NOTES, WARNINGS and CAUTIONS Information that is especially important to note is identified by the following labels: ARNING or CAUTION NOTE: Provides you with information that is important to successfully setup and use the iServer. CAUTION: Tells you about the risk of electrical shock. CAUTION: Risk of danger.
PART 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Safety and EMC Considerations Refer to the CE Approvals Section. EMC Considerations Whenever EMC is an issue, always use shielded cables. Never run signal and power wires in the same conduit. Use twisted-pair wires for signal connections. Install Ferrite Bead(s) on signal wires close to the instrument if EMC problems persist.

1.3 Description (continued) Back-up Battery. The iServer comes with a universal 100 to 240 Vac power adapter. A standard 9 Volt Alkaline battery (also included) allows the device to continue recording data for 60 hours (at one minute interval setting) without external ac power (such as a power outage).
1.3 Description (continued) Award-winning Technology. The iServer is simple to install and use. It features award winning technology that requires no special software except a Web browser. The iServer connects to an Ethernet Network with a standard RJ45 connector and sends data in standard TCP/IP packets.
PART 2 HARDWARE 2.1 Dimensions 12.7 [0.50 ] If unit is to be mounted on a flat 82.6 [3.25] surface, you may 19.1 [0.75] take the bottom rubber feet off the unit. 61.6 [2.42] Dimensions are in mm with inches in [ ]. 3.0 [0.12] 36.6 [1.44] 2.54 [0.10]...
2.2 Wall Mounting Position unit where required. Mark and drill the two #4 screw holes. After bracket is mounted on the wall, align back of unit over the three bracket clips, once engaged, slide downward, the unit will snap in place. 61.6 [2.42] 11.7 [0.46 ] 38.1 [1.50]...
2.3 Parts of the iServer Unit The 9V battery is the back-up power for the recording function only. Figure 2.3 Parts of the iServer Unit Table 2.1 Parts of iServer Unit ETHERNET RJ45 interface for 10/100BASE-T connection. RESET Button: Momentary (Push and Release) resets power on unit; Push and Hold for 10 seconds to reset unit to factory defaults and reset power.
2.3 Parts of the iServer Unit (continued) STBY Button: 1) Stops the recording 2) Press before ejecting Flash Card. NOTE: display will show “Safe to Eject SD” after button has been pressed. BKLT Button: Push and Hold to display Backlight on LCD when it is running on the back-up battery (backlight is always on while running on the ac adapter).
2.5 Network Communication Interfaces 2.5.1 10/100 BASE-T RJ-45 Pinout The 10/100BASE-T Ethernet network Name Description system is used in the iServer for +Transmit Data network connectivity. The 10 Mbps - Tx -Transmit Data or 100 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet +Receive Data system operates over two pairs of Not Connected wires.
PART 3 NETWORK CONFIGURATION 3.1 Network Protocols The iServer can be connected to an Ethernet network communicating through standard IP protocols including TCP, UDP, SNMP, SMTP, ARP, HTTP (WEB access), DNS, DHCP, ICMP, SNTP, and Telnet. 3.2 Ethernet (MAC) Address MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique hardware number for Ethernet devices like computers, network switches, print servers, etc.
3.3 DHCP DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, enables computers and network devices to receive their IP configurations from a DHCP server. If DHCP is enabled on your iServer, as soon as the iServer that is connected to the network is powered on, there will be an exchange of information between the iServer and the DHCP server.
3.6 Port Number All TCP connections are defined by the IP address and a port number. A port number is an internal address that provides a TCP/IP interface between an application software on a computer and a device on the network or between two devices on the network. There are two default TCP port (socket) numbers assigned to the iServer: 1) Port 2000: Once a TCP connection is made to the iServer using port 2000 or any port number that is configured on the iServer for Local Port (see Network menu,...
4.1.2 ARP HTTPget Commands (Method 2) (continued) The above IP address of 128.100.101.76 is an example to show how these commands work. To get a valid IP address on your network you need to consult with your IT department. Figure 4.1 shows the screen shot of an actual DOS window with the above commands executed.
4.1.3 Direct Connection (Method 3) (continued) After connecting the Ethernet Cable iServer to computer, power it on.

Press “Properties” button OK and also on all other remaining windows.
4.1.3 Direct Connection (Method 3) (continued) To verify a good connection to the iServer, from a DOS prompt on your computer type “ping 192.168.1.200” and press Enter. You should get a reply as shown in Figure 4.7. If you don’t receive a reply it means that you do not have a network connection between your PC and the iServer.
4.1.4 iConnect Software (Method 4) The iServer can be assigned an IP Address by using the iConnect software. Download the iConnect software from the website listed on the cover of this manual (software section). Install iConnect software on a networked PC. This software is compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, and XP.

Appendix A GLOSSARY User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long.
Page 64
Appendix B IP Address An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes: A network ID number identifying a network. A host ID number identifying a computer on the network. All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits of host ID.
Appendix C ARP Commands ARP is the Internet layer protocol responsible for matching or obtaining the MAC (hardware) address that corresponds to a particular IP address. The ARP command allows the user to view the current contents of the ARP cache of the local computer (residing on the same network).
Appendix D IP Netmask IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID.
Appendix F iLog Error Messages Table F-1 iLog Error Messages Error # Description Note -8003 User stopped logging readings. -10005 Failed to find the iServer. Ethernet cable is disconnected, iServer is powered off, connections across the firewall require longer “connection to socket time out” setting.
Appendix G Java Runtime Environment Setup If your computer does not have Java installed, please download from http://java.sun.com. You can change the Java setting by clicking its icon in Control Panel. To load the applet, you have to enable the web browser and disable cache. G.1 Java Runtime Environment 1.7 Setup instructions 1.
G.2 Browser Proxy Selection Accessing iServer within your internal network Usually when the computer and iServers are on an internal network, you will not use Proxy server access. You should un-check the “Use Browser Settings” option on the “Proxy” tab. Accessing iServers units using the internet Often the web browser will use Proxy server access to the internet.
