Setting Configuration Addresses for Ethernet
Follow these steps to configure the Airnet II particle sensor to communicate with
Facility Net by means of an Ethernet network.
To configure the sensor:
1.
Connect the Airnet II particle sensor to a computer that has terminal emulation
software.
2.
Start the terminal emulation software and proceed to the COM 1 parameters dialog
box.
3.
Set the following communication parameters:
When communications are established with the unit, a prompt appears. Enter the
Configuration commands (see “Configuration Commands” below) to set the following
addresses:
4.
Set the IP address.
5.
Set the multicast address.
6.
Set the mask address.
7.
Set the gateway address.
8.
Enter the “write” command.
CAUTION
As with any network-capable software, do not attempt to connect the Airnet II
particle sensor to a network without your network administrator’s cognizance
and explicit permission. The administrator will need to approve, and in most
cases will issue addresses.
