Connect PC, NAS and GEN DAQ:
The Ethernet switch should be connected to the company network.
l
Connect the PC to the Ethernet switch via a standard RJ45 Ethernet
connection. If an optical Ethernet interface is available, use this.
l
Connect the GEN DAQ system to the Ethernet switch via a standard
RJ45 Ethernet connection. If an optical Ethernet interface is available,
use this.
l
Connect the NAS to the Ethernet switch via a standard RJ45 Ethernet
connection. Some NAS servers also support optical connections, in
which case they can be used.
For information on setting up GEN DAQ, please refer to "Connecting the
GEN series to a network" on page 88.
At this stage, make sure that all connections and configurations are correct.
The GEN DAQ should setup an auto IP address within a few moments after
being powered on. Then the NAS should be configured with Perception.
To configure the NAS, follow the manufacturer's guidelines. An IP address
for the NAS server can now be determined.
