3 Preparation of a communication line
3-1 The outline of communication control
PM16C-16HW2 is equipped communication control by LAN (2 ports), RS-232C, and GP-
IB as same as PM16C-16HW. Initial setting is required of each communications. Any initial
setting can be performed in SETUP mode.
The display method of a SETUP screen
After Power on, the 1.REM/LOC button is pushed
and a green LED is made turn on.
Since a screen will change if the 2.SETUP button
is pushed, please push down 3.JOG switch in the
direction of CW or CCW, and change a page.
3-2 Configuration of LAN communication
JOG switch is moved to the CW position several times,
and page 10 (LAN_H), page 11 (LAN_L) are displayed.
Right photograph is the state of initial setting, and MAC
address different for every equipment.
To change the IP address, port number, subnet mask, and
gateway address, move the blinking cursor with the
CURSOR button and enter the number directly with the
numeric keypad.
As for a port number, 10001 to 10999 is a recommended
value. There are eight port numbers [0] to [7] for each of
LAN_H and LAN_L, and you can check or change other
port numbers with the CH SEL lever switch or numeric
keypad at the bottom.
If change is completed, the SETUP button will be pushed, and escape from SETUP screen.
The change will be reflected. Please check that communication is established by the “VER?”
command etc.
3-3 Differences between LAN_L (normal LAN) and LAN_H (hi-speed
LAN)
The difference is that the hi-speed LAN port has a structure that can respond to the
command "PS_16?" That reads the counters for all 16 channels within 1ms. Responses other
than "PS_16?" on the hi-speed LAN port side are the same speed as normal LAN.
Normal LAN port also responds to the command "PS_16?", but the specifications are about
10 to 20ms.
