CSE-H25. You can set the IP address and the serial port related items by using ezManager, the supplied configuration utility which allows you to configure your CSE-H25 over the network, or by using AT commands in ATC mode 3.2 Configuring with ezManager...
CSE-H25 User’s Manual Ver. 1.2 ezManager communicates UDP broadcast and its UDP ports are 50005 and 50006. Port number 50005 is for setting and port number 50006 is for debugging. If you use any firewall function, you have to disable the ports.
Data Frame 3.2.4 Matters to be attended to ezManager can be used when you want to change your device‟s environment variables. In case of CSE-H25, two interfaces are supported and those are Ethernet and RS232 port. Using Ethernet Port ...
CSE-H25 User’s Manual Ver. 1.2 IP Address Related Categories Settings via DHCP In the network environment composing DHCP server, settings related to CSE-H25‟s IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and name servers can be automatically designated using DHCP protocol. In order to do so, user must check [Obtain an IP Automatically (DHCP)] category on ezManager.
3.6.1 DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) If the CSE-H25 obtains its IP address, it notices to the service provider. Then the service provider serves DNS service. So, even though user doesn‟t know the CSE-H25‟s IP address, user can connect to the CSE-H25 by the host name (after DNS looking up.) The DDNS service provider that the CSE-H25 supports is only Dyndns (http://www.dyndns.com)
ISP mode. You can download new firmware to CSE-H25 with hotflash program that is a TFTP client through the Ethernet. And you can configure the CSE-H25 in the ISP mode even though you forget its password or you can‟t access the CSE-H25 because the [ezTCP firewall] function is enabled.
Supply power with pressing ISP button or push the button over 1 second, then CSE- H25 operates in the ISP mode. Run hotflash that is supplied by us and input IP address of CSE-H25 and select the firmware with the [FILE] menu. Then, send it with [SEND] button. (Uncheck the [Verify firmware version] option.)
4.3 Checking current status 4.3.1 Telnet login You can log in the CSE-H25 if you enable the [Telnet option] in the [OPTION] tab of the ezManager. Then you can check the network and serial status after logging in the CSE- H25.

Figure 4-5 Checking System Uptime Serial Ports I/O data capture User can monitor the input / output data of CSE-H25‟s serial ports with the “sd” command. The way of using this command is like below. “sd [SPACE] [# of Serial Port] [SPACE] [Interval]”...
4.1.1 Status of the CSE-H25 If the [Status] button is pressed on ezManager, user can monitor the current status of the CSE-H25 with ezManager. If user sets [Refresh Every 1 second] option, the status data will be updated in every second.
UDP port 50006. Then user can get the messages with new window if user presses [Debugging Message] button as followed: Figure 4-9 Debugging Message window This function is very useful when there are any problems when users install the CSE-H25 in the user site. Sollae Systems Co., Ltd.
5 Communication Mode 5.1 Introduction Normal communication mode is suitable for the purpose of using CSE-H25. Normal communication mode can be classified into four modes – T2S, ATC, COD, and U2S – each of which is described in the following table.
[Event Byte] settings. If the [Event Byte] is 0, the data that comes to serial port of CSE-H25 will not be recognized. If it is not 0, the serial data before TCP connection will be temporarily saved to be sent to the host after the connection.
CSE-H25 User’s Manual Ver. 1.2 designated [Data Frame], CSE-H25 will send the saved data. If the [Data Frame] is 0, CSE- H25 will send serial port‟s data immediately. The unit used for the [Data Frame] is 10m seconds, so CSE-H25 rounds down rest of the values.
Data before TCP connection will be handled based on the [Event Byte] settings. If the [Event Byte] is 0, the data that comes to CSE-H25‟s serial port will not be recognized. If it is not 0, the serial data before TCP connection will be temporarily saved to be sent to the host after the connection.
[Timeout] is 1 second. 5.3.4 DNS If users set the host name instead of the IP address on the [Peer Address] box, CSE-H25 query the IP address of the host to its Domain Name Server (DNS). The IP address of DNS can be configured on ezManager.
CSE-H25 User’s Manual Ver. 1.2 In ATC mode, the user can control the CSE-H25 in a similar way to controlling the modem using AT command. In ATC mode, only a TCP connection is possible and both the server and the client can be configured.
Page 35
U2S is a mode that performs UDP communication. In UDP communication, data is sent in block units. Therefore, data that comes through CSE-H25‟s serial port must be classified in block units to send it elsewhere. The block unit classification process is performed as the following.
ATC Mode Overview CSE-H25 can be controlled by AT commands in ATC mode. For example, the peer host IP address can be set by AT+PRIP command and connect to the host by ATD command. Therefore, CSE-H25 communicates several hosts alternatively.
