FS22SI
INTERROGATOR SETUP
Please note that the durations stated in
are merely indicative and may vary.
Important
In case the interrogator does not start correctly, contact HBK FiberSensing for technical
support.
2.2.2
Ethernet
Connect the provided Ethernet cable, or any other cross over cable, from the interrogator
to your PC network.
In order to communicate with the interrogator using a computer, both elements should be
configured in the same subnet:
S
Set the TCP properties of the computer as follows:
-
IP address: 10.0.0.xxx (where xxx should not be 10: the default IP of the FS22SI is
10.0.0.10)
-
Subnet mask: 255.0.0.0
S
Test the connection:
-
Launch a command line (e.g. Start
→
Run
→
type “cmd”, in Windows environment)
-
Type and execute the following command: “ping 10.0.0.10”
-
On a successful connection the response should be similar to: “Reply from
10.0.0.10: bytes=
32 time<1ms TTL=60”.
Important
The interrogator can be synchronized to other devices using NTP. For further details refer
to the full user manual of the interrogator.
2.2.3
Optical
The FS22 - Industrial BraggMETER SI can be purchased either with FC/APC or SC/APC
connectors. Select the appropriate connector type and adapter, if needed, to connect the
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors to the interrogator.
Attention should be paid to the cleaning of the optical connector(s). A dirty connector can
compromise measurements.
