Communication:
Section used for setting up communications to the instrument.
Ethernet TCP/IP
1) Connect an Ethernet cable between the instrument’s RJ45
connector and a PC, then power up the instrument. A cross‐over
cable is not required, but can be used.
2) The instrument will auto‐negotiate settings suitable for a variety of
operating systems and network configurations. Wait approximately
15 seconds and check to see if the green light of the Ethernet port is
on and blinking – if so, skip to step 8 – you are connected.
3) If the green light on the Ethernet port does not light up, check that
the unit’s Enable DHCP is turned off and follow steps 4 through 9.
4) Using the unit’s Fixed IP address (the default is 192.168.000.100),
the PC must now be assigned a unique IP address (for example,
192.168.000.101)
