The second case occurs, when a NetCom
+
is replaced by another device. This new device shall have
the same configuration, especially the same IP Address. When you start the NetCom Manager, it
will detect a new device with parameters already in the database. It is assumed the new device
shall replace the old one, click on the
No
button to confirm. Otherwise an installation of new serial
ports is performed.
In general the driver software and the NetCom Manager identify the NetCom
+
Devices by the
combination of IP Address and serial number (plus MAC Address). If one of these is changed, the
above requests appear.
