2.4 Installation
2.4.1 Configuration Utility
In order to use a PC and an Ethernet network to control serial devices
connected to the EDG-4508(R)+ and EDG-4516(R)+, you must first have
a host running Windows NT/2000/XP. This type of application also
requires the host to have an Ethernet card and the TCP/IP protocol
installed. The following are the required steps for EDG-4508(R)+ and
EDG-4516(R)+.
1. Insert the Advantech industrial communication CD-ROM into the
drive (e.g. D:\) on the host PC. Change the host computer's default drive
from C: to D:
2. Use your Windows Explorer or the Windows Run command to execute
the Setup program (the path for the Setup program on the CD-ROM if
your default CD drive is D: should be):
D:\Device Server(EDG)\Utility&Driver\EDG COMPort Configuration
Utility\V2.xx\98_NT_2000_XP v2.00 b014
3. Upon executing the setup program, the Welcome Dialog Box will pop-
up. Press the "Next" button to continue.
