Ethernet Connection Errors:
There are a number of network‐related error messages that can occur during the TCP/IP and
Ethernet setup process and operation:
"No available Achronix Bitporter products with matching serial number found
on local subnet."
The program attempted to connect to an Ethernet pod specifying a serial number (e.g.
“net40XXX”), and no Achronix Bitporter pod with a matching serial number was found on the
local subnet. Check the connection and ensure that the COMM LED has finished blinking
(after power‐up) before starting the software. If the pod’s TCP/IP settings were manually
configured, verify that the provided settings are correct. Verify with the System Administrator
that the pod is on the same local subnet as the PC attempting to connect. See
Chapter 4 – Using the Achronix STAPL Player
"No available Achronix Bitporter product found at supplied network address."
The program attempted to connect to an Ethernet pod specifying an IP address but no Bitporter
pod was found at that address. Check the connection and ensure that the COMM LED has
finished blinking (after power‐up) before starting the software. If the pod’s TCP/IP settings
were manually configured, verify that the provided settings are correct. If the pod is configured
to use DHCP, verify with the System Administrator that the network address is correct.
"Network device is not an Achronix Bitporter pod."
The program attempted to connect to a pod at the supplied address, but the hardware at that
location does not appear to be a Achronix Bitporter pod. Verify the IP address of the desired
pod and that the correct address was specified.
