Installation of DFF3D Multibeam Sounder
The "DFF3D
”
and “PBG” Modules need to be unlocked prior to
configuring the Furuno DFF-3D in
TZ Professional.
Computer Setup
The DFF-3D connects to the PC through an Ethernet connection (100Base-T). All Furuno Ethernet sensors (including Ethernet sounders) only operate
on the 172.31.x.x. / 255.255.0.0 network.
•
You will have to setup your computer IP address to match that network. We highly recommended using 172.31.3.150 as a fixed IP address
for the computer with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
Open the "Network Connections" control panel of
your computer to adjust the IP address:
•
Press [Windows] + [R] to bring up the Run
Dialog box
•
Type
“ncpa.cpl” and press [Enter]
•
Double click on the Network Adapter
connected to the DFF-
3D (usually “Local Area
Connection”).
•
Select "Properties" on the "Local Area
Connection Status" window.
Note: If you have multiple Area Connections
(multiple Ethernet Cards) and if you don’t know which one is connected
to the DFF-3D, you can temporary disconnect the Ethernet Cable connected to the DFF-3D from the computer and
look at which icon will display a red cross. This will indicate the LAN that has been disconnected from the computer,
and the one that needs to be configured.
