Overview
UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series products are easy to use. Simply install the drivers, connect the
UPort to your computer, plug in your serial devices, and you’re ready to go. Programming is NOT
required, and you do not need to worry about IRQs, configuring a board, power requirements, or
connection schemes.
UPort Series products are compliant with USB 1.1, and 2.0 specifications, and meet the 480 Mbps
high-speed requirement. Using your computer’s USB ports to connect serial devices reduces the
total cost of ownership, investment in hardware, and long term management and integration costs.
The UPort Series supports both bus power and external power via an adapter. Bus power is
adapted for laptop or workstation connections that support 500 mA output for USB devices.
External power is adapted for those USB hubs that can only produce 100 mA of current.

Chapter 2 Driver Installation

This chapter includes information about installing the UPort 1200/1400/1600 USB-to-Serial Hub.
We present the installation procedure for Windows 2000. The procedures for Windows XP/2003
(32 bit) and Windows XP/2003 (64 bit) are essentially the same as that for Windows 2000.
We recommend installing the UPort 1200/1400/1600 driver first, before connecting the UPort
1400/1600 USB-to-Serial Hub to your computer’s USB port.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
‰ USB Usage Limitations for UPort
‰ Installing the Driver
‰ Connecting the Hardware
¾ Connecting to the External Power Adaptor
¾ Connecting to a Serial Device
¾ LED Indicators
¾ Adjustable Pull High/low Registors for the RS-485 Port

UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series User’s Manual Driver Installation

USB Usage Limitations for UPort


1. A maximum of 4 UPorts can be connected to each host. Connecting more than 4 UPorts will
cause system resources to become low and unstable.
2. We recommend connecting the UPort directly to the host USB port. If you need to use an
external USB hub, only the first level is recommended.
3. In general, there are 2 types of USB hub:
i. High power hubs require an external power adaptor, and provide 500 mA of power to
the USB port.
ii. Low power hubs get power from the host PC, and provide 100 mA of power to the USB
port.

The following table shows what type of USB hub should be used with UPort 1200/1400/1600
products.

4. Although UPort can operate using USB 1.1, to get the best and most stable performance, we
recommend using a USB 2.0 host controller or HUB.

Installing the Driver


1. Run the Setup program located on the UPort 1200/1400/1600 Document and Software
CD-ROM. Click Next to Start installing the driver.

4. The next window that opens cautions you that although this software has not passed Windows
logo testing, the driver has already been tested and shown that it can support Windows OS.
Click Continue Anyway to proceed.

5. Click Finish to complete the driver installation.

Connecting the Hardware


Before you connect the UPort via USB cable, we recommend that you install the driver first. UPort
1250 supports bus power, UPort 1250I supports external power, UPort 1400 supports both bus and
external power, UPort 1600 needs external power. If you want to use bus power with UPort 1400,
switch the DIP switch to bus when you connect the USB cable between the host PC and UPort
1400. We cover Connecting to the External Power Adaptor, Connecting to a Serial Device,
and LED Indicators in this chapter.

Connecting to the External Power Adaptor


For UPort 1250I/1600-8 Series, we provide the power adaptor to connect from the host PC to
UPort. For UPort 1600-16 Series, we provide the power cord to connect from the host PC to
UPort.

UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series User’s Manual Driver Installation

If the power is properly supplied, the Active LED will glow a solid green.
Buzzer (UPort 1400 and 1600 only)
UPort will sound the buzzer twice when the power is turned on. You will also hear the buzzer
when using the Locate function on the driver property page.

Connecting to a Serial Device


Connect the serial cable between UPort 1200/1400/1600 and the serial device. UPort
1200/1400/1600’s serial ports use the RS-232 or RS-422/485 interface to transmit data. The port
uses a standard male DB9 pin assignment.

LED Indicators

Adjustable Pull High/low Resistors for the RS-485 Port


In some critical environments, you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection
of serial signals. When using termination resistors, it is important to set the pull high/low resistors
correctly so that the electrical signal is not corrupted. The UPort uses DIP switches to set the pull
high/low resistor values for each serial port.
To set the pull high/low resistors to 150 KΩ, make sure both of the assigned DIP switches are in
the OFF position. This is the default setting.
To set the pull high/low resistors to 1 KΩ, make sure both of the assigned DIP switches are in
the ON position.

ATTENTION
Do not use the 1 KΩ setting on the UPort when using the RS-232 interface. Doing so will
degrade the RS-232 signals and shorten the maximum allowed communication distance.

The Ports Configuration page settings are described below.

Auto Enumerating COM Number


If the “Auto Enumerating COM Number” checkbox is checked, COM numbers will be
assigned automatically and in sequence to the ports. E.g., COM3 to Port 1, COM4 to Port 2,
etc.
If you do not enable this check box, only the first COM Number will be changed to new COM
number list in the drop-down list box. Enable this function if you want to configure several
ports with sequential numbers.

Friendly Name
Setting Factory Default Necessity
1 to 20 characters
MOXA UPort COM Optional
(E.g., UPort 1610-8)
Friendly name is specially designed to allow easy identification of the serial devices that are
connected to UPort’s serial port.

UART FIFO
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Enable/Disable Enable Required
UPort’s serial ports provide a 128-byte FIFO both in the Tx and Rx directions. Disable UART
FIFO setting when your serial device does not have a FIFO to prevent data loss during
communication. For a slow serial device, we recommend you disable FIFO to improve the
latency. If you want to use XON/XOFF flow control, we recommend disabling UART FIFO.

2-15
UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series User’s Manual Driver Installation

Tx Mode
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Hi-Performance,
Hi-Performance Required
Classical
To improve write performance, you can select the Hi-Performance mode. Under classical
mode, the driver will not notify the user’s program that Tx is completed until all Tx data has
been sent out from the UPort; this mode will cause lower throughput. If you want to ensure
that all data is sent out before further processing, classical mode is recommended. Classical
mode is the same as the COM Port behavior: The WriteFile() call will only finish when all
queued data are sent out.

Fast Flush
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Enable/Disable Enable Required
1. For some applications, the user’s program will use the Win32 PurgeComm() function
before it reads or writes data. With our design, after the program uses this PurgeComm()
function, the UPort driver will keep querying UPort’s firmware several times to make
sure that there is really no data queued in the UPort firmware buffer, rather than just
flushing the local buffer. This kind of design is used because of some special
considerations. However, it might take more time (about several hundred milliseconds)
than a native COM1, because it needs to work via Ethernet. This is why the native COM
ports on the motherboard can work fast with this function call, but UPort requires much
more time.
2. To begin with, make sure there are some PurgeComm() functions being used in your
application program. In this kind of situation, you might find that your UPort exhibits a
much poorer operation performance than when using the native COM1 port. Once you
have enabled the Fast Flush function, you can check to see if there has been an
improvement in performance.
3. By default, the optional Fast Flush function is enabled, the UPort driver will work faster
with PurgeComm().
4. Win32 Function PurgeComm() with PURGE_TXCLEAR will clear all queued Tx data.
But for some applications, it will call this function for each transaction and result in low
throughput. To avoid this, you can enable this function. The driver will only clear the data
queued in the local buffer; it will not send firmware through the USB to clear the data
queued in the firmware buffer.

Advance Settings
COM Preserver – Driver Setting Management
UPort provides one special function to help you manage the UPort settings. In the general case,
you need write down all the settings including COM number to prevent them from being lost.
In some applications, to clone multiple systems you also need to worry about how to clone the
COM Port settings. Using the UPort COM Preserver function, you just need to save all the
settings into UPort device directly– just like a USB Mass Storage device. You do not need to
record it using additional paper or disk. If your host crashes, you can just install the driver into
new host, plug the original UPort and click the Restore button to restore all settings back very
quickly.

NOTE If you want to use these settings in another PC, be sure the PC has a free COM port available.
Otherwise, the new settings will copy over the settings of a COM port that is already in use.

y Save
Save all settings to UPort.
