TCP/IP Settings
Use the Cadex C8000 standalone or connected to a TCP/IP
network and use with Cadex BatteryLab PC software.
In the standalone option, information is specified manually into
the C8000 to start tests and test results are accessible via the C8000
display. However, because of hardware memory limits, not all
customizable features will be available and the test results must be
deleted periodically to make memory available for new test
results. A message appears if RDD space is low (space can be
configured in
Systems > Options
). (Default: 250 Kbytes)
In the networked option, Cadex BatteryLab software can be used
to start tests, store test result histories, and print test reports.
Cadex BatteryLab is also required to update the firmware on the
C8000. This documentation refers to the computer on which
BatteryLab runs as the “host” PC.
The C8000 must be assigned an IP address with a network mask
that matches the network mask of the host computer to
communicate and update firmware with Cadex BatteryLab.
