Download 9210B Xlite Data Logger

Use defaults: Check this if you wish to specify custom values for the Redirector service URL or
port number – otherwise the settings for the Sutron Redirector service will be used.
Troubleshooting:
If you are unable to access the Redirector service, check to make sure your user name and
password were specified correctly. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, check with your network
administrator that you have rights to access redirector.sutron.com on port 80. If your
organization blocks non-Web access on port 80, you may also try specifying the URL
redirector.sutron.com and port 23 under Server Settings.
Preparing the 9210 to work with XTerm
The 9210 is configured at the factory to communicate with XTerm on its COM1 serial port at
115,200 baud. Connect a standard RS-232 DB9 cable between the PC and the 9210. A M-M
gender changer and a Null Modem are necessary to connect 9210 to the PocketPC.
The program in the 9210 responsible for communicating with XTerm is remote.exe. When the
9210 starts up, it will check for an autoexec.bat file in the \flash disk folder. If an autoexec.bat
file is not found the system will automatically run remote.exe on COM 1. If the file is found, the
system will execute the contents of autoexec.bat. In this case, remote.exe will only run if there is
a line in the file to run it.
In the event that a system has an autoexec.bat file that does not run remote.exe and it is needed.
Connect a terminal program to com1, (set to 115200, 8N1), apply power to the unit and hold
down CTRL C (ctrl key and C key at same time). This will bypass the autoexec.bat file and
always run remote.exe from the \windows directory. Once this is done, a new autoexec.bat may
be transferred to the unit, using XTerm. NOTE: this procedure will not run Xpert.exe, so
connecting with XTerm will show a blank screen.
Operating XTerm
When XTerm communicates with a 9210 that has user accounts setup, a username and password
must be supplied to gain access. When this happens, simply enter a valid username and
password.
When XTerm starts, it will look similar to the window below, with the left portion displaying the
contents of the 9210. The entire screen of the PocketPC display shows the contents of the 9210.
Click (or tap in the case of the PocketPC) in the 9210 portion of the display and the software will
respond accordingly. The only exception to this is on the PocketPC: tap-and-hold the stylus
against the screen for a few seconds to display XTerm’s main menu. The options on this menu
are the same as those provided by the buttons on the right-hand side of the desktop version.
