Setting the Cascading Mode
A maximum of eight PX devices can be cascaded using USB cables and
therefore share only one Ethernet connection. See
Cascading the PX
via USB
(on page 29).
The Ethernet sharing mode applied to the USB-cascading configuration
is either network bridging or port forwarding. This mode is determined by
the master device. See
Overview of the Cascading Modes
(on page
Only the Admin user or a user with the Administrator Privileges
permission can configure the cascading mode.
To apply the "Port Forwarding" cascading mode, all cascaded PX
devices must be upgraded to version 2.5.20 or later, or those devices not
supporting the "Port Forwarding" mode cannot be accessed over the
network. See
Updating the PX Firmware
(on page 317).
Note: The PX in the Port Forwarding mode does not support APIPA. See
APIPA and Link-Local Addressing
(on page 2).
To configure the cascading mode:
1. Log in to the master device's web interface.
2. Choose Device Settings > USB Cascading. The USB Cascading
Configuration dialog appears.
3. Verify that the "Position in cascaded chain" field shows 0 (Master),
indicating that this PX is the master device.
4. Select the preferred cascading mode in the "Cascading mode" field.
Bridging: Each device in the USB-cascading configuration is
accessed with a different IP address. This is the default.
Port Forwarding: Each device in the USB-cascading
configuration is accessed with the same IP address but with a
different port number assigned. For details the port numbers, see
Port Number Syntax
(on page 139).
Note: If reversing or disconnecting the USB cable from a slave
device, causing the slave device to become a master or standalone
device, you must plug an Ethernet cable to it to update its
USB-cascading status.
5. Click
OK.
6. If selecting Port Forwarding, a list of port numbers for diverse
networking protocols will be available on the "Protocol to Port
Mapping" tab of each cascaded device.
