5.6.2.1 MAC ID
The MAC ID or (6-digit) hardware address, e.g., 00:90:6C:6B:6A:5E, is a unique number for network adaptor
identification.
A label with the complete MAC ID is located on the outside of the device.
MAC: 00:90:6C:6B:6A:5E
IP: ______
.
______
.
______
.
______
The last three bytes ensure that the initialized host name (in this case: PR5500-6B6A5E) is always unique.
5.6.2.2 DHCP
Normally, DHCP servers are only used in IT-supported company networks and not on local (directly) connected
notebooks/PCs.
Nevertheless, ‘DHCP’ must be activated on the PC. ‘DHCP’ devices detect each other after a cyclical automatic
‘DHCP’ server search is run with a timeout (approx. two to three minutes) because they use an ‘auto-IP’ address
within a range of 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254.
Note
When the IT/DHCP network cable is temporarily connected between the notebook/PC and a
device, the DHCP server is lost and the notebook/PC returns to the auto-IP address within
approx. two minutes.
Reason: At every network cable connecting the DHCP server/client relationship is checked
newly.
Example
If the search time is exceeded (because there is ‘no server found’), the PR 5500 is assigned an IP address
automatically (e.g., 169.254.0.123). The same applies to the notebook or PC (e.g., 169.254.0.54).
These IP addresses are different on both sides:
-
the same in terms of the first two octets of the IP address (e.g., network ID 169.254.)
-
different in terms of the last two octets of the IP address (e.g., host ID 0.123.)
5.6.2.3 Host name (device name)
The host name must always be unique.
If names are user-defined (host name is editable)
-
the same host name must not exist twice within the network ID.
For example: correct assignment would be host name device 1: PR5500 scale1; device 2: PR5500 scale2
The ‘default’ (PR5500-6B6A5E) is always correct, whereby the last three bytes of the MAC ID are unique.
-
This is limited to 2–24 characters.
Permitted are
-
letters A–Z, a–z
-
numbers 0–9, but these must not constitute the first or last character
-
hyphens (‘-’), but these must not constitute the first or last character
