4. Introduction
The ARKEL Vision enables the user to monitor an ARL-500 controlled elevator via Internet or LAN
from remote locations and in case of need, gives the ability to modify its parameters.

5. Installation Steps
The ARL-500 Remote Control & Monitoring System consists of these main components:

5. An ARL-500 Lift Control Panel


6. An ARKEL ETCM remote connection module
7. A personal computer running on Windows XP or Vista operating System
ENGLISH

8. A local area network Ethernet connection node (i.e. a modem)

5.1. Installation of Remote Connection Module

connection. The connection to ARL-500 control panel is made via CANbus. And the
connection to internet or LAN is made with only an ethernet cable from ETCM module to
network device.

5.2. Installation of PC Windows software (ARKEL Vision)

- Please download the ARKEL Vision software setup file from ARKEL website.
- Open the contents of package to a local folder in your computer.
- Run “setup.exe”
- Follow on-screen instructions to install the software.

5.3. Installation of Network Enabler Administrator software

- Please download the Network Enabler Administrator file from ARKEL website.
- Open the contents of package to a local folder in your computer.
- Run the setup file
- Follow on-screen instructions to install the software.

ENGLISH
5.4. Configuring the ARKEL-ETCM remote connection module

The ETCM board works as a TCP server. It must be assigned a static IP and a TCP port
number to listen for connections.

Assigning a static IP and TCP port to the ETCM board:

TÜRKÇE
Your network specialist must first decide a suitable IP number and a TCP port number to be
assigned to your ETCM board. (In this document, we suppose the IP number 192.168.1.13
and port number 4001 will be used as an example)

Before configuration, the ETCM board must be connected to the network and powered. Also
the DIP switches must be set to “configuration mode” position. For this, please follow these
steps:

5. Connect the socket indicated by CAN-0 to the ARL-500 Controller Car-CANbus by the
supplied CANbus cable.

6. Connect the socket indicated by NET to your ethernet switch,hub or modem by a


standard ethernet cable. When connected properly, the 10M or the 100M led should light
up depending on your ethernet speed.

7. To go into “configuration mode”, move all 4 DIP-switches on ETCM to ON position


(up). And press the “Reset” button on ETCM.

8. The 5 leds on the ETCM board (CPU, CON, RDY, CAN0, CAN1) should start to blink.
This means that the ETCM board is in “configuration mode”.

To assign the IP (192.168.1.13 in our example) to the ETCM board, you will need to use the
Network Enabler Administrator software which was installed in 2.3. (Start / Programs /
Network Enabler Administrator / Network Enabler Administrator)

▪ If the ETCM board is connected properly, it will be discovered by the software as in the
following picture:

ENGLISH
TÜRKÇE
▪ If more than one ETCM are being used, Network Enabler Administrator lists all of the
network enablers. Code numbers listed in the "MAC Address" column are written on the
ETCM boards also. You can determine the specific ETCM board via these codes.

▪ Select the discovered ETCM board and click “Configuration / Configure” menu item.

▪ Select the “Network” tab and make the following changes:


ARKEL 27 ARKEL Vision

- Click on “Modify” checkbox above the “IP Address” textbox and enter “192.168.1.13” in
the textbox.
- Click on “Modify” checkbox under the “IP Address” textbox and enter the local IP address
of your modem in the “Gateway” textbox. (In this example IP number “192.168.1.1” is used).

5.5. Configuring your network equipment (modem / firewall)

If the ETCM board will be used only inside your network (LAN), it is sufficient to assign it a
static internal IP number and a TCP port number.
If it will be accessed from Internet (out of your LAN), your modem and firewall must also
be configured so as to allow and redirect the incoming TCP traffic from the specific port
(port 4001 in our example) to the internal IP of the ETCM board.
This is usually done from the configuration console supplied by your modem, usually under
the items “NAT (network address translation) settings” or “Port forwarding settings”.

Please note: As the configuration of every modem differs from each other,
ARKEL cannot give support about the details of configuration of your specific
ENGLISH

modem / firewall. You will need to contact a network specialist or the


manufacturer of your modem to get support on configuring your modem and
firewall.
How to test your network configuration:
To check if your modem / firewall is configured properly, you can use the following
procedure (for Windows XP):
- Click Start / Run
TÜRKÇE

- Enter “cmd” in the textbox and click OK


- In the command screen, type “telnet 192.168.1.13 4001” and press enter.

When you press enter, if the screen goes blank and there are no messages on the screen, your
network configuration is done properly.
If you receive the message “Connecting 192.168.1.13…Unable to connect to host:
Connection refused”, you must review your modem / firewall connections.
In case the above mentioned network connection test passes but you still have no
connection, please check the following settings from Network Enabler Administrator:
Serial settings page:
Baud rate: 57600
Parity: None
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None

5.6. Defining your ETCM module in ARKEL Vision

ARKEL Vision can connect to multiple ETCM boards simultaneously. But to be able to
connect, it must be given the IP number and TCP port number. The following steps describe
how to accomplish this:

Launch the ARKEL Vision by clicking Start > Programs > Arkel > ARKEL Vision > Start
ARKEL Vision.

You will see the following screen:

ENGLISH
TÜRKÇE
The window on the left is the list of defined elevators. At first run, there is only one item
“Sample Elevator Setting” in the list. It is only added as an example and you can delete it by

modifiable.

When you click on the “Save” button, your elevator will be added to the list:

Now your elevator is ready to be monitored.

item that you want to connect.

A child window will be opened as shown below:

ENGLISH
TÜRKÇE

Click on the “Connect” button to connect.

When a connection is established, the progress bar in the bottom-right corner of the window will
start to fill. (If the connection cannot be established for the first time, please try again a few
times as the board resets itself in regular intervals when not connected and is unresponsive
during the moments of reset)
