Configuring the
Ethernet
Interface
The \NET directory of the PA PowerStation’s CompactFlash contains
a configuration utility and all drivers necessary to configure the
Ethernet interface on the PowerStation. Backup copies of these files
are included on the MachineShop Shell Installation Disk. A list of the
files appears in \NET Directory Files.
Note
The MachineShop Shell Installation Disk is part of the Runtime
Workstation Disk Set, which you can create from the
MachineShop Installation CD shipped with your PowerStation.
See the MachineShop Installation Booklet for instructions on
how to create this disk.
