Chapter 9: Setup Mode: Channel Configuration

 

 

 

If a partial IP address is presented in a command string, it is

 

 

 

interpreted to be the least significant bytes of the IP address and

 

 

 

uses the internally stored remote IP address to provide the most

 

 

 

significant bytes of the IP address. If the IP address entered is

 

 

 

0.0.0.0/0, the device server enters Monitor Mode.

 

 

 

For example, if the remote IP address already configured in the

 

 

 

unit is 129.1.2.3, then an example command string would be

 

 

 

C3/7. (This would connect to 129.1.2.3 and port 7.) You may

 

 

 

also use a different ending for the connection string. For

 

 

 

example, C50.1/23 would connect you to 129.1.50.1 and port 23.

If you enable Autostart, the unit automatically connects to the

Connection)

 

remote IP address and remote port specified when the firmware

 

 

 

starts.

 

 

 

Hostlist

 

If you enable this option, the device server scrolls through the

 

 

 

hostlist until it connects to a device listed in the hostlist table.

 

 

 

Once it connects, the unit stops trying to connect to any others. If

 

 

 

this connection fails, the unit continues to scroll through the table

 

 

 

until it is able to connect to another IP in the hostlist.

 

 

 

Hostlist supports a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12 entries.

 

 

 

Each entry contains the IP address and the port number.

 

 

 

The hostlist is disabled for Manual and Modem Modes. The unit

 

 

 

does not accept a data connection from a remote device when

 

 

 

the hostlist option is enabled.
