ENTRY
DESCRIPTION
until after power on the unit has been cycled.
When changing mode from static IP to DHCP,
it is necessary to cycle power on the unit twice,
once to change mode and again to obtain and
display a new IP address from the network.
MAC Address
Displays the network Media Acces Control
address. This value is fixed and cannot be
changed. The same MAC is normally printed
on the model serial tag. The MAC address is
shown as six hexadecimal numbers separated
by a colon, e.g. 00:20:4A:9A:02:FD. Note that
the leading ‘0’ is never visible due to the
maximum number of LCD characters per line.
Note: If the MAC Address displayed is corrupted
or does not match the serial tag, there may have
been a problem retrieving the LAN port settings.
To recover, turn on power to the unit while
holding down the SET key. This will allow the
unit to boot without attempting to collect the IP
settings. You can then set the required IP
values. [See IP Address above].
GWAddress
Gateway address setting. A default gateway
is a node (a router) on a computer network
that serves as an access point to another
network.
This value can be changed by pressing the
SET key and entering a new value from the
keypad. Use the numeric data pad to enter
each field. To move between the four fields,
use the decimal point key on the keypad.
Any change to this value will NOT take effect
until after power on the unit has been cycled.
HostBits
Number of host bits as opposed to network
bits in network mask. A CIDR class C network
uses 24 network bits and 8 host bits. (Class A
= 24, Class B = 16).
This value can be changed by pressing the
SET key and entering a new value from the
keypad. Any change to this value will NOT
take effect until after power on the unit has
been cycled.
Port No
TCP remote port number. This value must be
set to 5025 (SCPI) to support the built in web
page.
This value can be changed by pressing the
SET key and entering a new value from the
keypad. Any change to this value will NOT
take effect until after power on the unit has
been cycled.
