Figure 4-19
Ethernet Setup Screen – Ethernet Host Type
Use the following procedure too set up Ethernet host type:
1.
Use the “F1” key to toggle the host type setting to
Host Type Ethernet
(if the
screen displays
Host Type Serial
).
2.
Press the “F2” key to select
Setup TCP/IP Wifi
. The TCP/IP Setup screen
appears (for either Dynamic mode as shown in
or
Static mode as shown in
). The TCP/IP Setup screen
enables you to specify the parameters for the Maximus Ethernet connection.
3.
On the TCP/IP Setup screen, use the “F1” key to select between
TCP/IP Client
and
TCP/IP Server
. In client mode, the terminal makes the TCP/IP connection to
the designated host computer. When in this mode, the terminal does not accept
a connection request from any outside device.
In server mode, the terminal awaits a connection initiated by the host as follows:
•
The terminal waits for a host server to initiate a connection. The terminal
does not attempt to connect to any host server, so it is the responsibility of
the host server to make the connection request with a terminal. The
terminal is set up to accept a single connection that can come from any
host.
•
A terminal connection needs to be maintained only when the host server
needs to, which reduces network traffic, such as Keep Alives.
