About this Manual
The “Basic Configuration” user manual contains all the information you need
to start operating the device. It takes you step by step from the first startup
operation through to the basic settings for operation in your environment.
The following thematic sequence has proven itself in practice:
XSet up device access for operation by entering the IP parameters
XCheck the status of the software and update it if necessary
XLoad/store the configuration
XConfigure the ports
XSet up protection from unauthorized access
XOptimize the data transmission with network load control
XSynchronize system time in the network
XFunction diagnosis
The “Installation” user manual contains a device description, safety instruc-
tions, a description of the display, and all the other information that you need
to install the device before you begin with the configuration of the device.
The “Redundancy Configuration” user manual contains all the information
you need to select a suitable redundancy procedure and configure it.
The “Industry Protocols” user manual describes how the device is connected
by means of a communication protocol commonly used in the industry, such
as EtherNet/IP and PROFINET.
The "Web-based Interface" reference manual contains detailed information
on using the Web interface to operate the individual functions of the device.

Release 4.2 07/08
The "Command Line Interface" reference manual contains detailed informa-
tion on using the Command Line Interface to operate the individual functions
of the device.
The Network Management Software HiVision provides you with additional
options for smooth configuration and monitoring:
XEvent logbook.
XConfiguration of „System Location“ and „System Name“.
XConfiguration of the network address range and SNMP parameters.
XSaving the configuration on the device.
XSimultaneous configuration of multiple devices.
XConfiguration of the port display color red for a connection error.

Introduction
Basic Configuration L2P
Release 4.2 07/08 13
Introduction
The device has been developed for practical application in a harsh industrial
environment. Accordingly, the installation process has been kept simple.
Thanks to the selected default settings, you only have to enter a few settings
before starting to operate the device.

Basic Configuration L2P
Release 4.2 07/08 15
1 Access to the user interfaces
The device has three user interfaces, which you can access via different
interfaces:
XSystem monitor via the V.24 interface (out-of-band)
XCommand Line Interface (CLI) via the V.24 connection (out-of-band) and
Telnet (in-band)
XWeb-based interface via Ethernet (in-band).

1.1 System Monitor
Basic Configuration L2P
Release 4.2 07/08
1.1 System Monitor
The system monitor enables you to
Xselect the software to be loaded
Xperform a software update
Xstart the selected software
Xshut down the system monitor
Xdelete the configuration saved and
Xdisplay the boot code information.
Opening the system monitor
Use the terminal cable (see accessories) to connect
– the V.24 socket (RJ11) to
– a terminal or a COM port of a PC with terminal emulation based on
VT100
(for the physical connection, see the "Installation" user manual).
Start the terminal program on the PC and set up a connection with the
device.
When you boot the device, the message
"Press <1> to enter System Monitor 1"
appears on the terminal.

1.2 Command Line Interface
Basic Configuration L2P
Release 4.2 07/08
1.2 Command Line Interface
The Command Line Interface enables you to use all the functions of the
device via a local or remote connection.
The Command Line Interface provides IT specialists with a familiar
environment for configuring IT devices.
The script compatibility of the Command Line Interface enables you, among
other things, to feed multiple devices with the same configuration data.
You will find a detailed description of the Command Line Interface in the
"Command Line Interface" reference manual.
Note: To facilitate making entries, CLI gives you the option of abbreviating
keywords. Type in the beginning of a keyword. When you press the tab key,
CLI completes the keyword.
Opening the Command Line Interface
Connect the device to a terminal or to the COM port of a PC using ter-
minal emulation based on VT100 and press any key (see on page 16
„Opening the system monitor“) or
call up the Command Line Interface via Telnet.
A window for entering the user name appears on the screen.
Up to five users can access the Command Line Interface.
