Changing the Manager’s Default IP Address
In
order
for
the
MIU-1500
to
communicate
TCP/IP,
it
needs
an
IP
address,
network
mask,
and
possibly
a
gateway
address.
If
you
are
connecting
the
Manager
to
your
LAN,
you
should
change
the
MIU-1500‟s defaults
(IP
address
192.168.1.55;
network
mask
255.255.255.0;
no
gateway
address
and
port
1000).
To
change
the
IP
address
on
the
MIU-1500
go
to
the
"Setup"
link
and
then
click
on
"Communications." There
you
can
enter
a
new
IP
address
for
the
MIU-1500.
Before
you
change
the
IP
address
you
should
ping
the
new
IP
address
to
make
sure
that
no
computers
on
your
network
have
the
IP
address
already.
To
ping,
go
to
the
PC's
"Start"
menu,
choose
"Run"
and
in
the
"Open:"
box
type
"Command."
An
MS-DOS
window
will
appear.
Type
"Ping"
and
the
IP
address
you
are
trying
to
ping.
If
you
want
to
change
your
Manager's
IP
address
to,
say,
192.168.1.213
you
would
type
"Ping
192.168.1.213"
and
wait
for
a
response.
If
the
result
of
the
ping
is
"Request
timed
out"
then
there
is
no
other
device
on
that
IP
address
and
you
can
safely change
the
IP
address
of
the
MIU-1500.
Once
you
know
the
IP
address
you
want,
enter
it
into
the
"IP
Address"
box
on
the
Communications
Setup
screen.
Enter

If
successful,
the
browser
will
redirect
to
the
new
IP
address
and
at
the
bottom
of
the
screen,
in
green
letters,
it
will
say,
"Submission
accepted.
Parameters
updated!"

FTP Scripts
You may need to create scripts in Windows to automatically download files from the MIU-1500. The following
is an example of an ftp script and batch file that you can use for this purpose:
You will need two files to automatically download from the MIU-1500. The first is a batch file and the second is
an ftp script file that will be run by the batch file.
Batch File
ftp –s:download30MinFile.scr 192.168.1.55
The example below shows the command you would use to create a batch file. This command will run a ftp
script file named
download30MinFile.scr
and connect to a MIU-1500 device at 192.168.1.55. Create a new
text file with the contents below and save it as download.bat
FTP Script File
The example below shows the commands you would use to create a ftp script file. This script will login to the
ftp interface of the MIU-1500 and download the RECPERALL.txt file to the current directory. Make sure you
specify the ftp user name and password in the script to connect successfully. To use this with the batch file,
make sure you name the file
download30MinFile.scr.
ftpUser
ftpPassword
get RECPERALL.txt
bye
Running the Batch
You should now have two files, download.bat and download30MinFile.scr. In windows, run the download.bat
file. This will connect to the MIU-1500 and run the ftp script which will download the RECPERALL.txt file. If you
need to schedule this batch, you can do so using Windows Task Scheduler.
MIU-1500 / CompuCount User’s Guide Page 20
Appendix
Common Software Tools
The
interface
to
the
MIU-1500
was
designed
to
meet
common
standards
and
be
easy
to
use.
You
can
use
common
software
that
either
comes
with
your
operating
system
or
can
be
purchased
to
diagnose
common
problems
and
to
communicate
with
the
MIU-1500.
The
primary
means
of
obtaining
the
MIU-1500
reports
is
use
a
Web
Browser
and
you
download
report
files using
an
FTP
client.
The
MIU-1500
has
a
command
/
response
protocol
that
can
be
used
with
serial,
radio
and
TCP/IP
medias. For
TCP/IP
you
send
simple
text
commands
via
port
1000
(default)
and
receive
responses.
The
commands
are used
to
set
up
the
MIU-1500
and
to
diagnose
problems.
You
can
use
a
communication
program
that
has terminal
emulation
to
get
familiar
with
the
MIU-1500
commands
and
communications.
Once
you
are familiar
with
the
commands,
you
can
automate
the
communications
using
common
development
programming languages.
Here
are
some
examples
of
common
software:
Microsoft
Windows
Internet
Explorer
–
used
to
view
the
reports
and
set
up
the
MIU-1500
FTP
–
command
line
utility
that
allows
you
download
the
report
files
Third
party
FTP
Clients
–
commercial
and
shareware
FTP
client
programs
used
to
download
the
report
files
Ping
–
simple
program
to
test
the
TCP/IP
connection.
Telnet
–
simple
program
to
send
commands
and
see
responses
via
TCP/IP.
Note:
MIU-1500
uses port
1000
as
default.
Winipcfg
–
utility
that
shows
the
computer‟s
IP
address.
Ipconfig
–
utility
that
shows
the
computer‟s
IP
address
(DOS
program).
HyperTerminal
–
provides
terminal
emulation
program
to
communicate
via
TCP/IP,
and
serial
port.
Note:
HyperTerminal
can
answer
calls
via
TCP/IP
but
does
not
work
very
well
with
the
MIU-1500
in
this mode
because
HyperTerminal
echoes
characters
it
receives.
Procomm
–
third
party
program
from
Symantec
–
provides
terminal
emulation
to
communicate
via
TCP/IP
and
serial
port.
Other
Operating
Systems
Web
