 |
| Figure: Basic Settings |
Network Settings
-
IP Address Method- There are two options for user to choose.
- Use the Follow IP Address - Static IP mode and the module uses the IP information showed on the WIZSE configuration tools (Default)
- Get IP Address from DHCP Server - DHCP mode and the module IP address from the DHCP Server
-
IP Address- Module's IP Address. Default: 192.168.1.88
-
Subnet Mask - Module's Subnet Mask. Default: 255.255.255.0
-
Gateway - Module's Gateway IP address. Default: 192.168.1.1
-
DNS Server - DNS Server IP address. Default: 114.114.114.114
Note 2: The above IP information text box will display the DHCP assigned information when user has selected DHCP mode.
Additional Functions
-
Show Debug Message - Display module debugging information. Checking this option will print the module debugging information from the serial port. It is enabled by default.
-
Echo in AT Mode - Enable the AT command echo function. The echo function means that the W5500S2E module returns the input command exactly as it is to the serial port and then displays it on the serial port software interface. When users use the serial port software to configure the module, enabling the echo function helps users configure it conveniently. However, when using single-chip microcontrollers or other embedded devices to configure the module, enabling the echo function will cause problems. In this case, the echo function must be turned off. By default, this option is checked to enable the echo function.
-
Device Name - Set/Display the module name. It must consist of numbers, letters, or a combination of both, and cannot be empty. Case sensitivity is applied. The maximum length is 15 bytes. The default is the module name.
-
Use NETBIOS - Enable the NetBIOS function option. When checked, the NetBIOS function will be enabled. By default, it is not enabled. After enabling the NetBIOS function, users can directly access the built-in web page of W5500S2E series by entering "http:// module name" in the browser address bar.
-
Password - The current password for the module will not be displayed. User could change a new password directly without entering the previous password. The default password is "admin".
-
Entering Mode after power on or reset - The list box beneath password section. User could choose AT command or Data mode (Transparent transmission) after the module has turned on or reset. The default mode is AT command mode.
-
Embedded Web Server Port - Set/Display the port number of the Web server of W5500S2E series. The default is 80. It is not recommended to change it. The range of values is 0 to 65,535. If it is not set to 80, then it is required to add the web server port to the browser address bar. For example: 192.168.1.88:8000.
Channel1
As shown in the following figure, these are the TCP and Serial setups for W5500S2E series module, which is divided into four parts for explanation.

-
Data Bit: Displays/sets the data bits of the serial port. The default is 8. It can be set to 7 or 8.
-
Parity: Displays/sets the parity bit of the serial port. The default is NONE. It can be set to NONE, ODD, or EVEN.
-
Stop Bit: Displays/sets the stop bits of the serial port. The default is 1. It can be set to 1 or 2.
-
Flow Control: Serial port flow control function configuration. The default is NONE. It can be set to NONE or CTS/RTS.
Serial Data Packing Condition
-
by Nagle Waiting Time (ms) - This option features a package that serial port input data into Ethernet packets by time interval. The default value is 0 (no packetization) and the maximum value is 60000 ms.
-
by Data Length (byte) - This option features a package that packages the serial port input data into an Ethernet package by length. The default value is 0 (no packetization) and the maximum value is 2048 bytes.
Connection
-
Work As - It comes with a List box to choose the socket operation mode of the module. It includes TCP Server, TCP Client and UDP mode. The default socket operation mode is TCP Server.
-
Local Port - Displays/sets the local port number. The default is 5000 and the range is from 0 to 65535.
-
Bind Local Port - Binds the local port number. When checked, it enables the function of binding the local port number. This is effective when the module runs in TCP Client mode.
-
Remote Host - Displays/sets the IP address/domain name of the remote host. The text box will be unlocked when the module is operating in TCP Client and UDP modes. The default is 192.168.1.99 and the text box is locked. If this is set to the remote host's domain name, the module will automatically perform domain name resolution. The maximum length of the domain name is 32 characters.
-
Remote Port - Displays/sets the port number of the remote host. The text box will be unlocked when the module is operating in TCP Client and UDP modes. The default is 5000 and the text box is locked. The range is 0 to 65535.
Note: Some protocols in the Ethernet protocol have default port numbers. These port numbers should be avoided. The default occupied port numbers can be found in the appendix.
Communication
-
Clean Data Buffer when TCP Connected - Whether to clear the serial port Buffer after connection establishment. This option will only be activated when it is enabled (checked) and the module is working in TCP modes. The default is disabled (unchecked).
-
Connect TCP Server when - In TCP client mode, the user could choose the priority for TCP client to connect to the Server. It can be set as "Power on" to establish the connection immediately after "power-on" or wait until "Serial data received" to establish the connection after receiving data from the serial port. The default is power-on and locked.
-
Request Admin Password - This feature is activates the connection verification password. It is effective when the device is operating in TCP Server mode. If the checkbox is checked, the client sends a connection request and establishes a connection in TCP Server mode, the client needs to send the device password to communicate with the module. Otherwise, the connection will be disconnected. The default is disabled (unchecked) and locked.
-
Auto Message - Sends information after connection establishment. It is effective in TCP mode. You can choose "No message" to not send information (default), "Send Device Name" to send the device name, "Send MAC Address" to send the device MAC address, or "Send IP Address" to send the device IP address.
-
Inactivity Time (ms) - Sets/Displays the time interval for timeout disconnection. This option is effective when the device is in TCP mode. The range of values is from 0 to 60000 in ms. The default value is 0 (this function is disabled).
-
