1 Introduction
The Ethernet module is a module that can be used in all mains-supplied models of ISC230, SC230 and
ISC230B.
Article code NN2566.
The module is designed to be Plug & Play , once powered, the embedded microcontroller takes care of all
needed settings on the MOXA ethernet module. When used in installations with an UNIGAS electronic
volume converter, settings to the UNIGAS are needed for proper operation. See chapter 4 “UNIGAS
settings”.
2 Installation
2.1 Installing the module
Electrostatic discharges (ESD) can cause damage to internal electrical components if no
precautions are taken. ESD is caused by static electricity and the damage caused is usually
permanent.
Some of the components in the device in which the Ethernet module is to be installed are
connected to the mains voltage. Switch off the mains voltage before carrying out this work. Refer
to the user manual of the device in which the Ethernet module is to be installed.
Depending on the device in which the Ethernet module is to be installed, this will take place as follows:
•ISC230 and SC230 (see label on the left of the casing): connect the Ethernet module to the free
connector.
•ISC230B (see label on the left of the casing): there are three connectors present. There may already
other modules be installed. Connect the Ethernet module to a free connector.
2.2 Connecting the equipment to a ethernet network
The module is connected to an ethernet network via an RJ-45 connector. The connector must be crimped
onto the cable after the cable has passed through one of the cable glands. The cable gland must be properly
tightened.

4 UNIGAS settings
Some settings in UNIGAS are needed if it is to be used with the ISC230B and Ethernet module. These settings
may have been factory set.

To use optical port 2 of UNIGAS 300 a module must be installed in UNIGAS 300 to activate port 2. Contact
Wigersma & Sikkema if this is required.
No settings are needed.

5 Setting up the TCP server of the MiiNePort E1
The following steps explain how to set up the TCP server on the MiiNePort E1, which is embedded on the
Ethernet module. When delivered by Wigersma & Sikkema B.V., the settings for Plug & Play use are already
preconfigured.
Step 1:
Install Moxa’s Device Search Utility (DSU), this program can be downloaded free of charge at:
https://www.moxa.com/getmedia/60d99361-a3fc-4f51-b49a-dcbc5876a629/moxa-de ice-search-
utility- 2.3.zip
This program can be used to identify Moxa devices on a network.
Step 2:
In DSU press Search (ctrl+B), a window will appear in which all found (Moxa) devices will be listed
(see fig. 3). The Stop button could be pressed after the MiiNePort E1 has been found, to stop
searching (searching will automatically stop after 10 seconds).
The search window will disappear once searching has finished, this will bring you back to DSU’s main
window.
When delivered by W&S, the MiiNePort E1 is not password protected. When a reset is
performed to factory settings, it is very likely that the MiiNePort is password protected.
The password is "moxa". The password can be disabled in the MiiNePort Web Console.
Step 3:
In the main window, double click the line of the MiiNePort. This will bring you to the embedded web
console of the Ethernet module (see fig. 4). It is also possible to select the MiiNePort E1 and press the
Console button in the main window.

Step 4:
The left side of the web console contains a tree menu for all settings. The following settings should be
set for correct operation:
Figure 4: Settings
Basic Settings >> Serial Port Settings:
•… Port Alias Can be left blank
•… Baud rate Should be set to 9600
•… Data bits Should be set to 8
•… Stop bits Should be set to 1
•… Parity Should be set to None
•… Flow control Should be set to None or RTS/CTS
•… FIFO Should be set to Enable.
Press Submit to save the settings. Ignore the message that appears and go to the Operation Modes:
Basic Settings >> Operation Modes:
•… Mode Should be set to TCP
•… Role Should be set to TCP Server
•… Local TCP port Default set to 4001; Free to choose
•… IP address Default set to 192.168.127.254; Free to choose
Press Submit again and in the next screen press Save/Restart. The red LED on the MiiNePort will
start blinking to indicate that it is restarting.
The settings in step 5 are limited to the absolute minimum needed for correct operation, you are free
to look into the other settings in the web console. It is advisable to add a password to the console via
maintenance >> Change Password, for increased protection.
Step 5:
If all steps were followed correctly, you should be able to use the module, for instance with UNITOOL.
