Windows PC Network Configuration
PC’s Ethernet configuration must be set consistently with ADL500 Ethernet configuration, so that the PC and ADL500
can communicate.
Usually PC’s are set in DHCP mode, so they request the network for an IP address. In case no DHCP server is availa-
ble in the network, in most cases PC’s autonomously acquire an IP address belonging to “link local” family: 169.254.x.y.
If the PC’s Ethernet configuration has to be modified, for example in case of ADL500 static IP configuration, here are
the operations to do:
For Windows XP under Control Panel -> Network Connections
For Windows 7 under Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Change adapter settings
For Windows 10 under Control Panel -> Network & Internet -> Change your network settings -> Change adapter options
Then right click on the network adapter to be configured, select “Properties”, double click on “Internet Protocol TCP/IP”
(for Windows XP) or “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) (for Windows 7 or Windows 10).
By default, under “General” Tab, the radio button “Obtain an IP address automatically” should be selected. With this
selection, the PC requests the IP address from the DHCP network.
If under “Alternate Configuration” the “Automatic private IP address” is selected, PC will acquire a link local address
(169.254.x.y), if no DHCP server is available in the network.
Changing the selection of the radio button to “Use the following IP address” the PC will be configured with a static
network configuration. Value of fields:
-
IP address
-
Subnet Mask
-
Default Gateway
must be set to be compatible with ADL500 network configuration and thus enable communication.
