You can select the following three modes by setting the dip switch.
Configuration mode:
A mode in which the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are set
for the DR.
Test mode:
A mode in which the condition of the physical connection is tested.
Communication mode: A mode in which the DR is connected to the network to carry out
communication. Use this mode to read in the DR measurement data with
the PC.
In addition, you can turn ON/OFF the Keepalive function.

Keepalive is a function supported by TCP. It sends packets at constant time intervals and
automatically disconnects when there is no corresponding response. This instrument sends
packets at 30-second time intervals. If a response is not received, it sends 4 more packets at one-
second intervals. If a response is still not received, the connection is dropped.
Have dip switch 4 turned OFF.
