10.4 Other configuration settings
10.4.1 [NETWORK] Section:
The values stored in this section are only used when DIL switch 7 is set to ‘use fixed IP
address’ (ON)
The ‘IPAddress’ field is the fixed IP address to be used. It must not have leading zeros on
any part of the address (except for a single zero when the value is zero).
The ‘SubNetMask’ is the value for the network subnet mask address. This field must not
have leading zeros on any part of the address (except for a single zero when the value is
zero).
The ‘DefaultGateway’ is the address of the gateway used when messages need to be sent
outside the local LAN. This field must not have leading zeros on any part of the address
(except for a single zero when the value is zero).
The ‘DNSAddress’ value is the address of the DNS server. This field must not have leading
zeros on any part of the address (except for a single zero when the value is zero). This is not
currently used so should be set to 0.0.0.0.
The ‘EthernetCFG’ value is the setting used to set the Ethernet Port speed and duplex. The
available options are: 0 (AUTO), 1 (10M Half Duplex), 2 (10M Full Duplex), 3 (100M Half
Duplex) and 4 (100M Full Duplex, default). Any other value will cause the default value to be
set.
10.4.2 [AUTOMATION] Section:
The ‘Port’ field is used to define which port the software uses to listen on for automation
commands coming from the network.
NOTE
: Only one client connection is allowed on the network to the TX controller for
automation commands.
10.4.3 [DEBUG] Section:
The ‘GenMsgPort’ field is used to define which port the software uses to listen on for the
remote logging functions coming from the network.
The ‘RTIPDiag’ field is used to turn on low-level network diagnostic messages (0 = OFF, 1 =
ON). Under normal circumstances this value should be set to 0.
NOTE
: Only one client connection is allowed on the network to the TX controller for remote
logging functions.
