NetLinx Settings Page Features

Feature

Description

 

 

NetLinx Master:

This section allows the user/administrator to define the communication and encryption

 

parameters of the target Master.

• Connection

 

• A status field which indicates whether a Master has been detected and

 

communicating with the MAX-CSE.

 

• During the initial setup, this field reads Not Connected.

 

• After a successful connection to a target Master, this fields reads Connected.

• Mode

 

• A drop-down list from which the user can choose which NetLinx connection Mode

 

will be used to communicate with the target Master.

 

• Available modes: Listen, Auto (default), URL

 

Listen sets the MAX unit to "listen" for broadcasts from the Master. In this system,

 

the MAX unit acts as a "Server" (in that Clients attach to it) and the Master acts as a

 

"Client".

 

Auto is used to instruct the MAX unit to search for a Master that both uses the same

 

System Number (assigned within this page’s System Number field) and resides on

 

the same Subnet as itself. In this case, the Master has its UDP feature enabled.

 

URL is the address that defines the route to a file on the Web or any other Internet

 

facility. This setting is used when the IP Address of the target NetLinx Master is

 

known. In this system, the MAX unit acts as a "Client" and the Master acts as a

 

Server (in that Clients attach to it). In URL mode, you can only enter the IP/URL of

 

the target Master. The System Number is 0 (for an unknown System Number) and

 

the Master Port Number is defaulted to 1319.

• System Number

 

Allows a user to enter a system number.

 

Default value is 3701.

 

• Only in the Auto Mode will the System field be user-definable.

• Device Number

 

Allows a user to enter a current device value (non-duplicated). You must use a value

 

which is not currently being used by another device currently communicating with the

 

target Master.

 

• Within NetLinx Studio, use the Online Tree tab to review what device values are

 

already being used.

 

• Default value is 32001.

 

 

• Master IP/URL

Allows a user to enter the IP Address or URL used by the target Master.

 

Note: This is the same IP Address used by NetLinx Studio to communicate with the

 

Master.

 

• Target Master IP Address must be in IPv4 dot notation (ex: X.X.X.X).

• Master Port Number

 

Allows the user to enter the port number used by the NetLinx Master.

 

• Default value is 1319.

• Encryption

 

Based on the Master’s security status.

 

• Default value is Disabled (fields are greyed-out).

 

• These radio boxes either enable or disable data encryption of the data transferred

 

between the Master and the MAX over the ICSP connection. Note that this is

 

optional. If this is enabled, this setting requires more processor cycles to maintain.

 

• This selection determines if a username and password is required prior to

 

communication between the MAX unit and the target NetLinx Master via an ICSP

 

connection using a transport method such as TCP/IP or UDP/IP.

• Username/Password

 

If the target Master has been previously secured, enter an alpha-numeric string (into

 

each field) which conforms to a pre-configured user profile on the Master. This profile

 

must have sufficient access rights.

 

Requiring the encryption of any data being transmitted or received via an ICSP

 

connection (via the previous radio box) also mandates that a valid username and

 

password be provided within the Username and Password fields.
