IPMODE
Description
IP mode set command.
Syntax
IPMODE nn
Remarks
This command is used to set the controller’s IP mode. In order for this setting to take effect,
please save this setting in the controller’s non-volatile memory and reset the controller.
As the name implies, Static IP addresses are the same every time you connect. Dynamic IP
addresses may change each time you connect to the Internet. Dynamic IP addresses are the
normal customer access method used by most ISPs or Service Providers and this is the default
IP mode for this product
Having a static IP address for your dedicated server means an IP address will be assigned to
your server (controller) only once and that IP address will belong to your dedicated server
forever. A static IP address will be given out to your dedicated server so that every time it logs
in it will be using the same IP address for all of its sessions.
NOTE: Send this command via USB interface as Ethernet communication may become
unstable during Ethernet settings configuration. While connected via USB, use
the Picomotor application software to send commands (Go to ‘Terminal’ tab).
