RVON-1 User Manual
Addresses and the RVON-1
Because the RVON-1 has an Ethernet interface, it is required to have a MAC (Media Access Control) address.
This is a low level address that contains 48 bits. Do not confuse this address with an IP (Internet Protocol)
address. In order to be IP compliant, all cards must have a unique MAC ID when shipped from the manufac-
turer. Typically, the MAC ID of a piece of hardware, such as the RVON-1 card, has a fixed or static address.
Where as the RVON-1 card’s IP address can change over time.
The MAC address uniquely identifies each node of a network and interfaces directly with the network media.
The RVON-1 card has a small 8-pin serial device on the board that the processor can read the unique MAC
address from. For more information on MAC IDs, contact technical support.
NOTE
: Each RVON-1 Card needs to be programmed with its own IP Address.
Configure the RVON-1 from the KP-32
To use the RVON-1 with the KP-32, the KP-32 firmware must be at V 2.0.0 or higher. In turn, the firmware
requires that larger flash chips be used as well. For more information, see page 9.
