4.5 NETWORK KEY
Note: This manual does not describe network setup in detail, as each network is different. In most cases, the
help of the network administrator or supervisor will be required, for example, in the allocation of valid ad-
dresses and passwords.
Operating the Network key calls a selection box to the display, allowing ‘Address’ or ‘Name’ to be selected for con-
figuration.

INSTRUMENT NUMBER/MAC ADDRESS
Unique numbers set up during manufacture to identify the recorder to a remote host, or to the recorder manufacturer/
distributor, in case of query.
IP ADDRESS LOOKUP
This field allows an address to be entered for the recorder. This can be done either by manually entering an address
(IP address field - below), or the network service BootP can be used to assign an IP address to the recorder.
BOOTP TIMEOUT
This is the maximum time the recorder will wait, at power-up, for a response from the BootP server. If no response is
received within this time, the IP address, Subnet mask and Default gateway are all set to, or remain at 0.0.0.0
IP ADDRESS
Allows manual entry of the recorder’s internet protocol (IP) address only if ‘Specify an IP address’ is selected in the
‘IP address lookup’ picklist above.
SUBNET MASK
This field is editable only if ‘Specify an IP address’ is selected in the ‘IP address lookup’ picklist above. The subnet
mask is the network address plus the bits in the host address reserved for sub-network identification. By convention,
all the network address bits are set to 1. The subnet mask is used to identify the subnet to which an IP address belongs
by performing a bitwise AND on the mask and the IP address.
