1. DHT controller auto-detect the protocol of Modbus TCP/IP, BACnet UDP/IP.
a. The two protocols share the same IP addresses, Subnet masks, default
gateways.
b. Auto-Discovery Mode – known as Zero-configuration networking (zeroconf)
i. Utilized Bonjour Service released by Apple under a terms-of-limited-use
license.
ii. It is intended to use with itools (Eurotherm), not third party applications

as enabled service makes it easier for a malicious user to discover and
access the controller via the network.
c. DHCP Mode
i. Default: OFF
ii. Enabling DHCP will auto-configure IP address, Subnet Masks, default
gateway.
iii. Dynamic IP addressing.
d. Static Mode
i. Default: ON
ii. User can manually set up IP address, Subnet Masks, default gateway.
2. Ability to connect through Modbus RTU protocol.
