Download adddress：http://www.hi-flying.com/index.php?route=download/category&path=1_4
Decompress file and find executable program, then open. Click quick start button to create
connection.
2.2. Configure Serial Parameter
Protocol：Serial
Port: Actual connection port(search by “My PC”->”Device Manager”->”Port(COM and LPT)”. As figure:
)

3.TEST EXAMPLE
Elfin-EE1X use TCP/IP protocol for communication. There is two main parameters one for IP address
and another for port number.
3.1. Ethernet Direct Connect Networking
Auto-IP is used for local area when there is no DHCP server exist, devices will use the Class B
169.254 for communication. Connect device Ethernet with PC, the device will use default auto IP(Elfin
series use 169.254.1.1, others use 169.254.173.207). The PC may use this IP to config the device or
transfer data. As the following example
Step 1：Open IOTService and find the device.
3.2. TCP Server Test in Auto IP Mode
Step 1：Open TCP&UDP test tool and generate TCP connection as following steps. Device has
already created a TCP Server (port 8899) for use. TCP&UDP test tool can be downloaded from our
website:
⚫DestIP：IP address of device which can be found by IOTService.
⚫Port：Port of TCP Server which can be found by IOTService or set by users own.

⚫The default socket used by product.
Step 2：Click Connection to generate TCP connection
◼After successful connection, the left turns to be green arrow, yellow if fails.

Step 3：Open serial tool according to following parameters (115200 baud rate as default)
Step 4：Data transmission between TCP and UART is as following.

3.3. Router Networking
Step 1：Elfin-EE1X connect to router LAN and PC also connect to the same router. PC open
IOTService tools and the device will show on the tools.
Can also use this IP to enter the device webpage(default login account is admin/admin)

3.4. TCP Server Test
Step 1：Open TCP&UDP test tool and generate TCP connection as following steps. Device has
already created a TCP Server(port 8899) for use. TCP&UDP test tool can be downloaded from the
website:
◼DestIP：Destination IP address.
◼Port：Destination Port.
Step 2：Click Connect to create TCP connection

◼After successful connection, the left turns to be green arrow.
Step 3：Open serial tool according to following parameters (115200 baud rate as default)
Step 4：Mutual data transmission between TCP and serial port.
