Chapter 4. Configuration

To set the IP address, you need the MAC address of the Ethernet Interface. The MAC address is located on a
label on the module, as shown in Chapter 2
, “Installation.” Connect the PACSystems Ethernet Interface to the
Ethernet network.
1.
In the Project tab of the Navigator, right-click the PACSystems
target. Choose Offline Commands, then Set Temporary IP
Address. The Set Temporary IP Address dialog box appears.
2.
In the Set Temporary IP Address dialog box, do the following:
▪
Specify the MAC address of the Ethernet Interface.
▪
In the IP Address to Set box, specify the temporary IP
address you want to assign to the Ethernet Interface.
▪
If the computer has multiple Ethernet network interfaces,
select the Enable Network Interface Selection check box and
specify the network interface on which the PACSystems
Ethernet Interface being set up is located.
3.
When the fields are properly configured, click the Set IP button.
4.
The Set Temporary IP Address utility verifies that the specified
IP address is not already in use, then it sets the target Ethernet
Interface to the specified IP address. Finally, the utility verifies
that the target Ethernet Interface responds at the selected IP
address. Any error or successful completion is reported. These
operations may take up to a minute.

Address
Caution
The temporary IP address set by the Set Temporary IP Address utility is not
retained through a power cycle. To set a permanent IP Address, you must set
configure the target's IP Address and download the hardware configuration to
the PACSystems target.
The Set Temporary IP Address utility can assign a temporary IP address even if
the target Ethernet Interface has previously been configured to a non-default IP
address. (This includes overriding an IP address previously configured by the
programmer.)
Use this IP Address assignment mechanism with care.
Assigning a Temporary IP Address Using BOOTP
To use BOOTP, the Use BootP for IP Address configuration option must be TRUE, and the IP Address, Subnet
Mask and Gateway IP Address must be set to 0.0.0.0.
When the PACSystems Ethernet Interface receives the default IP address (0.0.0.0), either from hardware
configuration or from internal backup configuration, it attempts to obtain a temporary IP address from a
BOOTP server on the Ethernet network. The Ethernet Interface acts as a BOOTP client. The Ethernet Interface
issues a BOOT Request to the network. If any BOOTP server on the network recognizes the Ethernet Interface,
that server will return a BOOT Reply containing an IP address (and optionally a subnet mask and gateway IP
address) to the requesting Ethernet Interface.
Typically, the BOOTP server must be manually configured with the MAC address and IP address (and possibly
other information such as subnet mask and gateway) for each supported client device. Each supported client
