Appendix B — LAN and DHCP
B-1 Introduction
This appendix describes network connections for the Site Master.
B-2 LAN Connection
The RJ-45 connector is used to connect the Site Master to a local area network. Integrated
into this connector are two LEDs. The amber LED shows the presence of a 10 Mbit/s LAN
connection when on, and a 100 Mbit/s LAN connection when off. The green LED flashes to
show that LAN traffic is present.
B-3 Ethernet Configuration
The instrument IP address is set by pressing the
Shift
key, then the
System
(
8
) key followed
by the
System Options
submenu key and the
Ethernet Config
submenu key. The instrument
Ethernet address can be set automatically using DHCP, or manually by entering the static IP
address, gateway address, and subnet mask.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an Internet protocol that automates the
process of setting IP addresses for devices that use TCP/IP, and is a common method of
configuring a device for network use.
