The FireLine expects the virtual COM port baud rate to be set at 57600.
You should now be able to communicate with the FireLine Ethernet through the
virtual COM port as though it was connected directly to your PC’s COM port.
Characters typed into HyperTerminal will be transmitted over the air, and you can
enter the FireLine configuration mode by typing +++ in the same way you can
had the PC been connected using an RS-232 cable.
6. TCP/IP Socket Operation
FireLine Ethernet devices with the Digi Connect module support data transfer
using a TCP/IP socket.
6.1.
About TCP and UDP Port Numbers
Digi Connect devices use the following default TCP and UDP port numbering
conventions described in the following table: You must ensure that the
application or device that initiates communication with the Connect device uses
these ports. If they cannot be configured to use these ports, you change the
individual network port on the Digi Connect device, which allows you different
port numbers to designate a Telnet or raw connection to the serial port.
For this connection type... Use these ports:
•
Telnet to the serial port 2001 (TCP only)
•
Raw connection to the serial port 2101(TCP and UDP)
6.2.
Configuring the FireLine TCP Socket Operation
This procedure assumes the IP address of the FireLine Ethernet radio modem
has already been set, as per the previous section.
1. Using the Digi Connect Discovery program, select and log into your
FireLine Ethernet modem’s web interface.
2. From the main menu, select “Serial Ports”. This will display the current
serial port configuration as shown below.
8. Click on Port1, to display its configuration. The Port Profile should be “TCP
Sockets” as shown below. If it does, skip to step 5, if not, perform step 4.
