The simplest and most reliable way to set the DS up for TCP/IP communication is using the Connection Wizard .
• | Click Start > Programs > Tibbo > Connection Wizard: |


• | Select Configure a Device Server for direct communications with an application on this PC. Click Next. |

• | Click Select from the list. |

• | Select the DS you would like to work with. If its IP address is invalid (it says so on the status bar), click Change IP. |

• | Having made sure the IP of the device is correct, select the DS in the list, click Select to go back to the Wizard, and click Next. |

• | Select Your application. Click Next. |

• | Select TCP/IP transport protocol. Don't change the port, but remember it's 1001. You'll need this for later. |


• | This is just a summary screen. Click Finish. |
Now we know the IP address and port for this device server, and have set it so it would listen for incoming TCP connections. On to the next phase:
We resume from where we left off on Setting Correct Parameters on Startup . To establish a TCP/IP connection with the Device Server, open the drop-down titled Connect using , and select TCP/IP (Winsock) :

Next, enter the IP address and the port number we got earlier from the DS Manager:

Now click OK .
The following screen should appear:

Congratulations! You're connected. Continue to Sending Commands To the Device Server or Using HyperTerminal to Test a Connection .
