Hardware Reference Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
SET CONNECTION
Sets the Master connection settings interactively, allowing the user to specify the mode (for descriptions of
various connection modes, see page 20).
• If the mode is TCP or UDP, the Master URL and port number can be specified as well.
• If Auto is selected, the System number can be specified.
• After all data is entered, if the parameters have changed, the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver will
disconnect from the Master, and begin trying to connect with the new settings.
NOTE:
These changes do not require a reboot to take effect.
SET DEVICE
Sets the device number, and stores it in non-volatile memory.
Syntax:
SET DEVICE <num>
The valid range of device numbers is 0 to 31999.
• If the user enters a number outside that range, then no change will be made and the DXLink Transmitter
or Receiver will issue an error message.
• A Device Number of ‘0’ means that the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver will accept the
auto-assigned device number from the Master.
• If the new device number is different from the old device number, the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver will
disconnect from the Master, and begin trying to connect with the new settings.
NOTE:
These changes do not require a reboot to take effect.
SET DNS
Sets the DNS configuration of the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver, only as applied to Static IP Mode (DNS
settings in DHCP Mode are received from the DHCP server).
Syntax:
SET DNS
This command prompts you to enter a Domain Name, DNS IP #1, DNS IP #2, and DNS IP #3.
Enter Y (yes) to approve/store the information in the Master.
