Host name

When entering a host name, use one of the following:

a direct IP (Internet Protocol) address in the form

www.xxx.yyy.zzz where www, xxx, yyy, and zzz are numbers from
000 to 255

an alias for the address. An alias is an alphanumeric string from

one to eight characters. The first character must be a letter and the
name is case–sensitive.

Remote station addressing

This section outlines valid address entries for a node connected to a
remote network.

An RSView32 system can communicate with nodes on remote DH,
DH+, or DH–485 networks when connected to:

a DH+ network using a KT–family card (KT, KT2, KTX, KTXD,

PCMK)

a TCP/IP network using an Ethernet

®

card

Remote DH or DH+ networks can be bridged by a 1785–KA
interface module or by a Pyramid Integrator

that has an RM or KA

module.

Remote DH–485 networks can be bridged by a 1785–KA5.
