Network Mask (only when Use DHCP = NO)
In order to use the TCP autoloader on the network, a valid network mask is
required. If you are unsure about Network Mask, consult your Network
Administrator, or set Use DHCP = YES.
Gateway IP Address
In order to communicate with systems on different subnets, or to connect to
R-Quest for automatic firmware updates, you need to enter the Gateway
address. If you are unsure of this Gateway address, please contact your
Network administrator or set Use DHCP = yes.
Network Active
To make the TCP autoloader go in to Network Mode automatically when
powered on, set this option to YES. Setting this option to NO will make the
TCP autoloader power on to the main menu (not network mode).
N/W Fast Start
The TCP autoloader is capable of starting recording jobs while the data is
being received over the network. This can dramatically increase the speed
of starting a job. However, this option should only be used on fast / lightly
loaded networks. If your network is slow, or has a large amount of traffic on
it (i.e. heavily loaded), set this option to no. When set to No all the data
must arrive at the TCP autoloader before a job will begin. In order for Fast
Start to operate, the ‘Fast Start’ option should also be enabled on the
TrueNet ‘Create Job’ dialog. See the TrueNet user manual for details.
