GATEWAY
Specifies the Gateway Address the interface will use, for example:
010.001.001.001.
SNMP TRAP
DESTINATION
Specifies the network IP Address where SNMP traps will be sent when SNMP service
is installed on your receiver. If zeroed, no traps are sent.
IP DISCOVERY
Sets the address discovery method, where:
ENABLED
The card broadcasts over the network to receive an addresses from the responsible
server at startup. Manual modifications to IP Address, Subnet Mask, or Gateway
Address are not allowed; and, if no server is found, the specified static value will be
used. (Default Setting)
;
A server assigned IP address takes precedence over any static IP
address stored in the interface.
DISABLED
The stored static IP, Subnet Mask, and / or Gateway Address will be used.

DISABLED
SET FACTORY
DEFAULTS

HOST SETTINGS
Controls the communications with a host device, where:
;
The "ignore host" settings for ESC SEQUENCES, HEAT, SPEED,
TOF SENSING, SYMBOL SET, CNTRL-CODES, STX-V SW
SETTINGS, and MAX LENGTH will be unaffected when PL-Z Mode
is selected (see Input Mode for details ).
HOST TIMEOUT
Sets the number of seconds (1 - 60) that an established communications port must
be idle before data can be received through an alternate port, where:
;
If the time-out period is exceeded before all data is received, the
