Configure device firmware
The D20E firmware is a combination of program code and data stored in an embedded
computer platform. The firmware is stored in non-volatile memory.
The D20E modules are connected to the D20E LAN port and then configured with
DAPserver Studio V6.2.0-4 (or a later) version. For information on the LAN port connectors,
see section:
Network data communication on page 79.
DAPserver Studio device configuration tool
DAPserver Studio is a configuration tool for the D20E modules. which allows you to:
• Configure the D20E module for optimum performance.
• Map and translate D20E point values/status into the module server protocol, report
real-time data from the connected D20E device and execute control commands from
a local control point.
• Monitor D20E real-time data values, point states and system health information.
To change the module's configuration, use the DAPserver Studio Settings and Sync menu
options.
Terminal emulator
You can use either the PuTTY or the Tera Term terminal emulator as a connection interface
to access the D20E console USB interface. You can execute standard Linux commands
from the D20E console for setup and debugging. These terminal emulators can be
downloaded from:
• PuTTY: www.puttyorg.
•Tera Term: www.SourceForge.jp.
PuTTY and Tera Term are free, open-source terminal emulators which support serial
console and network terminal emulation with SSH encryption.
For information on the USB 2.0 connector, see section Console port on page 78.
