Appendix C – Virtual NetLinx Master

Appendix C – Virtual NetLinx Master
Overview Virtual NetLinx Master (Masterless)
A Virtual NetLinx Master can be created using your PC, which allows NetLinx Studio to facilitate direct
file transfers to a DXLink Transmitter or Receiver when a Master is not available.
Four basic procedures must be completed for Virtual Master file transfers:

Set the PC to a static IP address (see below).

Create a Virtual Master in NetLinx Studio (see page 123).

Prepare the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver by placing it in Static IP Mode, assigning
a device ID, and setting the connection type to TCP (see page 125).

Transfer the files using a Virtual Master TCP/IP connection (for IRL file transfers,
see page 73; for Firmware file transfers, see page 105).
Setting PC to Static IP Address
Important: When you change the PC’s settings to a static IP address, the address must be in
the same subnet as the DXLink unit (the default static IP address for DXLink Transmitters and
Receivers is 192.168.1.2).
Important Information for PCs with Multiple Network Access Points
If the PC has more than one point of network access (multiple NIC cards or wireless networking), check
to see if one of the connections uses an IP address of 192.168.1.x before proceeding.
To check for multiple networks:
1.
Open the PC’s Start menu (at the lower left of the desktop on the Taskbar) and select Run.
2.
Enter
cmd
and click OK.
3.
At the prompt, enter ipconfig /all and press the Enter key.
4. Check the IP Addresses under Connection.
If the PC or Laptop is currently using a connection with an IP address of 192.168.1.x, you will need to
disconnect the connection.
To disconnect a network connection:
1. Modem: From the Start menu on the desktop taskbar, select Settings \ Network Connections.
Wireless: From the Start menu on the desktop taskbar, select Control Panel \ Network and Internet \
Manage Wireless Networks.
2.
Right-click the network connection and select Disable.
