STEP 16
Turn the 98RK-1 power switch ON and wait approximately thirty (30) seconds for
the scanners to perform self-diagnostics. The scanners automatically upload the
calibration data stored within each transducer at start-up. Newly installed
transducers are automatically ready to be used without further calibration.
STEP 17
Select (double click) the executable file (NUSS.EXE) using “Windows Explorer” or
“My Computer” or select (double click) your desktop shortcut icon. (See Appendix
C for instructions on how to create a shortcut icon.)
The initial screen of the NetScanner ™ System software (NUSS) is shown on the next page.
At this point, the best way to see if you have correctly connected your NetScanner
™ System
with the 98RK-1 Scanner Interface Rack is to observe the Host Link (LNK) light, located on
the front panel of the 98RK-1. The 98RK-1 will auto-negotiate for maximum speed connections
(up to 1 gigabit/sec) and will automatically correct for swapped signal pairs. With the LNK light
ON, the system is correctly connected to your Ethernet network or host computer. The 98RK-1
will display a yellow LNK light when it has negotiated a 10T Ethernet connection, green for 100T
or blue for a gigabit connection. The LNK light will blink during communications activities. If
the LNK light is not ON, re-trace your steps to find the connection error. You may use the “
ping” utility as described in the Chapter 6, Troubleshooting, in this manual to check proper
electrical connection and TCP/IP configuration.
