Console Port
The console port is an RJ45 RS-232 port. It is designed for serial
console, and can be connected to a V90 or GPRS modem via PPP. The
pin definitions are the same as for the eight serial ports (P1 to P8).
Reset to Default Button
Press the “Reset to Default” button continuously for at least 5 seconds
to load the factory default configuration. After the factory default
configuration has been loaded, the system will reboot automatically.
The Ready LED will blink on and off for the first 5 seconds, and then
maintain a steady glow once the system has rebooted.
Reset Button
Press the “Reset” button to activate the hardware reset function. You
should only use this function if the software does not function properly.
To reset a system, you should reboot the operating system to avoid
deleting important data.
USB
The USB 1.1 Client port is reserved for future enhancement.
Real Time Clock
UC-7408’s real time clock is powered by a lithium battery. We strongly
recommend that you do not replace the lithium battery without help
from a qualified MOXA support engineer. If you need to change the
battery, contact the Moxa RMA service team.
ATTENTION
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
6. Powering on UC-7408
To power on UC-7408, connect the “terminal block to power jack
converter” to the UC-7408’s DC terminal block (located on the left
back panel), and then connect the power adaptor. Note that the Shielded
Ground wire should be connected to the right most pin of the terminal
block. It takes about 30 seconds for the system to boot up. Once the
system is ready, the Ready LED will light up, and UC-7408’s network
settings will appear on the LCM display.
7. Connecting UC-7408 to a PC
There are two ways to connect UC-7408 to a PC, through the serial
console port or by Telnet over the network. The COM settings for the
serial console port are: Baudrate = 115200 bps, Parity = None, Data
bits = 8, Stop bits = 1, Flow Control = None.
ATTENTION
Remember to choose the “VT100” terminal type. Use the
CBL-RJ45F9-150 cable included with the product to connect a PC to
UC-7408’s serial console.
To use Telnet you will need to know UC-7408’s IP address and
netmask. The default LAN settings are shown below. For first-time
configuration, you may find it convenient to use a cross-over Ethernet
cable to connect the PC directly to the UC-7408.
Default IPAddress Netmask
LAN 1 192.168.3.127 255.255.255.0
LAN 2 192.168.4.127 255.255.255.0
Once the UC-7408 is powered on, the Ready LED will light up, and a
login page will open. Use the following default Login name and
Password to proceed.
Login: admin
Password: admin
8. Configuring the Network Setting
Normally, you are required to change the IP address of UC-7400-CE
because it is located in a different local network from that of your
development workstation. Use the netconfig utility to complete the task.
Before using this utility, type netconfig -h to examine the usage of the
command.
\> netconfig –h
Usage: netconfig –n <“LAN1” or “LAN2”> [-m <netmask>] [-d
<DNS server>] [-g <gateway>] [-i <IP address>]
For example, your development workstation has a LAN port at
192.168.1.x and the Domain Name Server (DNS) is at 192.168.2.6.
Execute the following command.
\> netconfig –n LAN1 –i 192.168.1.5 –m 255.255.255.0 –g
192.168.1.254 –d 192.168.2.6
Type netconfig to view the new settings.
\> netconfig
LAN1 Interface Configuration:
IP Address: 192.168.1.5
SubNet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.254
DNS: 192.168.2.6
LAN2 Interface Configuration:
IP Address: 192.168.4.127
SubNet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway:
DNS:
