• The pinging is to determine if the Master is available, and to reply

 

 

with a connection failure instantly if it is not. Without using the ping

 

 

feature, you will still attempt to make a connection, but a failure will

 

 

take longer to be recognized. Some firewalls and networks do not

 

 

allow pinging, though, and the ping will then always result in a failure.

 

 

• When connecting to a NetLinx Master controller via TCP/IP, the

 

 

program will first try to ping the controller before attempting a

 

 

connection. Pinging a device is relatively fast and will determine if the

 

 

device is off-line, or if the TCP/IP address that was entered was

 

 

incorrect. If you decide NOT to ping for availability and the controller

 

 

is off-line, or you have an incorrect TCP/IP address, the program will

 

 

try for 30-45 seconds to establish a connection.

 

 

Note: If you are trying to connect to a master controller that is behind a

 

 

firewall, you may have to uncheck this option. Most firewalls will not

 

 

allow ping requests to pass through for security reasons.
