1. Power the device.
2. Connect the top RJ45 to a network drop using a standard
network cable. (RJ45 ports on the model shown are
interchangeable. One may be used for pass-through Ethernet.)
3. Connect the Serial Device(s). RS-232 with DB9: straight-through
for DCE device. Null modem for DTE device. RS-422/485 with
terminal blocks.
1. Use included CD to install Vlinx™Modbus Gateway Manager. If
Autorun does not start, go to “My Computer” and select the CD
drive. You will see a Vlinx MESR icon. Double-click it to launch
the installation.
2. To open Vlinx Modbus Gateway Manager, click:
Start\Programs\B&B Electronics\Vlinx\Vlinx Modbus Gateway Manager
Note: If the device does not connect, cycle (unplug-replug) power, then try again.
3. To congure via the network, select Network.
4. If you know the IP address, select “The device is at this
address,” and type in the IP address. If not, select “I don’t know
the IP address of the device.” Click Connect.
Alternate Method: Open a web browser and type the IP address of the Gateway
in the Address Bar. When the Gateway is found, the Login window will appear.
5. Click Login. Password is blank from factory. No password is
necessary to operate the MESR unit. The Conguration/General
page appears.
Installation & Setup

“I want DHCP” is preselected to set up the network using dynamic
IP addressing. The gateway is set up at the factory to receive an
IP assignment from a DHCP Server.
1. If a DHCP Server is not available on your network, it will default
to 169.254.102.39.
2. If a DHCP server is not available and the default address does
not work on your PC, change your PC network settings to IP
Address: 169.254.102.1, Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0, Default
Gateway: 169.254.1.1.
If you are not able to use these settings, refer to the user manual
for directions to change the Gateway’s TCP/IP settings.

RS-485 (4-wire).
3. Set the Baud Rate to control the speed of the port. Valid rates
range between 75 and 230.4k bits per second.
4. Set the Data Bits to control the number of bits in each character.
Only 8 bits is valid when the protocol of the device connected to
the port is RTU.
