devices need only deal with those interface signals, which greatly simplifies the complexity of TCP/IP network in linkage. -

NEUVIDEO Self-Testing After completing the wiring and parameter setting, we should verify if setting correct or not. This chapter will introduce how to use a single computer to test if converter behaves well. The operating system can be Windows 95, 98, ME, xP, 2000. The “Hyper Terminal” utility should be installed on your PC (see Figure 4.1). It can be found in your Windows installation CD. - Page 16 NEUVIDEO Self-Testing Hyper Terminal for TCP/IP WinSock Select “TCP/IP (Winsock)” option at the “Connect using:” field (see Figure 4.3).
