5.2 Configuration of the E*LDS system using the LDSWin PC software
The system centre and all components connected to it can be conveniently configured using a PC with the
LDSWin PC software. This also includes the possibility to read out the configurations of all components and
store them on the PC ("Save parameter sets" function). Thus, in the case of any required replacement of a
component, the configuration can be written back to the replacement device. Further information for this can be
found in the LDSWin operating instruction. In addition, for the purpose of remote adjustment and maintenance,
the system centre can also be operated using a PC via a modem and via a network. The system centre can be
used for the storage of store-specific data from LDSWin so that the same layout can be used for different
LDSWin installations.
A configurable TCP/IP port in LAN Gateway is used for the communication with LDSWIN. This can be freely
selected rom the range of free ports (1024 - 65535) in accordance with the network conditions. As standard,
LDSWin uses the port 5000 and as done in LDSWin as follows:
192.168.161.66: 5000 (siehe Menü 4-1-5).
For more details, see chapter Configuration of the E*LDS system with service PC locally, page 44
Configuration of the E*LDS system using Service PC on site . The operating manual for the LDSWin
PC sofware can be found in E°EDP.

ATTENTION
The port configured in LDSWIN applies for all systems managed by LDSWIN. Therefore, configuration
must be standardised here! Ports other than port 5000 should only be used in justified cases. If a
connection is made via a firewall, the configured TCP/IP port must be opened for the TCP/IP service.
In the event of incorrect port configuration, no communication between LDSWin and the LAN Gateway
is possible! The use of a ”Well Known Port” (0-1023) can result in communication problems and should
be avoided!
