MCS 600 Network Connection MCS 600
4.3 Changing the MCS 600's IP address
Upon delivery, the device's settings are configured as follows:
IP address: 192.168.0.100
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0
There are three ways to change these settings:
1. If an ethernet connection has been established (the connection icon is visible
next to the device name), the SMC program can be used to change the IP
address ("Change Device‘s IP").
2. The IP address and subnet mask can also be changed with the "ethconf" pro-
gram, regardless of the ethernet adapter's configuration. This program uses
UDP communication and is included with the OSIS SDK. Contact ZEISS custo-
mer service for more information.
3. The IP address, subnet mask and gateway can be changed in a hyperterminal
shortly after restarting the device. To do this, the MCS 600 must be connected
via the ECCU's D-Sub port (see figure 1 in section 3.2) to the COM port on a
computer using a null modem cable. Contact ZEISS customer service for help.
Warning
The MCS6xx cannot obtain an IP address via DHCP.
