Serial Console (19200, n, 8, 1)
You may use the RS-232 console port to set up the IP address for NPort 5210/5230. We suggest using
MOXA PComm Terminal Emulator, which is available free of charge as part of the MOXA PComm
Lite program suite, to carry out the installation procedure, although other similar utilities may also be
used. (Please go to www.moxa.com to download the installation program for PComm Lite.)
Before you start to configure the NPort via serial console, turn off the power and connect the serial
cable from NPort to your computer’s serial port.
1. Connect NPort 5210/5230’s serial port 1 directly to your computer’s male RS-232 serial port.
2. From the Windows desktop click on Start  Programs  PComm Lite  Terminal Emulator.
3. When the PComm Terminal Emulator window
opens, first click on the Port Manager menu item and
select Open, or simply click on the Open icon.
4. The Property window opens automatically. From the
Communication Parameter page, select the
appropriate COM port for the connection, COM1 in
this example, and 19200 for Baud Rate, 8 for Data
Bits, None for Parity, and 1 for Stop Bits.
5. From the Property window’s Terminal page, select
ANSI or VT100 for Terminal Type and then click
OK.
If you select Dumb Terminal as the terminal type,
some of the console functions—especially the
“Monitor” function—may not work properly.
