Additional Documentation
The following information is available on the product CD or the Lantronix Web site:www.lantronix.com DeviceInstaller User Guide Provides instructions for using the Windows-based utility to configure the UDS and other Lantronix device servers. (CD and web site) Explain and demonstrate Assigning an IP address to the UDS and Setting up the UDS and the Redirector. See http://ts.lantronix.com/tutorials.html.
2: Introduction
The UDS10 and UDS100 are single-port device servers that provide a quick, simple, and cost-effective way to bring the advantages of data accessibility and remote management to devices not currently connected to a network. The main difference between the two models is that the UDS100 provides both half and full duplex 10/100 Ethernet data transfer, whereas the UDS10 provides only half duplex 10Base-T Ethernet. The technical specifications of the two products differ slightly as well. Unless otherwise noted, we refer to both products as the UDS.
Applications
The UDS family of Device Servers allows serial devices, such as those listed below, to connect and communicate over Ethernet networks using the IP protocol family (TCP for connection-oriented stream applications and UDP for datagram applications).
Security alarms Access control devices Fire control panels Time/attendance clocks and terminals ATM machines Data collection devices RFID readers Universal Power Supply (UPS) management units Telecommunications equipment Data display devices Virtually any asynchronous RS-232, RS422, or RS485 device.
Application Examples
Using a method called serial tunneling, the UDS encapsulates serial data into packets and transports them over Ethernet. Using two UDS units, connected by a network, virtual serial connections can extend across a facility or around the world. The Com Port Redirector software included on the product CD simplifies the integration process by extending the functionality of COM-port-based Windows applications. Virtual COM ports, mapped to remote device servers on the network, can replace direct serial connections.
10
Introduction
Note: For step-by-step instructions on configuring the UDS for serial tunneling or for use with the Com Port Redirector, access the UDS Configuration Tutorials using Web Manager. (See Accessing Web Manager on page 18.)
11
Introduction
Protocol Support
The UDS uses the Internet Protocol (IP) for network communications and the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) to assure that no data is lost or duplicated and everything sent to the connection arrives correctly at the target. Supported protocols include:
ARP, UDP, TCP, ICMP, Telnet, TFTP, AutoIP, DHCP, HTTP, and SNMP for network communications. TCP, UDP, and Telnet for connections to the serial port. TFTP for firmware updates. IP for addressing, routing, and data block handling over the network. User Datagram Protocol (UDP) for typical datagram applications in which devices interact with other devices without a point-to-point connection.
Additional Features
Modem Emulation: In modem emulation mode, the UDS can replace dial-up modems. The unit accepts modem AT commands on the serial port, and then establishes a network connection to the end device, leveraging network connections and bandwidth to eliminate dedicated modems and phone lines. Built-in Web Server: The UDS includes a built-in web server for configuring the unit and displaying operating and troubleshooting information on the attached links to online support.
Configuration Methods
After installation, the UDS requires configuration. For the unit to operate correctly on a network, it must have a unique IP address on the network. There are three basic methods for logging into the UDS and assigning IP addresses and other configurable settings: DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and other network settings on the UDS using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to a network. (See DeviceInstaller on page 16.) Web Manager: Through a web interface configures the UDS settings using the Lantronix Web Manager. (See 4: Configuring the UDS Using Web Manager.) Serial and Telnet Ports: There are two approaches to accessing Setup Mode: making a Telnet connection to the network port (9999) or connecting a terminal (or a PC running a terminal emulation program) to the units serial port. (See 5: Configuring the UDS Using Telnet or the Serial Port.)

3: Getting Started
This chapter describes how to get your UDS up and running in the shortest possible time.
To install the unit, complete the following steps in order. Refer to the numbers in the figure above. 1. Connect a serial device to your unit. See 9: Connections and Pinouts for more information about the device attachments the unit supports. 2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port. 3. Supply power to your unit using the power supply that was included in the packaging. Note: The required input voltage is 9-30 VDC or 9-24 VAC (1 W maximum). 4. Supply power to the serial device. Note: If you encounter a problem, please see LEDs on page 45 for diagnostic information.
14
Getting Started
Required Information
Before configuring the UDS, have the following information available:
Hardware Address
Take note of the units hardware address (also known as the Ethernet or MAC address). It is on the product label, in the format: 00-20-4a-XX-XX-XX, where the XXs are unique numbers assigned to the product (see Product Information Label on page13). Hardware Address: 00-20-4a-_____-_____-_____
IP Address
The UDS must have a unique IP address on your network. This address references the specific unit. By default, the device is DHCP-enabled and automatically assigned an IP address on DHCP-enabled networks. If you are assigning a static IP address, the systems administrator generally provides the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway. Note: The factory default IP address is 0.0.0.0 to enable DHCP, BOOTP, and AutoIP. When the units boots, it sends a DHCP broadcast to try and get an IP address. If it receives no reply from a DHCP server, the UDS tries BOOTP. If the UDS does not receive a response from BOOTP, it reverts to an AutoIP address.

To confirm a default value, just press Enter. 5. When you are finished, save the new configuration (option 9). The unit reboots.
IP Address
The IP address must be set to a unique value in your network. If the IP address has not been assigned by DHCP, enter it manually. Enter each octet, pressing Enter after each. See A: Alternative Ways to Assign an IP Address for more information about IP addressing.
Netmask
A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP address that are assigned for the host section. The host section is the part of the IP address that is specific to the UDS.
24
Note: Class A: 24 bits; Class B: 16 bits; Class C: 8 bits. The unit prompts for the number of host bits to enter, then calculates the netmask, which displays in standard decimal-dot notation when the saved parameters display (for example, 255.255.255.0).
Table 5-1. Standard IP Network Netmasks
Netmask
255.255.255.252 255.255.255.248 255.255.255.240 255.255.255.224 255.255.255.192 255.255.255.128 255.255.255.0 255.255.254.0 255.255.252.0 255.255.248.0 ... 255.128.0.0 255.0.0.0
Host Bits
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ... 23 24
DHCP Naming
A DHCP name is a unique identifier used for managing multiple DHCP hosts on a network. Your unit ships with a default DHCP name of Cxxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Mac address. You can change the DHCP name (up to eight characters) when configuring the server in Setup Mode. Change the DHCP name to LTXdd, where 0.0.0.dd is the IP address assigned (dd should be a number between 1 and 99). For example, if the IP address is set to 0.0.0.5, the resulting DHCP name is LTX05.
25
If you give the unit an IP of 0.0.0.0, you then have the option to assign an 8-character DHCP name.
Figure 5-4. Server Configuration Option
Change DHCP device name (LTRX) ? (N) Y Enter new DHCP device name : LTRXYES
Baudrate
The unit and attached serial device, such as a modem, must agree on a speed or baud rate to use for the serial connection. Valid baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 bits per second.

Port Number
Every TCP connection and every UDP datagram has a destination IP address and a port number. A port number is similar to an extension on a PBX system. For example, a Telnet application commonly uses port number 23. Port number 9999 is reserved for access to the unit's Setup Mode. The Port Number setting represents the source port number in TCP connections. It is the number that identifies the channel for remote initiating connections. For example, to send data to channel 1, send TCP/UDP packets to this assigned port number. The default setting for port 1 is 10001. The range is 1-65535, except for the following reserved port numbers:
27
Port Numbers
1 1024 9999 30718
Reserved for
Reserved (well known ports) Telnet setup Reserved (77FEh)
Warning: We recommend that you not use the reserved port numbers for this setting as incorrect operation may result. Use port 0 for the outgoing local port to change with each connection. The port range is 50,000 to 59,999. Each subsequent connection increments the number by 1. (When the port number reaches 59999, it wraps around to 50000.) Only use the automatic port increment feature to initiate a connection using TCP. Set the port to a non-zero value when the unit is in a passive mode or when you are using UDP instead of TCP.
Connect Mode
Connect Mode defines how the unit makes a connection, and how it reacts to incoming connections over the network. Enter Connect Mode options in hexadecimal notation. Note: To look up hex values, see B: Binary to Hexadecimal.
Table 5-6. Connect Mode Options
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1
28
Manual Connection
The UDS attempts to connect when directed by a command string received from the serial port. The first character of the command string must be a C (ASCII 0x43), and the last character must be either a carriage return (ASCII 0x0D) or a line feed (0x0A). No spaces may be in the command string. Between the first and last command string characters must be a full or partial destination IP address and can include a destination port number. The IP address must be in standard dot-decimal notation and may be a partial address, representing the least significant 1, 2, or 3 bytes of the remote IP address. A period is required between each pair of IP address numbers. If present, the port number must follow the IP address, must be a decimal number in the range 1-65535, and must be preceded by a forward slash (ASCII 0x2F). The slash separates the IP address and the port number. If you omit the port number from a command string, the internally stored remote port number becomes the destination port number when the connection attempt is made. If the command string includes a partial IP address, the UDS interprets it to be the least significant bytes of the IP address and uses the internally stored remote IP address to provide the most significant bytes of the IP address. If the IP address entered is 0.0.0.0/0, the device server enters Monitor Mode. For example, if the remote IP address already configured in the unit is 129.1.2.3, then an example command string would be C3/7. (This would connect to 129.1.2.3 and port 7.) You may also use a different ending for the connection string. For example, C50.1/23 would connect you to 129.1.50.1 and port 23.
Table 5-7. Manual Connection Address Example
Command String
C121.2.4.5/1 C5 C28.10/12
Autostart (Automatic Connection): If you enable autostart, the unit automatically connects to the remote IP address and remote port specified. Datagram Type: When selecting this option, you will be prompted for the datagram type. Enter 01 for directed or broadcast UDP. Hostlist: If you enable this option, the Lantronix unit scrolls through the hostlist until it connects to a device listed in the hostlist table. Once it connects, the unit stops trying to connect to any others. If this connection fails, the unit continues to scroll through the table until it connects to another IP in the hostlist.
29
To use the hostlist option, follow these steps: 1. To enable the hostlist, enter a Connect Mode of 0x20 (2X). The menu shows you a list of current entries already defined in the product. 2. To delete, modify, or add an entry, select Yes. If you enter an IP address of 0.0.0.0, that entry and all others after it are deleted. 3. After completing the hostlist, repeat the previous step if necessary to edit the hostlist again. 4. For Retrycounter, enter the number of times the Lantronix unit should try to make a good network connection to a hostlist entry that it has successfully ARPed. 5. For Retrytimeout, enter the number of seconds the unit should wait before failing an attempted connection. Modem (Emulation) Mode: In Modem Mode, the unit presents a modem interface to the attached serial device. It accepts AT-style modem commands, and handles the modem signals correctly. Normally there is a modem connected to a local PC and a modem connected to a remote machine. A user must dial from the local PC to the remote machine,
30
accumulating phone charges for each connection. Modem Mode allows you to replace modems with UDS units, and to use an Ethernet connection instead of a phone call. By not having to change communications applications, you avoid potentially expensive phone calls. To select Modem Mode, set the Connect Mode to C6 (no echo), D6 (echo with full verbose), or D7 (echo with 1-character response). Note: If the unit is in Modem Mode and the serial port is idle, the unit still accepts network TCP connections to the serial port if Connect Mode is set to C6 (no echo), D6 (echo with full verbose), or D7 (echo with 1-character response).
Echo: Refers to the echo of all of the characters entered in command mode; it does not mean to echo data that is transferred. Quiet Mode (no echo) refers to the modem not sending an answer to the commands received (or displaying what was typed). Full Verbose: The unit echoes modem commands and responds to a command with a message string. 1-Character Response: The unit echoes modem commands and responds to a command with a single character response.
There must be a 1-second guardtime (no data traffic) before sending +++. There must not be a break longer than 1 second between +s. There must be another 1-second guardtime after the last + is sent.
2. When the unit acknowledges with an OK to indicate that it is in command mode, enter ATH and press Enter. The command is echoed if echo is enabled. ATH is acknowledged by another OK.
31

ATH ATDTx.x.x.x,pppp Makes a connection to an IP address (x.x.x.x) and a remote port number or (pppp). ATDTx.x.x.x/pppp Enables or disables connections from the network going to the serial port: n=0 disables the ability to make a connection from the network to the serial port. ATS0=n n=1-9 enables the ability to make a connection from the network to the serial port. n>1-9 is invalid. ATEn ATVn Enables or disables character echo and responses: n=0 disables character echo and responses. n=1 enables character echo and responses. Enables 1-character response or full verbose: n=0 enables 1-character response. n=1 enables full verbose.
Note: The unit only recognizes these AT commands as single commands like ATE0 or ATV. It does not recognize compound commands such as ATE0V1. All other AT commands with Modem Mode set to full verbose acknowledge with an OK, but the unit takes no action.
Remote IP Address
This is the destination IP address used with an outgoing connection.
Remote Port
The remote TCP port number must be set for the unit to make outgoing connections. This parameter defines the port number on the target host to which a connection is attempted. Note: To connect an ASCII terminal to a host using the unit for login purposes, use the remote port number 23 (Internet standard port number for Telnet services).
32
Disconnect Mode
This option determines the conditions under which the unit causes a network connection to terminate. In DisConnMode, DTR drop either drops the connection or is ignored. Note: To look up hex values, see B: Binary to Hexadecimal.
Table 5-9. Disconnect Mode Options
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1
1. The UDS sends the "Terminal Type" upon an outgoing connection. 2. A password is required for a connection to the serial port from the network. 3. The TCP connection closes even if the remote site does not acknowledge the disconnection. 4. When there is a network connection to or from the serial port, the state LED turns off instead of blinking. 5. When Ctrl D or Hex 04 are detected, the connection is dropped. Both Telnet mode and Disconnect with EOT must be enabled for Disconnect with EOT to function properly. Ctrl D is only be detected going from the serial port to the network.
Flush Mode
Flush Mode (buffer flushing) controls line handling and network buffers with connection startup and disconnect. You can select between two different packing algorithms. Note: To look up hex values, see B: Binary to Hexadecimal. Available Flush Mode options are:
Table 5-10. Flush Mode Options
Function

Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
1 1 1 1 1 1 1
33
Pack Control
Two firmware-selectable packing algorithms define how and when the unit sends packets to the network. The standard algorithm is optimized for applications in which the unit is used in a local environment, allowing for very small delays for single characters while keeping the packet count low. The alternate packing algorithm minimizes the packet count on the network and is especially useful in applications in a routed Wide Area Network (WAN). Adjusting settings in this mode can economize the network data stream. Pack control settings are enabled in Flush Mode. Set Pack Control to 00 if specific functions are not needed. Note: To look up hex values, see B: Binary to Hexadecimal.
Table 5-11. Pack Control Options
Option
Idle Time Force transmit: 12ms Force transmit: 52ms Force transmit: 250ms Force transmit: 5sec Trailing Characters None One Two Send Characters 2-Byte Send Character Sequence Send Immediately After Send chars
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1
Idle Time: Idle time to "Force transmit" defines how long the unit waits before sending accumulated characters. This wait period is between characters. If there is an idle period between characters equal to the force transmit set, the UDS packages the serial data currently in the buffer and sends it to the network. Trailing Characters: In some applications, CRC, Checksum, or other trailing characters follow the end-of-sequence character. This option helps to adapt frame transmission to the frame boundary. Send Characters:
If 2-Byte Send Character Sequence is enabled, the unit interprets the sendchars as a 2-byte sequence. If this option is not enabled, the unit interprets them independently. If Send Immediately After Send Characters is not set, any characters already in the serial buffer are included in the transmission after the unit finds a "transmit" condition. With this option, the unit sends immediately after recognizing the transmit condition (sendchar or timeout).
Note: A transmission might occur if status information needs to be exchanged or an acknowledgment needs to be sent.
34
Send Characters
Enter up to two characters in hexadecimal representation for the SendChar settings. If the unit receives a character on the serial line that matches one of these characters, it sends the character immediately, along with any awaiting characters, to the TCP connection. This action minimizes the response time for specific protocol characters on the serial line (for example, ETX, EOT). Setting the first SendChar to 00 disables the recognition of the characters. Alternatively, the unit can interpret two characters as a sequence (see Pack Control on page 34).
Expert Settings
Note: Change these settings using Telnet or serial connections only, not Web Manager. Caution: Only an expert should change these parameters. These changes have serious consequences.

35
Security Settings
Change these settings using Telnet or serial connections only, not Web Manager. Note: We recommend that you set security over the dedicated network or over the serial setup. If you set security over the network (Telnet 9999), someone else could capture these settings. Caution: Disabling both Telnet Setup and Port 77FE prevents users from accessing the Setup Mode from the network.

6: Updating Firmware
This chapter explains how to obtain and update the units firmware.
Obtaining Firmware
Obtain the most up-to-date firmware and release notes for the unit from the Lantronix Web site (http://www.lantronix.com/) or by using anonymous FTP (ftp://ftp.lantronix.com/).
Reloading Firmware
There are several ways to update the unit's internal operational code. Use DeviceInstaller (the preferred way), TFTP, another unit, or the serial port. Another option is to use the unit's internal web interface (CBXW*.COB) using TFTP or DeviceInstaller. Following are typical names for the files. Check the Lantronix Web site for the latest versions and release notes. UDS10
UDS100
Using DeviceInstaller
1. Download the updated firmware files from http://www.lantronix.com/ or ftp://ftp.lantronix.com/ and store them in a subfolder on your computer. 2. Click the Start button on the Task Bar and select Programs Lantronix DeviceInstaller DeviceInstaller. The DeviceInstaller window displays. 3. Click the Search the network for devices icon. The Search Network window displays. 4. Once located by DeviceInstaller, highlight the device in the device list and click the Upgrade button (which displays after you select the device). Select a custom installation by specifying the individual files and clicking Next. 5. Click the Browse button to select the location of the firmware file being loaded, then click Next.
39
Updating Firmware
6. Select Do not copy or replace any files and click Next. Note: This option upgrades the firmware file (.ROM file) only, not the Web Manager files (.COB). 7. Click Next again. The status of the upgrade shows in the window. 8. After the upgrade completes, click Close.
Using TFTP
If you are running Windows NT or higher, you can simply enter the following command at the command prompt: TFTP i IP address of UDS PUT source file name destination file name Note: It is easiest to issue the command from the same directory as the one where the firmware files are. To download new firmware using a TFTP client: 1. Use a TFTP client to send a binary file (LTX*.ROM for UDS10, DLX*.ROM for UDS100) to the unit to upgrade the unit's internal operational code, and CBXW*.cob to upgrade its internal web interface). Note: TFTP requires the .ROM (binary) version of the unit's internal operational code. 2. Make sure the Put and Binary options at the top of the window are selected. 3. Enter the full path of the firmware file in the Source File field. 4. In the Destination File field, type of the following:
3L for the UDS10 or 3D for the UDS100 to load the internal operational code WEB6 for the internal web interface.
5. In the Remote Host field, enter the IP address of the unit being upgraded. 6. Click the Put button to transfer the file to the unit.
40
Updating Firmware
The unit performs a power reset after the firmware has been loaded and stored.
SF x.x.x.x
The receiving unit performs a power reset after the firmware has been loaded and stored. Note: You can only update the units internal web interface using TFTP or DeviceInstaller.

LEDs
The UDS products contain the following LEDs, which help you diagnose problems.
10 Mbps Link/Activity (green) 100 Mbps Link/Activity (green) Collisions Diagnostics (red) Status (yellow)
Simultaneously lit red and green LEDs mean something is wrong. If the red LED is lit or blinking, count the number of times the green LED blinks between its pauses. The following table explains the LED functions:

When troubleshooting the following problems, make sure that the UDS is powered up and the Link LED is lit solid green. If the Link LED is not lit, then the physical network connection is bad. Confirm that you are using a good network connection. We recommend that you use a serial connection so you can view any diagnostic information sent out the serial port.
Table 8-2. Problems and Error Messages
Problem/Message
When you issue the ARP S command in Windows, The ARP entry addition failed: 5 message displays. When you attempted to assign an IP address to the UDS using the ARP method, the Press Enter to go into Setup Mode error (described below) displayed. Now when you Telnet to the UDS, the connection fails.
Reason
Your currently logged-in user does not have the correct rights to use this command on this PC.
Solution
Have someone from your IT department log you in with sufficient rights.
When you Telnet into port 1 on the UDS, you are only assigning a temporary IP address. When you Telnet into port 9999 and do not press Enter quickly, the UDS reboots, causing it to lose the IP address. You did not press Enter quickly enough. You only have 5 seconds to press Enter before the connection closes.
Telnet back into port 1. Wait for it to fail, then Telnet to port 9999 again. Make sure you press Enter quickly.
When you Telnet to port 9999, the message Press Enter to go into Setup Mode displays. However, nothing happens when you press Enter, or your connection closes.
Telnet to port 9999 again, but press Enter as soon as you see the message Press Enter to go into Setup Mode.
46
Problem/Message
When you Telnet to port 1 to assign an IP address to the UDS, the Telnet window does not respond for a long time.
Reason
You may have entered the hardware address incorrectly with the ARP command.
Solution
Confirm that the hardware address that you entered with the ARP command is correct. The hardware address may only include numbers 0-9 and letters A-F. In Windows and usually in Unix, the segments of the address are separated by dashes. In some forms of Unix, the address is segmented with colons. Confirm that your PC has an IP address and that it is in the same logical subnet that you are trying to assign to the UDS. Make sure that the Link LED is lit. If the Link LED is not lit, then the UDS is not properly plugged into the network. Double-check the settings that you specified. Note: You cannot assign an IP address to a UDS through a router.
The IP address you are trying to assign is not on your logical subnet.
When you try to assign an IP with DeviceInstaller, you get the following message: No device was found at this hardware address.
The cause is most likely one of the following: The hardware address you specified is incorrect. The device is not physically connected to the network.
The unit or its power supply is damaged, or the unit is not plugged into power properly.
Try plugging the UDS into another outlet. If this does not fix the problem, contact your dealer or Lantronix Technical Support for a replacement. Consult the LEDs section above or the Quick Start for the LED flashing sequence patterns. Call Lantronix Technical Support if the blinking pattern indicates a critical error.
The UDS will not power up properly, and the LEDs are flashing.
Various
47
Problem/Message
The UDS is not communicating with the serial device attached to the UDS.
Reason
The most likely reason is the wrong serial cable or serial settings were chosen.
Solution
Make sure that you are using the correct serial cable. The UDS serial port is just like a modem serial port (DCE). The serial settings for the serial device and the UDS must match. The default serial settings for the UDS are RS232, 9600 baud, 8 character bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
When you try to enter Setup Mode on the UDS using the serial cable, you get no response.
The issue is likely something covered in the previous problem, or possibly you have Caps Lock on.
Double-check everything in the problem above. Confirm that Caps Lock is not on.
You can ping the UDS, but not Telnet to the UDS on port 9999.
There may be an IP address conflict on your network. You are not Telneting to port 9999. The Telnet configuration port (9999) is disabled within the UDS security settings. The unit may have the correct IP address, but an incorrect gateway address.
Turn the UDS off and then issue the following commands at the DOS prompt of your computer: ARP -D X.X.X.X (X.X.X.X is the IP of the UDS) PING X.X.X.X (X.X.X.X is the IP of the UDS). If you get a response, then there is a duplicate IP address on the network (the LEDs on the UDS should flash a sequence that tells you this). If you do not get a response, use the serial port to verify that Telnet is not disabled.
With DeviceInstaller, you get the Wrong Password error when you try to upgrade the firmware.
The file you are attempting to load is the incorrect firmware file for the UDS.
48
Problem/Message
You are using the correct serial cable, and the UDS is set up correctly, but you are not communicating with your device attached to the UDS across the network.
Reason
If you are sure that the serial cable is correct, then you may not be connecting to the correct socket of the UDS. Another possibility is that the UDS is not set up correctly to make a good socket connection to the network.
Solution
You can check to see whether there is a socket connection to or from the UDS by looking at the Status LED. If the Status LED is blinking consistently, then there is a good socket connection. If the Status LED is solid green, then the socket connection does not exist. Use the Connect Mode option C0 for making a connection to the UDS from the network. Use Connect Mode option C1 or C5 for a connection to the network from the UDS. See the full list of Connect Mode hexadecimals in B: Binary to Hexadecimal.
When connecting to Web Manager within the UDS, the message No Connection With The UDS displays.
Your computer is not able to connect to port 30718 (77FEh) on the UDS.
Make sure that port 30718 (77FEh) is not blocked with any router that you are using on the network. Also make sure that port 77FEh is not disabled within the Security settings of the UDS.

DHCP
The unit ships with a default IP address of 0.0.0.0, which automatically enables DHCP. If a DHCP server exists on the network, it provides the unit with an IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask when the unit boots up. You can use the DeviceInstaller software to search the network for the DHCPassigned IP address and add it to the list of devices retrieved. Note: This DHCP address does not appear in the units Setup Mode or in Web Manager. You can determine your units DHCP-assigned IP address in Monitor Mode. When you enter Monitor Mode from the serial port with network connection enabled (see Entering Monitor Mode Using the Serial Port on page 43) and issue the NC (Network Communication) command, you see the units IP configuration.
AutoIP
The unit ships with a default IP address of 0.0.0.0, which automatically enables Auto IP within the unit. AutoIP is an alternative to DHCP that allows hosts to automatically obtain an IP address in smaller networks that may not have a DHCP server. A range of IP addresses (from 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.1) has been explicitly reserved for AutoIP-enabled devices. Do not use this range of Auto IP addresses over the Internet.
If your unit cannot find a DHCP server, and you have not manually assigned an IP address to it, the unit automatically selects an address from the AutoIP reserved range. Then, your unit sends out a (ARP) request to other nodes on the same network to see whether the selected address is being used. If the selected address is not in use, then the unit uses it for local subnet communication. If another device is using the selected IP address, the unit selects another address from the AutoIP range and reboots. After reboot, the unit sends out another ARP request to see if the selected address is in use, and so on.
AutoIP does not replace DHCP. The unit continues to look for a DHCP server on the network. If it finds a DHCP server, the unit switches to the DHCP server-provided address and reboots. Note: If a DHCP server is found, but it denies the request for an IP address, the unit does not attach to the network, but waits and retries. AutoIP can be disabled by setting the units IP address to 0.0.1.0. This setting enables DHCP but disables AutoIP.
57
BOOTP
Similar to DHCP, but for smaller networks. Automatically assigns the IP address for a specific duration of time.
Note: For the ARP command to work on Windows 95, the ARP table on the PC must have at least one IP address defined other than its own. 2. If you are using Windows 95, type ARP -A at the DOS command prompt to verify that there is at least one entry in the ARP table. If the local machine is the only entry, ping another IP address on your network to build a new entry in the ARP table; the IP address must be a host other than the machine on which you are working. Once there is at least one additional entry in the ARP table, use the following command to ARP an IP address to the unit:
arp -s 191.12.3.77 00-20-4a-xx-xx-xx
3. Open a Telnet connection to port 1. The connection fails quickly, but the unit temporarily changes its IP address to the one designated in this step.
telnet 191.12.3.77 1
4. Open a Telnet connection to port 9999, and press Enter within five seconds to go into Setup Mode. If you wait longer than five seconds, the unit reboots.
telnet 191.12.3.77 9999
Note: The IP address you just set is temporary and reverts to the default value when the units power is reset, unless you configure the unit with a static IP address and store the changes permanently.

Conversion Table
Hexadecimal digits have values ranging from 0 to F, which are represented as 0-9, A (for 10), B (for 11), etc. To convert a binary value (for example, 0100 1100) to a hexadecimal representation, the upper and lower four bits are treated separately, resulting in a two-digit hexadecimal number (in this case, 4C). Use the following table to convert values from binary to hexadecimal. Decimal
