4.4.3 Overall configuration
The configuration settings are used to switch the mode and application of the DTM-3200. When
settings 0x01 ‘Mode’ or 0x02 ‘Application’ are changed the DTM-3200 is rebooted automatically.
Manageable Items - Category 0x02 – Overall configuration
Nr Variable Description Access Type
0x01 Mode 0 = ASI to TSoIP
1 = TSoIP to ASI
R/W int8
0x02 Application 0 = Failsafe application
1 = Normal operation
See section 4.5.3 for further information
R/W int8
0x03 Volatile storage 0 = Disabled, settings stored in flash
1 = Enabled, settings stored in ram
R/W int8
When the ‘Volatile storage’ variable is set to 1, any changes made to settings with access type
R/W (V), will be lost after reboot.
4.4.4 Network settings
The network settings are used to configure the IP address, subnet mask and gateway for the network
connection. The MAC address can be read from a read-only variable.
Manageable Items - Category 0x03 – Network settings
Nr Variable Description Access Type
0x01 IP address IP address of the DTM-3200 R/W IP addr
0x02 Subnet mask Subnet mask R/W IP addr
0x03 Gateway Gateway R/W IP addr
0x04 DHCP enabled 0 = Use static IP address
1 = Use DHCP
R/W int8
0x05 Reboot 1 = Reboot WO int8
0x06 MAC-address MAC address of the DTM-3200 RO int48
When the 'DHCP enabled' behavior variable is read, it indicates whether a static IP address or DHCP
is used.
For DTM-3200 package versions up to v1.3, the following behavior applies:
 To switch from a statically assigned IP address to DHCP, write 1 to the ‘DHCP enabled’
variable. Effectively, this action causes 0.0.0.0 to be written to IP address, Subnet mask and
Gateway. Writing 0.0.0.0 to IP address therefore has the same effect as writing 1 to ‘DHCP
enabled’: In both cases, the DTM-3200 switches to a dynamically assigned IP address through
DHCP (after a reboot).
 To switch from DHCP to a statically assigned IP address, write the new static IP address, subnet
mask and gateway to the corresponding variables. It must be noted that switching to a static IP
address cannot be achieved by writing 0 to the ‘DHCP enabled’ field.
Starting with DTM-3200 package version v1.4, the 'DHCP enabled' behavior has been altered, to
provide the user with a more convenient way to enable or disable the DHCP client:
