INP Devices
Utah-100 devices communicate with each other through Ethernet with a special protocol called
Internal Network Protocol (INP). The “INP Devices” page (see figure 7) shows a list of devices
connected and some info about their configuration: IP address, device type, custom device name,
custom device description, level A and level B [LA/LB], time connected to the INP Network
(Con.time) and if the device is master or slave. Slave/Master parameter will be followed by “Auto”
or “Fixed” in brackets which is telling how the correspondent device is configured (
fixed
master/slave or
auto
decided).
The INP Master will also get the option to add mode devices on this page. By default the INP
devices will discover each other automatically, but in case of situations where a device is on a
different subnet (or network) and communication is routed through a gateway, the device can be
added manually by adding its IP address. Adding IP addresses is also needed if the INP
automatic discovery feature is turned off (silent mode).
