IP Reset
Use IP reset to reset the TCP/IP settings when moving the system from one subnet to another
or when the current TCP/IP settings are invalid.
When the IC-3120 is in the IP reset state, the IP address of the network port resets to DHCP or
a link-local address. You can then set up a new network configuration for the IC-3120 from a
development machine on the same subnet, or you can connect the IC-3120 directly to the
development computer.
Note
By default, the target automatically attempts to connect to the network using
DHCP. If the target is unable to initiate a DHCP connection, the target connects to
the network with a link-local IP address (169.254.x.x).
Software Options
Use the following software to develop applications with the IC-3120. Refer to the
IC-3120
Getting Started Guide
for information about installing software.
•
NI Industrial Controller Device Drivers 15.5 or later driver software.
•
One of the following options for developing machine vision applications:
–
LabVIEW 2014 SP1 or later, LabVIEW Real-Time 2014 SP1 or later, the NI Vision
Development Module 2015 SP1 or later.
–
NI Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (Vision Builder AI) 2015 or later.
•
Software for using and reconfiguring the IC-3120 FPGA. Different configurations are
referred to as hardware personalities, and are defined by bitfiles. NI Industrial Controller
Device Drivers include a reconfigurable I/O personality that you can use out of the box.
Install the following software if you need to compile a custom personality for your
application:
–
LabVIEW 2014 SP1 or later and LabVIEW FPGA Module 2014 SP1 or later—You
must install the LabVIEW FPGA Module to reconfigure the default personality of
the IC-3120 FPGA.
BIOS Configuration and System Recovery
You can change the configuration settings for the IC-3120 in the BIOS setup utility. The BIOS
is the low-level interface between the hardware and PC software that configures and tests your
hardware when you boot the system. The BIOS setup utility includes menus for configuring
settings and enabling features.
Most users do not need to use the BIOS setup utility. The system ships with default settings
that work well for most configurations.
Entering BIOS Setup
Complete the following steps to start the BIOS setup program.
1.
Connect a monitor to the VGA connector on the IC-3120.
2.
Connect a USB keyboard to one of the USB ports on the IC-3120.
