Step 3: Change the Server Properties as required.
 Enable DHCP to allow the ESP904 to generate its own IP
address
OR
 Obtain appropriate static IP, Netmask and Gateway addresses
from your Network Administrator (recommended)
 Set the Console Mode property to RS-232 to match the serial
device connected to the ESP904 serial port 1.
 Set Baud Rate, Data/Parity/Stop, and Flow Control to match
the configuration of the serial device connected to the ESP904
serial port
Step 4: When the parameters have been set, click Update. Following the
prompts in the dialogue boxes, Restart the Serial Server and
Search all reachable servers again.
Step 5: Re-enter Server Properties to verify the changes have taken effect,
or to view/change the configuration of other ports. Each port must
be configured separately.
