The basis configuration of the Com-Server
8�3 Menu: SETUP System
This menu is for configuring all the parameters that pertain to
the Com-Server operating system and are independent of the
serial interface.
8�3�1 Menu: SETUP System
r
Setup TCP/IP
n
IP-Address (Default= 0.0.0.0)
Enter here the IP address if you want to change it. Please
note that this number is not freely selectable, but rather
needs to be specified based on the network address of the
TCP/IP network. The format corresponds to the normal
syntax (e.g. 172.16.231.5).
n
Subnet Mask (Default = 255.0.0.0)
Enter the subnet mask of the subnet in which the Com-
Server is located (e.g. 255.255.255.0).
n
Gateways (Default = 0.0.0.0)
In this menu branch the IP address of the standard gate-
way or router can be configured. If you have not confi-
gured fixed routes, the standard gateway is used for all
network packets whose destination IP address is not in the
local subnet.
n
Route 1 - 4 (Destination, Netmask, Gateway)
In addition to the standard gateway, up to four fixed rou-
tes can be defined. Packets whose destination addresses
are in the networks configured here (=destination) are
always sent through the gateway assigned to this route. A
fixed route is only accepted and stored by the Com-Server
if the following check is true:
Destination AND Netmask == Destination

Subnet Mask , Gateway and Route 1-4 cannot be activa-
ted right after saving. The Com-Server will use these values
