Mounting and wiring
MounttheAKC55-MPM piggybackpower supply
boardboard atthe toprighthand corner ofthe
AKC55PS board (often called the “PS/COMM
board”)atpositionJ13,whichisa3-positionterminal
striplabeled ModemPwr.
1. Mount the LantronixUDS-10device server on a flat
surface
2. From the upperright handcorner ofthe PS/COMM
board,remove the #6nut with itsattached starlock
washer.Loosenthe three screws in theJ13 terminal
stripandslide the metalprongs ofthe MPM board
downbehind the screws (twobehind each).Re-
tightenthe screws.
3. Replace the nut andre-tighten.Thisisanimportant
stepto stabilize the assembly.
4. Plug the white male Molex-type connectorofthe
powercord into theconnector atthebottom of
MPMboard. Orient theconnector sothat theclip is
atthetop.(The top pinis negative; the bottompin is
positive.)
5. Plug the roundend ofthepower cord intothe UDS-
10at the locationlabeled 9-30vdc.
6. Identify the twopartsof the 95-05RS232
(COMM8)communicationcable:
a. Aten-foot (3m) flat, gray, 8-conductorcable
with an RJ-45 connector on one end and a 26-
pinkeyedconnector on theother.
b. An RJ-45 adapterthat fits the 25-pinfemale
connector labeled Serialon theUDS-10.
Notethat only sevenpins areused (ofa
possible25).
7. Plug the RJ-45connector into theadapter and insert
the adapter intothe connector labeled Serialon the
UDS-10.
8. Insert the 26-pinkeyed connectorinto thecorre-
spondingsocket at J8near thetop leftcorner ofthe
AKC55PS (PS/COMM) board.
Configuration
Whenmouuntingandwiringiscomplete,boththe
deviceserverand theAKC 55must beconfigured.
Device server configuration
1. Attach the UDS-10device serverto your
computer’sserialportusing a serial cable (and
appropriateadaptersif needed) from theconnector
labeled Serialon the UDS-10 to a serial port on
yourPC.
2. RunWindowsHyperTerminaloranotherterminal
programtoestablishcommunicationsbetweenyour
PCandthedeviceserver.TheUDS-10originally
comesconfigured for9600 baud,8 data bits,1 stop
bit,andnoparity.Youmay need tochangefrom
9600 to other speeds to get readable text on your
screen.
3. ToentertheSetup/configurationmode,removeand
restorepowertothedeviceserverwhileholding
downthe lowercasex keyonyour PC.
4. Confirm that the deviceserverisinsetupmode by
pressingtheENTERkey.Ifnecessary,repeatstep 3.
5. Select 0 (Server configuration)fromtheChange
SetupMenu. Enter:
IPaddress nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Gatewayaddress nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Netmask:numberofbitsforhost 8
Changetelnet configpassword N
Thenumbersrepresentedabove by nnn, etc.,should
beobtainedformyour IT support department.
To enable DHCP, set IPaddress to 0.0.0.0
To enable BOOTP, set IPaddress to 0.0.2.0
