The SGX 5150 units offer 1 or 2 serial ports which use standard RS232/RS485 interfaces. The
lines can be configured to operate in the following modes:
RS232
RS485 Full Duplex (also compatible with RS-422)
RS485 Half Duplex, with and without termination impedance
All serial settings such as Baud Rate, Parity, Data Bits, etc, apply to this line.
The line settings allow configuration of the serial line.
Note: The following section describes the steps to view and configure Line 1 settings;
these steps apply to other line instances of the SGX 5150 gateway.
Line Status and Configuration
View-only status information on the Line 1 - Statistics page displays line statistics including
information on bytes, queued bytes, breaks, flow control, parity errors, framing errors, overrun
errors, no Rx buffer errors, CTS input, RTS output, DSR input, and DTR output.
Authentication Type Select an HTTP authentication type. The different types offer various levels of
security, from the least to most secure:
None: no authentication necessary
Basic: encodes passwords using Base64
Digest: encodes passwords using MD5
When changing the parameters of Digest authentication, it is often best to close
and reopen the browser to ensure that it does not attempt to use cached
authentication information.
There is no real reason to create an authentication directive using None unless
you want to override a parent directive that uses some other Authentication
Type.
Click Submit when URI and Authentication Type is entered to submit it.
Delete Click to delete the existing configuration.
