Operator and Maintenance Manual for PRO-Verter RMK LAN
• The
logs folder
contains historical records of all data from the RMK since the last time it was
uploaded from the RMK by plugging in the USB drive. The historical records are both .txt and
.csv files created daily and consist of data captured every 10 seconds. The data in these files are
the same as the data displayed in the user interface.
• The
interfaces file
is used to configure networking. This file is not created by the RMK.
• The
ipaddress txt file
is a log file that shows the current IP address of the RMK. When using
DHCP, the router-assigned IP address can be discovered by reading this file.
Note:
IP addresses
may change after a reboot if the IP address in the interfaces file is different from the current IP
address.
• The
interfaces bak file
is the interfaces file that was used previously to configure the RMK.
Figure 17. List of files on the USB drive
Files on the USB Drive Included with the System
A USB drive included with the system will contain the files listed as shown in Figure 17. The files are
in a folder with the same name as the RMK Serial Number (S1002 in the figure below).
Connecting the RMK to a Network via a Router
The RMK is configured to connect to a DHCP network by default.
Connect the RMK to a router using a straight-through Cat5 Ethernet cable.
Open a command prompt window and type in “ipconfig/all” to find the IP address that the DHCP
router assigned to the RMK. Type this IP address into the address bar of a web browser to view the
system data.
If a DHCP network is not available or desired, the RMK settings can be reprogrammed (see
instructions “
Editing the Interfaces File
” section).
