Appendix D Ethernet Configuration
This section details the ethernet configuration for the DL-V3 including automatic Ethernet
configuration on start-up.
On power-up, or after a FRESET command, the DL-V3 automatically configures the Ethernet device.
This configuration includes the following settings:
Static IP address: 192.168.1.223
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Ethernet Line 1 speed: 115 200 bps
If the receiver is turned off, or power is removed, the Ethernet or Bluetooth mode on COM3 is
returned to whichever mode was applied before power-down when it is powered up again. When you
issue a FRESET command, COM3 defaults to Bluetooth mode.
D.1 Physical Set-Up
Below are the configuration methods described in this section and the hardware you require to set
them up:
Configuration Via Network Cable
- DL-V3 with power cable and serial communications cable
- User-supplied laptop with an available Ethernet port, serial port (or USB port with
NovAtel serial to USB drivers) and the Lantronix software, described below, installed
- Sheilded CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable (or use a switch with a straight through
Ethernet cable)
Configuration Via Serial and Network Parameters
- DL-V3 with power cable
- User-supplied laptop with the Lantronix software, described below, installed
- Serial null-modem cable to connect from the laptop and switch between COM1 and
COM2 on the DL-V3. You can avoid switching if you have two serial connections on
your laptop and two null-modem cables. Also, if your laptop has only USB connectors,
you need a USB to serial adaptor between the null-modem cable and the laptop’s USB
connector.
- Sheilded CAT5 Ethernet cross-over cable (or use a switch with a straight through
Ethernet cable)
In both cases, first install the Com Port Redirector (CPR) Manager program onto the laptop you
intend to use with your DL-V3 from the Lantronix website at: http://www.lantronix.com/device-
networking/utilities-tools/.
Figure 39 below shows the two methods of physically providing an Ethernet connection between your
laptop and DL-V3. The top shows a direct connection using a sheilded CAT5 Ethernet cross-over
cable and the bottom shows two straight-through sheilded CAT5 Ethernet cables with a DSS-5+ port
