SerialGate User Guide 4. Make Connection This chapter explains how to install SG-3011DCL/232. It deals with LAN and serial connection guides for SG-3011DCL/232 to operate together with the target serial device. Before connection In order to connect SG-3011DCL/232 to the network, you need to use RJ45 Ethernet port. It supports both 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet connection (auto-sensing). Since LAN port in SG-3011DCL/232 supports MDIX, it automatically detects any kind of cable.
SerialGate User Guide address, SG-3011DCL/232 supports the following options in case that a user does not know IP address. Default IP Address: 192.168.0.223 The default IP address set for SG-3011DCL/232 is 192.168.0.223. To connect to this address, some changes are needed to be made from the PC. Please refer to following example.
SerialGate User Guide 5. Configure through the Web This chapter explains how to connect SG3011DCL/232 through the Web. Connection Open a web browser and type the IP address of the SG-3011PCL. A login window, shown below, will appear. The initial ID and password are “serialgate” and “99999999” without quotes. The ID and password can be modified once logged in. Network Setting After logged in, the ‘Network Setting’ page will be displayed. Every values in here except the MAC address can be modified.

Com Port Redirector With COM Port Redirection, a user can use serial port connected to SerialGate on the network as if it is a serial port on PC. Install COM Port Redirector and set the following steps. (For installation, please refer to Com Port Redirector manual enclosed in CD. In the picture below, IP address of SerialGate is 192.168.0.
SerialGate User Guide In order to correspond to the Redirector setting of PC, change the setting in the first serial port of SerialGate as follows.
SerialGate User Guide TCP_Server (TCP/IP connection from PC to SerialGate) In socket program from the PC, connect the first serial port of SerialGate. Since socket number for the first port of SerialGate is default 4001, try to connect to IP address and socket number 4001 in Serial Gate when connecting from the PC to the SerialGate. As shown below, change the Operation Mode to TCP_Server and confirm the socket number waiting for connection.
SerialGate User Guide TCP_Client (TCP/IP connection from SerialGate to PC) SerialGate connects to TCP/IP through the socket program in PC. Since it is a connection from SerialGate to a PC, change the Operation Mode to TCP_Client and register PC’s IP address and socket number to be connected. Check the communication speed of a serial device to be connected to serial port, and set it to Com Specification.
SerialGate User Guide Troubleshooting This section describes procedures for troubleshooting problems you may encounter with SerialGate. Troubleshooting Installation Problems If you cannot access the connected serial device via SG-3011DCL/232, first check the network connection and cabling.
SerialGate User Guide connectivity problems). If the IP address is not correct, then check whether the loading procedure was properly executed. Also verify that the host computer and SerialGate are using the same subnet masks (for example, if SG-3011DCL/232 has a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the host must have the same subnet mask) or that the router is properly configured to pass data between the two devices.
