NPort W2150/2250 Plus Series User’s Manual Installing and Configuring the Software
11-19
In this example, 16 TTY ports will be added, all with IP 192.168.3.4, with data ports from 4001 to
4016 and command ports from 966 to 981.
Removing Mapped TTY Ports
After logging in as root, enter the directory /usr/lib/npreal2/driver and then execute mxdelsvr to
delete a server. The syntax of mxdelsvr is:
mxdelsvr [IP Address]
Example:
# cd /usr/lib/npreal2/driver
# ./mxdelsvr 192.168.3.4
The following actions are performed when executing mxdelsvr:
1. Modify npreal2d.cf.
2. Remove the relevant TTY ports in directory /dev.
3. Restart the driver.
If the IP address is not provided in the command line, the program will list the installed servers
and total ports on the screen. You will need to choose a server from the list for deletion.
Removing Linux Driver Files
A utility is included that will remove all driver files, mapped TTY ports, and unload the driver.
Enter the directory /usr/lib/npreal2/driver and execute mxuninst to uninstall the driver. This
program will perform the following actions:
1. Unload the driver.
2. Delete all files and directories in /usr/lib/npreal2.
3. Delete directory /usr/lib/npreal2.
4. Modify the system initializing script file.
UNIX Fixed TTY Drivers
A fixed TTY driver is provided that will map UNIX host TTY ports to NPort serial ports. Once the
mapping has been set up, UNIX users and applications can connect to an NPort serial port as if it
were a local TTY port. This driver has been designed and tested for the majority of UNIX systems.
Please check http://www.moxa.com for the latest UNIX systems support.
Installing the UNIX Driver
1. Log in to UNIX and create a directory for the MOXA TTY. To create a directory named
/usr/etc, execute the command:
# mkdir –p /usr/etc
2. Copy moxattyd.tar to the directory you created. For the /usr/etc directory, you would execute
the following commands:
# cp moxattyd.tar /usr/etc
# cd /usr/etc
