Device Discovery Tool
The Device Discovery Tool allows a manual device start-up without automatic regis-
tration via B-COMM.
The Device Discovery Tool is started on a service PC. It detects any devices available
in the network which wait for the host registration using the B-Client AC30 terminal
software and displays them.
After selecting a device, the network parameters can be adjusted.
6.5.1
System requirements
The program is an executable Java archive (.jar) JavaRuntime (JRE) from version 1.4
installed is required to execute the program.
Thus the program is executable on any computer system for which Java is available.
The device sends SSDP multicasts via address 239.255.255.250 to port 1900. A fire-
wall must be configured in such a way that these messages are not blocked. This re-
striction does not apply to the same network segment or a direct connection.

Selecting the network interface
After starting the Device Discovery Tool you first have to select the network interface
of the service PC.
1. Start the Device Discovery Tool.
2. Execute the "Open" menu item.
ð
Any available network interfaces of the service PC are listed.
3. Select the network interface connected with the network which is used to com-
municate with the device in question.

Displaying devices with B-Client AC30
The program will now wait for SSDP packages from devices with B-Client AC30.
If a device is detected, its IP address and MAC address will be shown in the list.
This process may take up to one minute!
Physical assignment of a device is made via the MAC address.
It is affixed to and visible on/in every device (CPU).
