11. The NPort 5100s that were reconnected, and are now “Alive,” will be shown in black color.
Port Monitor
The process described here is the same as in the previous “Monitor” section. The only difference is that you can
select more items under Port Monitor than under Monitor.
Select or de-select Monitor Items. Use the single arrowhead buttons to move highlighted items from one box
to the other. Use the double arrowhead buttons to move all items in one box to the other.
COM Mapping
Windows Administration Suite comes with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP Real COM drivers. After you install
NPort 5100 Administration Suite, there are two ways to set up the NPort 5100 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 5100
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 5100 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 5100 to
different fields.
