Quick Start Guide - Ultra JR50 Ethernet Data Radio
Here are some basic tips to help you along the way with Ethernet configuration problems. The
Windows operating system (and others) comes complete with many useful tools. First, you need
to open a command window. This can be done by clicking on “Start” then “Run” and entering
“CMD” and clicking OK.
Obtaining IP information about
your PC
If you need to find out more
information about your
computers Ethernet IP
configuration, network gateways
and DNS servers, you can use
a tool called “IPConfig”. Simply
type “
IPconfig /all
” into your command
window.
Checking IP connectivity
The most reliable way to check IP connectivity
to a device is using the “Ping” utility. Type
“
ping xxx
” where xxx is the complete IP
address of the destination device you want to
check. Ping with either respond with latency
results (as shown) or say “timed out” if no
connection was possible.
Repeated connections to multiple devices with same IP address
A common problem experienced when attempting to configure multiple radios with the same IP
address (such as factory default radios). The problem is due to invalid MAC table entries. If you
change your ethernet connection between two devices with the same IP address quickly, you
may need to reset the MAC look up table in your PC. You can do this by typing “
arp -d *
” in the
command window.
