CHAPTER 3 TCP/IP Configuration and Virtual Serial Ports (VSPs) Introduction Overview This chapter describes how to configure your HDCC card for use on a TCP/IP network and how to install virtual serial ports (VSPs) to communicate with you HDCC card. N ot e : Unless there is a need to access the terminal with a virtual serial port, this chapter may be skipped.
The default IP address can be set by SW1. See the previous chapter Assigning a Static IP Address/Enabling DHCP Double-clicking on the Wohler Serial-Ethernet Bridge (see Figure 3–2 above) will open a web browser and take you the card’s configuration page where you can set a static IP address, if desired.

C h a p t e r 6 Te r m in a l B a ck g r ou n d Background The HDCC card’s operation is governed by several registers. These registers are modified automatically when you use the DashBoard. However, more advanced users may prefer to configure these registers manually.
Note: If you’re using the Wohler MC-1RU frame, you can access the Terminal with the same serial port you use to connect to the HDCCRegEdit. (HDCCRegEdit is really a user interface that uses the Terminal.)
