1.5.4 Net Connector
Communications between the 130-01 DAS and an external TCP/IP and/or
Modem occur across the 130-01 DAS unit's NET connector. The cable (130-
8004) has two connectors to allow two connections, one for ethernet and
one for serial communications.
WARNING: A 130 DAS is shipped pre-configured with a default IP address. Be
sure to change this address before connecting the DAS to an ethernet port. Any IP
addresses on one of the same subnets, as the 130 DAS unit, may connect using
FTP and/or the command socket. However, the 130 DAS unit restricts the external
IP addresses from which it will accept connections, to the equivalent of a Class C
subnet containing the RTP host. If no RTP host is set for an interface, no
connections can be established to the unit from outside its subnet.
WARNING: The 130 DAS uses a 10BaseT Ethernet chip. The 130 DAS Ethernet
port will not work when connected to all 100BaseT and some 10/100BaseT
Ethernet hubs.

This connector also functions as the point of input for the external trigger. It also
serves as the point of output for an event detection pulse.

There is also a 12VDC nominal input on this connector to allow for lab setup via
Ethernet using only this connector.
