12.6 Ethernet Configuration
–
IP Parameters
For primary operation, the IP address, Net Mask, and Gateway should be set in the LAN config of the
Cscape Hardware Configuration
. There are options to get IP parameters from the LAN Config or to get
parameters from registers. It is possible to set the Ethernet IP parameters from the OCS System Menu,
but only as a temporary measure. The following points on IP parameter configuration should be
considered.
•
IP Parameters in Non-Volatile RAM:
The IP parameters of the Cscape LAN Config are written to
non-volatile RAM on power down. IP parameter settings made in the System Menu are not
written to non-volatile RAM. Any IP parameters settings made in the System Menu will be lost
after cycling power to the unit. It will revert back to the last downloaded Cscape LAN Config that
was loaded into non-volatile RAM at power down.
•
“Cscape LAN Config”/ “Get Settings from” Configuration
: W
hen ‘Get settings from’ is set to
Configuration, the IP parameters specified under ‘Default Settings’ is used after downloading to
the controller. The IP parameters are represented in System Menu / Set Networks and can be
edited. However, any edits made from System Menu / Set Networks is not retained through a
power cycle. After power cycle, the unit reverts to the last downloaded Cscape LAN Config that
was loaded into non-volatile RAM at power down.
•
“Cscape LAN Config” / “Get Settings from” Register
:
When ‘Get settings from’ is set to Register,
the IP parameters are retrieved from the OCS registers assigned in LAN Config. Configured
registers must be populated with the desired IP parameters.
The IP parameters are represented in System Menu / Set Networks.
The IP parameters cannot be edited from System Menu / Set Networks while the unit is in run
mode.
The IP parameters always follow the values in the registers unless the OCS unit is placed in idle
mode. Then the IP parameters can be edited in System Menu / Set Networks. When the OCS is
placed back into run mode, it reverts to the registers for IP parameters.
12.7 Ethernet Module Protocol Configuration
The Protocol Support area contains a list of all the protocols supported by the platform being
configured. To activate a protocol, check its checkbox.
For protocols that require additional configuration, click on a listed protocol to select it and then click
the
Configure Selected Protocol
button. This will open a new dialog with configuration options for the
selected protocol.
For detailed information on individual protocol configuration refer latest version of ETN 300 Manual
SUP0740.
