The Edgeport Utility Program

For all Windows Operating Systems

The Edgeport configuration utility program (edgeport.exe) allows you to manage the serial ports of your Edgeport product. Note that with Windows NT you must have administrative privileges in order to change the COM port settings. For more information, see the Support section at

www.ionetworks.com.

The General tab in this utility allows you to do the following:

•

Information - Check the manufacturing information pertaining to your device.


•

Configure - Reassign the physical port on your device to any available Windows COM port number from 1 to 255 and give your device a user friendly Device Name. This capability is particularly helpful if you have more than one device.

•

Port Flags - Configure performance options and special functionality on a per-port basis.

Industrial Settings:

For the Edgeport/4s MEI and Edgeport/8s MEI only: see Port Flags on page 6.

Low Latency: (930 based Edgeport only)

Normally the UART will interrupt when the receiver has been idle for 4 character times. (For example 4ms at 9600) As long as data is being received the UART will continue to buffer them until its internal FIFO is full (~56 bytes). This flag causes the Edgeport to poll the RX FIFO for received bytes. If any bytes are available they will be sent to the driver without any delay.


Remap Baud: (All operating systems - 930 and TI based Edgeport)

Setting the baud rate to 1200 baud will result in 230400 baud

Ignore Flush: (Windows NT/2K/XP 930 and TI)

If an application sends IRP_MJ_FLUSH_BUFFERS it will be ignored.

Excerpt from Microsoft documentation:

Drivers of devices with internal caches for data and drivers that maintain internal buffers for data must handle this request.

When Sent

Receipt of a flush request indicates that the driver should flush the device's cache or its internal buffer, or, possibly, should discard the data in its internal buffer.

Operation

The driver transfers any data currently cached in the device or held in the driver's internal buffer(s) before completing the flush request. The driver of an input-only device that buffers data internally might simply discard the currently buffered device data before completing the flush IRP, depending on the nature of its device.

Fast Reads:

This flag is used when an application requires that a read complete immediately. In the read immediate case, the Edgeport driver will send a request to the Edgeport device asking for any buffered data to be sent up. This buffered data will be included when the read completes. If this flag is set, the driver will not query the Edgeport device for additional data.

Fast Writes: (All operating systems - 930 and TI based Edgeport)

When an application sends a write to the driver, by default the Edgeport driver will wait until all data has been transmitted out of the Edgeport device before completing the write. When the Fast

Writes flag is set, we complete the write even if data is still buffered in the driver and the Edgeport device.

Ignore Tx Purge:

The IOCTL_SERIAL_PURGE request cancels the specified requests and deletes data from the specified buffers. The purge request can be used to cancel all read requests and write requests and to delete all data from the read buffer and the write buffer.

When the Ignore Tx Purge flag is set the SERIAL_PURGE_TXCLEAR command will be ignored.

The function will not purge the write buffer.

Disable Plug & Play: (Windows 2k/XP only)

Do not let the serial port enumerator detect devices plugged into the Edgeport.

Timer Logic: (Windows 9x only)

If application uses PortSetReadCallBack(), the notification routine will only be called when the number of bytes in the receive buffer is greater then the RX trigger. The Microsoft serial VxD also implements a timer that will trigger and call the notification routine if some amount of data is available in the RX buffer but no new data has been received for ~200ms (receiver is no longer active).

We do not enable this behavior by default because of the nature of Edgeport buffering. But if you set the flag we will complete the read when we detect ~200 ms no activity.

Here is a comment from the code:


If the receiver is active then do not complete this read. The problem is that the Edgeport buffers the RX bytes and we poll the driver. If we do not receive any bytes in 200ms we may report an erroneous event even if there are available bytes in the Edgeport device or driver.

•

Test Ports - Perform a confidence test on the internal workings of the serial ports..


The Version tab allows you to check the file information pertaining to the software.

The Advanced tab allows you to do the following:

•

Uninstall the drivers.

•

Enable Event Logging – Place event messages in system event log.

•

Configure how COM ports will be assigned.

The driver supports COM port number assignment in two ways:

1. Assign COM ports based on converter serial number.

This is the default setting. In this mode, the driver uses the serial number of each converter to uniquely identify it, and the COM port assignments for a given converter are based on its serial number. No matter which physical USB port a converter is plugged into, it will maintain its assigned COM port numbers.

2. Assign COM ports based on physical USB port.

In this mode, the driver identifies a converter based on the physical USB port it is plugged into. This effectively assigns COM port numbers to physical USB ports. No matter which converter is plugged into a given USB port, it will use the COM port numbers assigned to that

USB port. This permits a converter to be to be replaced with a new unit, and, although the new unit has a different serial number, it will receive the same COM port assignments as the old unit because they were both plugged into the same USB port.

When using this mode, converters are identified not by their serial number, but by a 2-7 digit number that identifies which USB port it is plugged into.


Understanding Hubs

Hubs, critical components in the USB architecture, are wiring concentrators that enable the attachment of multiple devices, thus converting a single attachment point into multiple attachment points. USB architecture allows a cascaded multiple hub configuration with certain power limitations (explained later in this section). See figure 1.

PC

Host

Hubport

Edgeport Edgeport Hubport

Edgeport bu s-powered hub scanner joystick mouse

Figure 1: Example of a Typical Hub Configuration

Each hub has an upstream port, connecting to the host, and multiple downstream ports, connecting to downstream devices, possibly including other hubs. A hub can detect attachment and detachment of downstream devices and enable and monitor the distribution of the power to downstream devices via their integral hardware and the operating system.

Each USB device reports its power requirements to the operating system, which then enables and disables the device as a function of its power requirements and the amount of available power. High powered devices typically need to be connected to a self-powered hub, such as the

Hubport, which obtains power from its external power supply and provides up to 500 mA for each downstream port. Only low powered devices, such as a mouse, can be connected to a buspowered hub, which obtains power from its upstream host and provides up to 100 mA for each downstream port.

Due to the limited available power for bus-powered hubs, cascading two bus-powered hubs is an illegal topology, and devices connected to the second hub will not function. USB specifications

limit the connection of a bus-powered hub to a self-powered hub or host only.

According to the USB Specification, the maximum limit of hubs cascaded in series cannot exceed five. In other words, you may have a maximum of five hubs between any device and the host.

This does NOT mean that the maximum number of hubs in a system is five. Indeed, up to seven hubs can be connected parallel at any given level. You must tally both external and embedded hubs when counting downstream hubs.
