2 Configuration
Before you can begin using your PK70, the following configuration/setup is required:
1. Hardware setup
2. Network configuration
3. Serial port configuration
4. Operational configuration
You will need to tell your PK70 what type of serial interface you want to use, the network address you want your
PK70 to respond to, the serial data baud rate, and the TCP/IP listening port number.
2.1 Hardware Setup
1. Connect the NetBurner 1-to-4 UART Cable Adapter to theDB37 port on the rear panel of the PK70, and
connect the DB9 connectors to your serial device.
2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.
3. Connect the external power supply.
2.2 Network Configuration
The Hardware configuration steps described above must be completed correctly before the software configuration
can take place.
1. Run IPSetup.exe (by double clicking its icon). This program is located on the CD-ROM that came with
your PK70. To view the Advance Settings, click on the Advanced button (the button name will change to
Basic). In this example, I am using Uart 0 as my Monitor port (screen shot below).
2. Locate your PK70 in the "Select a Unit" pane by matching its MAC address. The MAC address is located
on the bottom of your PK70. If your PK70 device does not appear in the list box, verify the power, speed,
and link LEDs are illuminated, and click the Search Again button. If you are still unable to see your PK70,
remove power, correct any cabling errors, reapply power, and click the Search Again button. Note: IP
Setup uses a UDP broadcast protocol similar to BOOTP and will not operate through a router.
Important: IPSetup uses UDP port number 20034. Most firewall programs will prompt you to allow
a new application to use network services. If you cannot see your device in IPSetup, try disabling
your firewall. If this corrects the problem, you will need to add a rule to your firewall to allow
IPSetup to use port 20034. Since IPSetup uses UDP broadcasts, the PC must be on the same LAN as
the PK70 device.
3. If your network supports DHCP (factory default): The assigned IP Address will appear in the "Select a
Unit" pane. Write down this address. If your network does not support DHCP, configure the IP Address
and Network Mask fields as shown in the screen shot below. If you need help selecting values, please read
the "Selecting an IP Address" section at the end of this guide. After you have entered all of your values,
click the Set button in the center of the IP Setup window to configure your PK70 with its new parameters.
Note: If you do not click the Set button, your values will not be saved. If you have multiple NetBurner
