A730SD Replacement with addVANTAGE 4 Pro
Because the addVANTAGE 4 Pro software communicates only via a
TCP/IP network, you must first make sure that the networking is
enabled and configured on the gateway. By default the gateways
are delivered with the networking enabled, so you should be able
to skip this section entirely and go to “Configuring the Gateway
Using the Configurator” on page 22.
However, if for any reasons the network has become disabled,
follow the steps below to enable it. Note that you might need
some information from your network administrator to complete the
steps.
Configuring the Network via a Terminal
1. Connect your gateway to the LAN with the twisted-pair CAT5
cable delivered with the product.
Note: If you don’t have a LAN and you have only one computer,
you must set up a small network. However, if your PC
doesn’t have the necessary network card, you must first
install one and you will need to refer to your PC’s user
manual to do so.
If your LAN consists only of your PC and the A840 gateway,
you can either:
• Use a crossover twisted-pair cable (not provided by
Adcon) to connect one end of the cable to the gateway
and the other to the PC.
• Use the twisted-pair cable provided by Adcon to connect
the gateway to a hub or switch.
2. Connect the gateway to your PC with the serial cable
provided (as shown in Figure 2).
3. Start a terminal program (for example, Hyperterminal under
Windows, Zterm under Mac OS, or minicom under Linux) and
configure it for 19200 baud, no parity, one stop bit, hardware
protocol, send LF after CR.
4. Press any key to see the login prompt. Log into the gateway
as root (the default root password is 840sw).
5. Type netconfig to display the current configuration on your
terminal. Following is an example of a network configuration:
