troubleshooting and find/change the MPS’s IP address if
it is unknown. For information on changing the commu -
nication parameters, including the module’s Ethernet IP
address, see “Changing the IP Address” procedure.
The Power/Serial/Trigger Communications port also serves
as the input for the power and external scan trigger
connections. For more information on externally triggering
scans, see “Scanning With An External Trigger.”
Several power/serial/trigger cables are available for
purchase. Please see the Module Accessory Catalog for all
cabling options.
Ethernet Communications
The MPS4232 has one Ethernet 100Base-T with MDIX
auto-crossing connection. This is the primary means
of communications with the MPS. This connector on
the module is a TE Connectivity PLG 8P8C Mini2. This
is a latching connector to prevent the connector from
becoming unseated when subjected to vibrations.
Shielded Category 5e cable or better is recommended
for all Ethernet connections. The wiring diagram for the
Ethernet connector can be found in Section 4: Hardware.
Several Ethernet cables are available for purchase. Please
see the Module Accessory Catalog for all cabling options.
Setting Up an Ethernet Connection
Before an Ethernet connection can be established, the IP
address must be configured. This can be done manually
with a “static” IP address. If a “static” IP address is desired,
the IP address of the MPS must be set manually. The IP
address assigned to the MPS must be compatible
with the network/host computer.
Using a Static IPv4 address
If a static IP address is desired, the IP address must be
manually configured. The IP address that is configured in
the MPS must be compatible with the network the MPS is
being connected to. If simply connecting the MPS directly
to a host computer, the IP address of the MPS and the host
computer must be compatible, which may require manual
configuration of the MPS and/or computer.
The range of compatible IP addresses is defined by
the subnet mask. The standard default subnet mask
is 255.255.0.0. This default subnet mask requires that
the IP address of the module and host computer must
share the first two octets, or sets of numbers. The third
and fourth octets of the IP address are variable with this
subnet, although it is typically recommended that the third
octet also be shared between the host computer and the
module. The subnet mask digits of “255” define that the
two IP addresses must have matching digits in those posi -
tions, and the subnet mask digit of “0” allows the two IP
addresses to have unique values for those octets and still
be compatible. No two devices on a single network can
share the same IP address. Below are some examples of
compatible and non-compatible IP addresses:
Example of matching the first three octets
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Host computer: 191.30.95.90
MPS module: 191.30.95.100
Example of matching the first two octets
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
Host computer: 191.30.1.1
MPS module: 191.30.95.125
Example of NON-COMPATIBLE IP addresses
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Host computer: 191.30.1.1
MPS module: 191.30.95.5
When configuring the network, the IP address of the MPS
module can be modified to match the network, or the
IP address of the host computer can be modified to be
compatible with the MPS module.
The IP address of a Windows 7, 8, or 10 host computer can
be changed under:
Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Local
Area Connection/Ethernet -> Properties -> Internet
Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) -> Properties
Changing the IP address of the host computer may require
administrative rights.
The IP address of the computer can quickly be found using
Windows Command Prompt and the command “ipconfig.”
MPS4200 modules are shipped with a pre-configured IP
address that uses the following format:
191.30.95.xxx
The first two octets used are unique to all Scanivalve prod-
ucts (191.30). The third octet is the device family code (95
for MPS4232). The fourth octet is the last three digits of
the MPS’s serial number. “xxx” is only a placeholder in the
example as all modules will have different serial numbers.
Based on the examples above, the host computer can be
configured to communicate with the shipped IP address of
an MPS.
In situations where the IP address of the host computer
