The users PC must be set up as follows:-
1. Install the MOVAComm URL Handler distributed with the PCSCOOT software
version 29.0 or later. This includes the TRL MOVAComm application.
2. Ensure the PC is connected on the network and has routing access to the
outstation. Please refer to the network system administrator for assistance as
each different network can have it’s own configurations for routing and firewalls.
MOVA uses TCP on the following port numbers:-
MOVA stream 1 – IP port 12001
MOVA stream 2 – IP port 12002
MOVA stream 3 – IP port 12003
MOVA stream 4 – IP port 12004
If the outstation IP address is known, then MOVAComm application can be launched
manually from a DOS prompt using the command format:-
MOVAComm.exe /pcmova TCP <IP-address>:12001
Where <IP-address> is the IP address of the outstation
e.g.
MOVAComm.exe /pcmova TCP 172.16.100.96:12001
The command can be pasted into a shortcut for ease of use.
After a short delay, the MOVA unit will ask for the password to validate access. The
password is defaulted to ‘AVOMIN’ although it can be changed.
Once the password has been accepted, the MOVA unit communicates remotely in
exactly the same way as it does locally.
To end communications, select the ‘FI – Finish’ option from the MOVA main menu.
Then press F10 to close the MOVAComm application.
