Thank you for your purchase of the Kurt J. Lesker Model 615 Ethernet digital vacuum gauge. This addendum will demonstrate how to… • • • Monitor and communicate with your vacuum gauge from a remote computer Set the IP address to one compatible with your network (if needed) Configure recent versions of Java so the applet can be properly displayed The KJL615 digital vacuum gauge with Ethernet is equipped with a port that, when plugged into your switch with a standard network Cat5e cable, will enable you to observe the gauge’s vacuum readings via a browser window from any computer connected to your network, which is especially useful for processes in which the gauge and product must be isolated or contained. There are two ways to monitor the gauge: via standard RS232/serial connection to your computer, or via Ethernet. Please note that the gauge cannot be monitored by RS232 and Ethernet concurrently. If both are plugged in, neither will work reliably. To read via RS232, first connect the RS232 cable included with your gauge to your computer. Then load the software included with your gauge and run the included program, Putty. This screen will

Select Serial, and note which COM port your RS232 cable is using (in this case, COM1). This can be determined by accessing Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers, which will display a list of all devices connected to your computer via USB. Connect the RS232 cable to the connector on the back of your gauge. Power up the gauge, and click Open on the Putty menu. Putty will display the gauge’s reading about once a second. Consult the Putty user guide for assistance in changing the readout font and size. The gauge readings may also be monitored remotely via Ethernet. Start by...

Highlight the XPort device and click Assign IP.

X Assignment Method Would you like to specify the IP address or should the unit get its settings from a server out on the network? O Obtain an IP address automatically (•) Assign a specific IP address TCP/IP Tutorial Obtain an IP address, Netmask and gateway from your network administrator. For smaii Locally managed networks, use an unused IP address, a Gateway of 255.255.255.0 and Gateway address of x.x.x.1 (the same first three numbers as your unused IP address.

Click Assign, and the IP address of your gauge has been successfully changed. Enabling Ethernet & Remote Applet Viewing with Current Versions of Java With recent updates, Java has increased its security settings and rendered the gauge ethernet applet inaccessible. In the past, a third-party Java applet signed with an expired certificate would show an “Untrusted” error message and block the applet from running, but the user could continue loading the applet after the security prompt. Now, all applets deemed “untrusted” by Java are automatically blocked with no way to override. All Kurt J....
