Item
Description
IP Address
Address Type
Static IP:
If no DHCP server is installed on the network, the network
settings can be configured manually. Refer to
Section 4.3.1.1 Manual
Configuration
for more details.
DHCP:
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network
application protocol that automatically assigns an IP address to each
device. Refer to
Section 4.3.1.2 Dynamic Configuration
for more
details.
Static IP Address
Each tDS-700 connected to the network must have its own unique IP
address. This parameter is used to assign a specific IP address.
Subnet Mask
This parameter is used to assign the subnet mask for the tDS-700
device. The subnet mask indicates which portion of the IP address is
used to identify the local network or subnet.
Default Gateway
This parameter is used to assign the IP Address of the Gateway to be
used by the tDS-700. A Gateway (or router) is a device that is used to
connect an individual network to one or more additional networks.
MAC Address
This parameter is used to set a user-defined MAC address, which must
be in the format FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF.
Virtual COM
TCP Command Port
This parameter is used to configure the TCP Command Port to a custom
value depending on your requirement. Note that if the TCP Command
Port configuration setting is completed, the TCP port of serial port will
be change, as follows:
COM1= TCP Command Port + 1
COM2= TCP Command Port + 2
The default TCP Command Port is 10000, Thus, the serial COM
port1/port2 is 10001/10002, and so on.
Command Port Timeout
(Socket Watchdog)
If the command port does not receive any data from the TCP/IP socket
for a certain period, the tDS-700 can disconnect the socket.
Settings range value: 1 ~ 65535 (seconds);
Default value: 30 (seconds); Disabled: 0;
