Isolate the ACR90x0 controller and related devices on their own subnet.
The high-volume traffic on networks can affect the ACR90x0 controller's
performance. A closed network restricts the flow of traffic to only the
controller and related devices.
Assigning an IP Address and Subnet Mask
The following procedure is for configuring an ACR90x0 controller using a
Serial connection.
1. Using a standard RS-232 cable, connect the COM1 serial connector on
the ACR90x0 to a serial port on your PC. For information about COM1,
see pages 54 and 72.
2. Using an Ethernet crossover cable, connect the ACR90x0 to your PC.
3. Start the ACR-View software, and set up a basic project:
a. In the
New/Open Project
dialog box, select
Create New Project
.
Then enter a title in the box, and click
OK
.
b. Select your specific ACR90x0 controller model and then click
Next
.
c. Enter the part number for the controller and then click
Next
.
d. In the
Controller Alias
box, type your ACR90x0 model (ACR9000,
ACR9030, or ACR9040) and then click
Next
.
e. In the dialog box under
Communications
, click
Serial
. Then select
the COM port (on the personal computer) you want to use from the
left-most list. Then select the Baud for communications from the
right-most list.
f. Click
Connect
.
4. In the
Project Workspace
(to the left), select
Terminal Emulator
.
5. In the Terminal Emulator, do the following:
a. To set the IP address, type
IP “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx”
where x is
the IP address. Quotation marks must surround the IP address.
b. To set the subnet mask, type
IP MASK “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx”
where x is the subnet mask. Quotation marks must surround the
subnet mask.
c. To save the settings, enter
ESAVE
.
d. For the new settings to take effect, enter
REBOOT
.
Verifying the IP Address and Subnet Mask, and
Communication
This procedure assumes you have completed Assigning an IP Address and
Subnet Mask (above), you have not disconnected the ACR90x0, and the
ACR-View software is still open.
1. In the
Project Workspace
(to the left), click on your ACR90x0 model
(ACR9000, ACR9030, or ACR9040).
2. In the dialog box, click
Disconnect
.
3. Under
Communications
, click
Ethernet
. Then enter the IP address in
the box to the right.
4. In the dialog box, click
Connect
.
