1.2.5 How the 4HD/5HD-CPU works
The communication between the 4HD/5HD-CPU unit and the 4HD/5HD-HUB is based on the TCP/IP protocol.
Thus, 4HD/5HD-CPU units have an IP address that changes depending on the number of the pair of lanes
where they are installed. E.g., the address is 192.168.216.101 for the pair no. 1, 192.168.216.102 for the pair
no. 2, and so on.
This information is displayed on the lane monitors during the boot-up process, when testing the devices,
together with the information concerning the version of programs loaded on the 4HD/5HD-CPU and the serial
number (a univocal number that identifies the 4HD/5HD-CPU unit). The serial number is used to address the
4HD/5HD-CPU units, it can be read off the lane monitors and a dedicated label applied to one side of the
4HD/5HD-CPU unit.
