NetLinx Studio - Instruction Manual
For a Single Network Device
: To use ID Mode to identify and change values for a single device on the
network, do not check the
Continuous Increment Mode
check box. This allows you to manually change the
Device:System numbers, Friendly Name/Location values and/or IP Addressing as desired.
For Multiple Network Devices:
The
Continuous Increment Mode
option provides a method for identifying
and changing values for multiple devices on the network.
The following examples illustrate using ID Mode in conjunction with the
Continuous Increment Mode
option to identify
and change device address values for multiple Network Devices.
Identification Mode - Continuous Increment Mode (Using DHCP)
The steps below describe using the
Continuous Increment Mode
feature of the
Network Device Addressing
dialog to
use DHCP to obtain an IP addresses for multiple devices, using ID Mode and the ID push-button (a physical push-button
found on the network device).
1.
Select
Diagnostics >
Network Device Addressing
to access the
Network Device Addressing
dialog, and open the
Set Identification Mode
tab.
2.
Under
Network Device Processing Options
, select
Continuous Increment Mode
.
3.
Under
IP Addressing
, select the
Change IP Addressing
option. Note that this selection enables the
Host Name
field
(FIG. 267).
4.
Verify that the
Use DHCP
option (the default setting) is selected. This directs the program to use DHCP to establish
an IP Address for each device identified. Note that this selection disables the
IP Addressing
fields.
5.
Click the
Start Identify Mode
button (FIG. 264).
This puts the program into ID Mode, waiting for a device on the network to have it's ID push-button pressed, which
sends a device ID message for that device to the program (FIG. 265).
Network Devices are devices that are not on the AMX bus; instead they connect to a
NetLinx Master via the LAN.
