Setting

Meaning

HOSTNAME

Name under which the control logs onto the
network. If you use a host name, you must
enter the “Fully Qualified Hostname” here. If
you do not enter a name here, the control uses
the so-called null authentication.

DHCP

DHCP = Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
In the drop-down menu, set YES. Then the
control automatically draws its network address
(IP address), subnet mask, default router and
any broadcast address from a DHCP server in
the network. The DHCP server identifies the
control by its hostname. Your company network
must be specially prepared for this function.
Contact you network administrator.

IP ADDRESS

Network address of the control: In each of the
four adjacent input fields you can enter 3 digits
of the IP address. To jump to the next field,
press the ENT key. Your network administrator
assigns the control's network address.

SUBNET MASK

Serves to differentiate between the network ID
and the host ID in the network. Your network
administrator assigns the control's subnet
mask.

BROADCAST

Broadcast address of the control. It is required
only if it differs from the standard setting. The
standard setting is formed from the network ID
and the host ID, for which all bits are set to 1.

ROUTER

Network address default router: Required only if
your network consists of several subnets
connected by router.

The entered network configuration does not become
effective until the control is rebooted. After the network
configuration is concluded with the OK button or soft key,
the control asks for confirmation and reboots.
