5.7.5.2.3 NETWORK (F3)
MAIN MENU | SYSTEM MENU | REMOTE INTERFACE |
The Network function key opens a screen allowing the user to configure the Network port settings.
The network port implements a 10/100 Base T Ethernet network interface. It supports the protocols TCP/IP,
DHCP, and HTML. The port is disabled by default and must be enabled to be used. The user may select DHCP
or specify a static network address.
The network port may be used for remote control of the Super-Thermometer by a PC and interface to network
software such as Telnet or a COM port redirector driver. In this mode, the network port accepts a raw TCP
connection on TCP port number 5025.
The network port also provides a simple HTML web page interface to the Super-Thermometer to allow remote
monitoring via a web browser.
The following are the configuration fields:
HARDWARE MAC - shows the hardware MAC address of the network port. It cannot be changed.
DHCP ENABLE - determines whether the static IP address is used or is assigned dynamically by a server.
The default option is ON (dynamic).
CAUTION: When DHCP is enabled, do not remove the Ethernet cable and turn the power off. The cable
needs to remain plugged into the unit while cycling the power.
IP ADDRESS - specifies the network port’s IP address when DHCP is OFF, or shows the dynamically as-
signed IP address when DHCP is set to ON.
GATEWAY - specifies the gateway server’s IP address to be used when DHCP is OFF.,
