NPort 5100A Series Configuring NPort Administrator
COM Mapping
Windows Administration Suite comes with Windows Real COM drivers. After you install NPort Administration
Suite, there are two ways to set up the NPort 5100A serial port as your host’s remote COM port.
The first way is with On-line COM Mapping. On-line COM Mapping will check to make sure that the NPort
5100A is connected correctly to the network and then install the driver on the host computer.
The second way is with Off-line COM Installation, without first connecting the NPort 5100A to the network.
Off-line COM Mapping can decrease the system integrator’s effort by solving different field problems. Via
off-line installation, users can first process software installation for the host, and then install the NPort 5100A
to different fields.
Use the following procedure to map COM ports:
1. On-line COM Mapping:
Connect the NPort 5100A to the network Set NPort 5100A to the proper IP address Map COMs to your
host Apply Change.
2. Off-line COM Mapping:
Map COMs to your host Apply Change Connect the NPort 5100A to the network Configure NPort
5100A’s IP address.
On-line COM Mapping
1. Broadcast Search for NPort 5100As on the network.
2. Select the COM Mapping function group.
3. Add the target to which you would like to map COM ports.
