When the cursor passes over the scanning area, the digital indicator below that area is lit showing
the position of the pointed beam. Analogously happens with the bar of the TEACH-IN. On the right
side, we find a series of property pages, initially disabled, with the various configuration parameters
for the

6.1.5. Configuration of the AREAscan
TM
DS2 series with Ethernet interface
The DS2ETH is configured in factory with the static IP address 172.27.101.210 and the port 36910.
To allow communication, the PC and the DS2ETH must belong to the same subnet. If your network
is not the 172.27.0.0, the IP of each light curtain must be changed. To achieve this, the IP address
of the PC must be momentarily modified in order to communicate with the local network 127.27.0.0.
This document does not cover all the aspects/issues inherent to the configuration of the
TCP/IP network and is intended only as a short line guide to make the DS2ETH light curtains
operative. The following guide is based on the Windows XP operating system.
From the Start menu, select “Settings
Network Connections”. Select the network interface, then
“Change settings of this connection” from the left panel “Network Tasks”.
