Testing the TCP/IP communication
This test is to verify that both XM500s are fully initialized and
are connected to the LAN/WAN:
1. Connect a PC to each of the two XM500s that shall
communicate, and start a terminal program on both
PCs. PC terminal baud rate MUST be set to that which
the attached XM500 was programmed.
2. <ping> the IP address of the XM500 to which the other
PC is connected.
EXAMPLE:
Command: <ping 160.221.71.131>
Answer: <160.221.71.131 is alive>
This answer means that the TCP/IP
communication to the target XM500 is working.
If the target XM500 cannot be reached, the
answer will be:
<no answer from 160.221.71.131>
3. If the ping-test was successful, you can set-up and test
a transparent communication by proceeding as follows:
a. Action at Sending PC:<ATD 160.221.71.131>
b. Action at Target PC:
(1) Wait for <ring>
(2) Enter <ata>
(3) Wait for <connect>
EXCEL 5000 Controller Set-Up
Firmware required
— Excel 500 firmware 2.03.03 or newer.
— Excel 100C firmware 2.03.03 or newer.
— Excel 50 firmware 2.03.03 or newer.
— XM100A firmware 1.03.01
— XDM506 firmware 1.03.01
Baud rate
— For XM100A the maximum baud rate is 9.600.
— For XDM506 the maximum baud rate is 2400.
— For XL50, XL100C and XL500 (XC5010C or
XCL5010), the supported baud rates are 2.400, 4.800,
9.600 bps, 19.200 bps and 38.400 bps. (Other baud
rates are not supported.)
1. When the controller is powered-up:
a. Enter the Start-up operating sequence.
b. Go to modem baud rate.
c. Enter the desired baud rate value.
2. When the controller is in operation:
a. Enter the System Data menu.
b. Go to modem baud rate.
c. Enter the desired baud rate value.
IMPORTANT
If baud rates 19.200 and 38.400 bps are to be used
the autobauding MUST be switched <on>.
Hayes Command Set (See Table 1)
NOTE: AT&F and ATZ is not supported. This has the benefit
that once the XM500 has been initialized, it will
always and consistently show the same pre-defined
serial behavior.
