Connecting The Terminals to TCMS V2
DETERMINING TERMINAL NUMBER
Identify the number of your terminal to differentiate between one another. One TCMS
V2 can connect to 999 terminals. Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Dev Num >
Select the number.
USING TCP/IP
Determining the IP Address: IP address is important, as it is a unique address of the
terminal in a LAN. Without the IP address, locating the specific terminal is not possible.
To input the IP address of the terminal: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > IP Addr > Key in IP
address.
Setting up Ethernet: It is important to setup the Ethernet to connect the terminals us-
ing TCP/IP connection.
Setting up Ethernet by enabling the Ethernet function:
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Ethernet > Yes. Turn
off the terminal after you have set the Ethernet to Yes. Now,
plug the network plug to the Ethernet interface and turn the power on.

mask, gateway and netspeed for the terminal.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetMask > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Gateway > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetSpeed > Choose the speed of your Ethernet connection
USING RS232
For connection via RS232, the baud rate is the determinant of communication speed be-
tween the terminal and the software. The higher the baudrate, the faster the speed is.
To turn on RS232 connection and set the baud rate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > RS232
> Change the RS232 connection to Y. To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt >
Baudrate > Change the Baudrate accordingly.
USING RS485
For connection via RS485, the baudrate is also the determinant of communication
speed between the terminal and the software but the speed must be according to the
speed of the converter. Check your converter for the speed.
To turn on RS485 connection and set the baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > RS232
> Change the RS485 connection to Y . To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt >
Baudrate > Change the Baudrate accordingly.
Using USB to Download/Upload Data
