System overview
Information
The control and tools do not support NAT (Network Address Translation).
This limitation must be taken into consideration, especially when operating
via a VPN tunnel or through a firewall!
If a firewall is used in the system, port 1740 must be open for UDP traffic
(incoming as well as outgoing). Otherwise a connection to the control will
be impossible.
Please contact your network administrator for questions concerning the
network operation.
The PC in the external network can only communicate with the control. Communica-
tion with additional components of the system is not possible in this network struc-
ture.
IP addresses of the control system components are completely independent from the
IP addresses of the external network. The following values are factory preset by de-
fault.
Name

Control (ETH1):
192.168.39.100
Subnet mask:
255.255.255.0
Gateway:
192.168.39.1
Mobile handheld terminal:
192.168.39.110
Information
If more handheld terminals are used different IP addresses must be set for
them.
Information
To change the IP address of a handheld terminal the device must be con-
nected to a network.
The IP addresses of the I/O modules or drives are set in MotionCenter EoE settings
(see online help).
Connection handheld terminal - control
The mobile manual operating device can be connected to the control as follows:
•
Directly on the control (standard configuration).
This option is preconfigured by default. When the mobile manual operating de-
vice is connected at port ETH1 of the control, it automatically connects with the
control (if the standard IP address is also utilized there). No additional configura-
tion is necessary.
•
Via a switch
Via a switch The switch is connected to the port ETH1 of the control. The mobile
manual operating device connected to the switch connects automatically with the
control, if the standard IP address is used on both devices. If more handheld ter-
minals are used different IP addresses must be set for them. At the same time, a
service PC that has been given a compatible IP address can be connected to the
switch.
Information
A maximum of 3 handheld terminals can be used simultaneously.
Connection service PC - system components
For a service PC to be able to communicate with additional components (e.g. drives),
it must also be located in the machine network. For that, the service PC is either con-
nected via a switch or directly to the ETH1 port of the control and must get an IP ad-
dress by the user that is compatible with the network.
