6.4 Connecting to a PC which is not Connected to a Network
If the PC is equipped with an Ethernet card but not connected to a network, a local
network address should be used for communication between the Converter and the PC.
The PC-E converter is shipped with a default IP address 192.168.0.112. For direct
connection between the PC and the Protocol converter, a crossover Ethernet cable is
required.
To setup your PC to connect directly to the Protocol converter PC-E, an IP address in the
same range as the Protocol converter must be assigned to the PC. In Windows
environments, this should be done as follows:
•
Connect the PC and the Protocol converter together using a crossover cable
•
Open the Windows Control Panel
•
Select Network
•
Select TCP/IP -> the PC's Ethernet adaptor from the Configuration tab as shown
below
