Using a LAN Connection
To use a LAN connection, you create a link to a "facility" in Tracer TU.

point of control for all devices on its links, including Tracer SC/SC+ (base) controllers. (The
main System Controller is referred to as an Tracer SC/SC+ (app) controller.)
To create a link to a facility, you need to know the IP or DNS address assigned to the System
Controller you want to access. You can create a link to the facility on the Startup Task Panel in
two ways:
• Use the Add New Facility Connection option to create a persisting link, which you can access
from the Startup Task Panel. (See
“Adding a Facility,” p. 7 .)
• Manually enter an IP address or DNS name on the Startup Task Panel to link to a System
Controller on a one-time basis. (See
“Using the Manual Entry Option,” p. 8
