4.3 Command Line Interface (CLI)
In order to congure the unit via a serial cable connection, ensure that the unit is connected to a PC (as outlined
in Step 6 on page 11 of the Installation section). Also, terminal emulation software (such as HyperTerminal or
TeraTerm) will be required.
4.3.1 CLI Notes
To view the current conguration settings, enter the command CONFIG C SHOW.
To save changes made to the unit, enter the command CONFIG 0 SAVE.
All entered commands will take effect immediately.
4.3.2 Communication Settings
Step 1) Congure the following settings for the unit:
COM Port: [select the appropriate port; typically COM1]
Baud Rate: 11500
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Parity: No Parity
Flow Control: None
Step 2) Ensure the connection is active by entering the command AT. If the device is functioning properly, it
will return the response OK.
Step 3) Conrm the correct PC COM port is in by entering the command ATI5, this will report the router
rmware and hardware version. The output should begin ‘Digi TransPort DR64’.
4.3.3 Network Settings
To congure the unit with an IP address as part of an existing network, use the commands below.
Note: The DHCP server will still operate unless it is disabled.
Command Description
ETH 0 IPADDR XXX.XXX.XX.XXX Sets the Eth 0 IP address
ETH 0 MASK XXX.XXX.XX.XXX Sets the Eth 0 subnet mask
As an example, to assign the IP address 192.168.10.254/24, the following commands would be entered:
ETH 0 IPADDR 192.168.10.254
ETH 0 MASK 255.255.255.0
Note: When setting the mask to the above 255.255.255.0 value, it will not appear in the output of the
CONFIG C SHOW command as it is a default value.
To stop the DHCP server from serving addresses, use the following command:
Command Description
DHCP 0 IPMIN ! Removes the minimum IP address that will be server via DHCP,
disabling the DHCP server
As an example, to stop the DHCP sever from DHCP requests, enter the command DHCP 0 IPMIN !. The !
variable is used to remove a value or set it back to its default.
To retain the DHCP server, but on a different subnet, the following parameters will need to be congured:
Command Description
DHCP 0 IPMIN x.x.x.x Minimum IP address to assign, the start of the DHCP pool
DHCP 0 IPRANGE n The number of IP addresses in the DHCP pool
DHCP 0 GATEWAY x.x.x.x The IP gateway address the DHCP clients should use
(normally this routers LAN IP address)
DHCP 0 MASK x.x.x.x The subnet mask DHCP clients should use
DHCP 0 DNS x.x.x.x The DNS server DHCP clients should use
