SNMP-1000-B1 Startup Manual 3
parameters can only be set through the serial port due to
security reasons.
A setup software utility can be found in the utility CDROM
shipped with the SNMP-1000-B1. It helps you to set up a
number of the SNMP-1000 system managers with same
configuration. You can save current configuration to a file
and copy it to other modules.
Before you can configure your SNMP-1000-B1 module,
you need first install your SNMP-1000-B1 and power it up.
Connect it to a network through its LAN port, or connect
its serial port to your PC using a "null modem" cable with
reversed Tx & Rx signals at one end. This cable is avail-
able from Advantech. (Part number: 1700091801)
When all the cables are well-connected, you can power up
the SNMP-1000-B1. A green LED on the kernel module
indicates that 5V power is supplied to SNMP-1000-B1.
Then it starts a self-testing procedure. It takes around 5
seconds, then it is ready to work.
Configuring through the serial port
The configuration example below if for Windows Hyperter-
minal (Windows95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP).
1. Start Hyperterminal by clicking on "Accessories" pro-
gram group.
2. Enter a name and choose an icon for the connection.
3. In the "Connect using" box, select "Direct to COMx."
Here “x” is the number of COM ports you are using to con-
nect to the SNMP-1000-B1.
4. Set the serial port of your PC to “9600 bps,” “8 data
bits,” “No parity,” and “1 stop bit with no flow control.”
5. Press the "Enter" key on your PC, then the SNMP-
1000-B1 will prompt you to enter administrator user name
and password. The default administrator user name is
"advantech" and password is "admin."
Note: Access through Telnet or serial port is permitted
only with the "Admin User Name" and "Admin
User Password" set in Control Group.
After entering the password, you can access the configu-
ration menu of SNMP-1000-B1.
Communicating through Ethernet
To communicate with SNMP-1000-B1 through Ethernet,
you need a computer with Ethernet and a TCP/IP network
installed. You need to know the IP address of the SNMP-
1000-B1 before you can communicate with it through the
Ethernet. There are four ways to determine the IP
address:
• The default IP address is 172.20.x.x where x.x are the
last four digits of the Ethernet MAC address. The MAC
address is labeled on the kernel module. For example, if
the MAC address is 00 E0 d8 03 15 36 (hexadecimal),
the IP address is then 172.20.21.54.
• You can read the IP address in console mode under
"Agent Configuration".
• You can read the IP address through the LCM display if
your SNMP-1000-B1 is connected to the LCM display
module.
• You can find all SNMP-1000-B1s connected on the
same network by using the setup utility.
Configuration using Telnet
Configuration using Telnet is basically same as using
serial port connection. First, make sure your computer has
a TCP/IP network and a web browser installed. In the
address line type "Telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx." Here
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the SNMP-1000-B1.
Then the SNMP-1000-B1 will prompt you to enter user
name and password.
Configuration using a Web Browser
Using a web browser is the easiest way to configure the
SNMP-1000-B1. Type in the URL "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx."
Here xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the SNMP-
1000-B1. Then the SNMP-1000-B1 will prompt you to
enter user name and password.
Remote access through a phone line
SNMP-1000-B1's command mode can be accessed
remotely through a phone line. The SNMP-1000 -B1 has
to be connected to a phone line through a modem. Your
PC has to be connected to a phone line through a modem
too.
You can use HyperTerminal of the Windows system or
other dialing software tools. Please refer to the user's
manual of your dialing program for the setting details.
