Installation and Mounting
scanCONTROL 30xx
We recommend the Gigabit-Ethernet connection cable SCR3000A-x for the Ethernet connection; cable length
x in meters. Characteristics: 4 x 2 x 0.14 mm²; shielded.
Due to a high data rate, we recommend using a high-quality Ethernet PC plug-in card, for example Intel-
Pro/1000 PT. The sensors are to be preferably connected directly to the network connection or by means of a
high-quality switch. As a hub would result in a massive data collision it cannot be used. The PC should have
one or more network cards only for the sensors.
The operation of the sensor via Ethernet does not require any driver installation. However, the network set-
tings have to be done correctly:
- If more network cards are used, they have to belong to different networks, for example different Class-C-
sub networks, however they may not belong to the same Class-B sub network.
- The sensor supports an automatically, sensor-adapted IP address in the link-local-net (169.254.x.x). No
collision testing is effected.
- The sensor supports the DHCP protocol. This setting is activated by default and has priority over the
retrieval in the link-local-net.
- A fixed IP address can be given.
- Various network settings can interfere the connection to the sensor (for example Firewall or packet filter).
- We recommend using a packet size of 1024 bytes/packet (payload), because network components sup-
port such packages by default. The sensor supports jumbo frames up to 4096 bytes/packet (payload), but
then all the network components must also support jumbo frames of this size. The uncompressed sensor
array view can only be used with activated jumbo frames.
Use the program
SensorFinder.exe
for network configuration. This program is available online at

scanCONTROL 30xx
supports Power over
Ethernet. If the sen-
sor is connected to
a network adapter/
switch that is capable
of POE and if you also
use the power supply
of the multifunction
port, these two power
supplies have to be
galvanically isolated.
