5 - 8 ONline Ethernet Management Module Installation and Operation Guide
This last step of the installation loads the ProComm configuration file. The
configuration file sets the parameters that are used by ProComm to
communicate with the EMM. The parameters are as follows:
Baud= 9600
Data Bits= 8
Stop Bits= 1
Parity= None
COM Port= (Port number selected in step 7)
11. The message “Installation Complete” is displayed. ProComm is now
installed and ready for use.
Connect the RS-232 Cable
This step provides instructions for connecting your PC to the Ethernet
Management Module so you can download the software to the Flash
EPROM. Follow the instructions below:
1. Connect the provided RS-232 cable to the Ethernet Ring Management
Module RS-232 serial port connector on the front panel of the
module.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port on your PC
(using the provided 9- to 25-pin adapter if necessary). Make sure you
connect the cable to the communications port you specified for
ProComm during the FDK installation procedure.
Preparing to Download the New Software
This procedure copies the new EMM software to the Flash EPROM on the
Ethernet Management Module. Note that this procedure creates a file
called profile.cmd in the PROCOMM directory. If you currently have a file
with that name, rename it before the UDK download so that it does not
get overwritten. If PROCOMM is on the FDK disk, the disk must be write
enabled.
