(b) Checking the IP address by using the ping function on a PC
Without a dedicated tool such as an FL-net network analyzer, you can use, for example, a general-
purpose PC to check the connection status and the IP address setting of an FL-net device. The
following shows how to check the IP address by using the ping function.
Use the ping command to check whether there are any problems with the connection.
[1] Select Start , All Programs , Accessories , and then Command Prompt . The Command Prompt
opens.
[2] Enter the ping command to run a basic communication test between the link unit and the PC. To
use the ping command, enter
ping
IP-address or
ping
host-name .
Example of using an IP address: ping 192.168.250.13
If the applicable FL-net device was set up properly, the following message is displayed:
