The FMx configurator you have to set parameters for COM1 or COM2 (depends on which COM port you are using) in global parameters window. You have to modify the server sittings to you PC IP and your TCP port.

In this step we need to use the terminal log.  When you want to send a message from FMx 640 to the server, write it in Terminal but change your com port and select port which is assigned for COM1/COM2.

In this mode link with an external device for example PC using text messages can be established. We can apply this scenario on FMx640 or FMx125 which have to be connected to the external device through RS232 or RS485. Any string of data coming to device via RS232 or RS485 will be routed to the server ''(if the link is currently active)''. Messages that are exchanged between FMx device and server, have to be packed in Codec.12 format and will receive to the Hercules receiver successfully.
