1.4 ACCESSING THE 73VR3100 DATA
1.4.1 ETHERNET
A PC with the 73VR31BLD installed and the 73VR3100 can communicate through Ethernet. The 73VR3100 must
be setup with an IP address in advance. Please refer to the 73VR3100 Users Manual to set the IP address.
n
ETHERNET CABLE TYPE
When connecting the PC and the 73VR3100 via a switching hub, use Straight type cables.
When the 73VR3100 is directly connected to the PC, use a Reverse (interlink) type cable.
We recommend that you will choose connection with straight cables because the reverse cable connection may be
unstable.
n
CONFIRMING CONNECTION
If a Connect Error (Socket connector error!) is displayed during connecting procedure, you can use the PING com-
mand to check whether a connection is properly established with an input module.
Type the PING command at the MS-DOS prompt window, and in response to the command...
C:\WINDOWS > ping ***.***.***.***
(For ***.***.***.***, enter the IP address in decimal format.)
ping ***.***.***.*** with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from ***.***.***.***:bytes = 32 time < 10ms TTL = 64
Reply from ***.***.***.***:bytes = 32 time < 10ms TTL = 64
Reply from ***.***.***.***:bytes = 32 time < 10ms TTL = 64
Reply from ***.***.***.***:bytes = 32 time < 10ms TTL = 64
Ping statistics for ***.***.***.***
Packets:Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0(0% loss)
...in response to the PING command, if a proper connection is established, the above response is returned. If a con-
nection error takes place due to a wrong IP address you’ve typed, a ‘time expired’ notification will be shown.
