The following window will open after the ECISoft button is clicked:
The ELC programming cable (ELC-CBPCELC3) may be used to connect to and configure the
ELC-CAENET module or Ethernet may be used to connect to the module. For this example,
RS232 was used to initially configure the IP address and Subnet Mask for the CAENET
Ethernet module. The Ethernet module does support DHCP as well. Note: the default IP
address setting for the ELC-CAENET module is 192.168.1.5. The PC IP address and network
mask need to be set up to reside on the same network. This will allow you to immediately
connect to the ELC module using ECISoft on Ethernet. If you choose to use RS232 to configure
the Ethernet modules, use the ELC programming cable to connect to each Ethernet module to
set the IP address and Subnet Mask. The computer and the Ethernet module must then be
connected to an Ethernet switch. Be sure the subnet mask is the same for all devices.
In ECISoft select the Tools drop down menu then choose Communication Setting. For this
example the IP addresses are set up for each device as shown earlier in this document. The
Communication Setting page looks like the following:
