Teledyne GFC-7000E - Trace CO2 Analyzer - Manual (Page 101)

Model GFC7000E Instruction Manual Operating Instructions

6.10.9.1. Ethernet Card COM2 Communication Modes and Baud Rate
The firmware on board the Ethernet card automatically sets the communication modes and baud
rate (115 200 kBaud ) for the COM2 port. Once the Ethernet option is installed and activated,
the COM2 submenu is replaced by a new submenu, INET. This submenu is used to manage and
configure the Ethernet interface with your LAN or Internet Server(s).
6.10.9.2. Configuring the Ethernet Interface Option using DHCP
The Ethernet option for you MGFC7000E uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to
automatically configure its interface with your LAN. This requires your network servers also be
running DHCP. The analyzer will do this the first time you turn the instrument on after it has been
physically connected to your network. Once the instrument is connected and turned on it will
appear as an active device on your network without any extra set up steps or lengthy procedures.
Should you need to, the following Ethernet configuration properties are viewable via the analyzer’s
front panel.

must have the same subnet mask. Any
transmissions sent devices with different assumed
to be outside of the LAN and are routed through
gateway computer onto the Internet.
TCP PORT 3000 Editable

which the instrument is addressed by terminal
emulation software, such as Internet or Teledyne
Instruments’ APICOM.
