Ethernet Communication
The communication with the PreDAC unit is based on a 10/100/1000 Mbps
Ethernet link. The suggested connection speeds are 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps since the 10
Mbps connection represents a limit to the transmission data rate.
The factory network configuration and the
CAENels Device Manager
software
are described in the following sections.
3.1
IP Address Assignment
The device is shipped with default IP address, subnet mask, gateway and TCP-
IP communication port:
Parameter
Factory value
IP address
192.168.0.10
Subnet mask
255.255.255.0
Gateway
192.168.0.1
TCP/IP port
10001
Even if the PreDAC device can be connected to a LAN network, a point-to-
point Ethernet connection is strongly recommended in order to obtain minimum delay,
maximum data rate performance and to avoid possible communication problems – i.e.
increasing communication reliability. This implies that the host PC and the PreDAC
should reside on the same Ethernet subnet.
For a point-to-point connection it is not necessary to use a twisted cable because
the used Ethernet link has an automatic detection of the communication direction – i.e.
auto-sensing capability.
