CHAPTER 16: ETHERNET OPTION

ETHERNET OPTION SETUP

Use a Telnet connection to configure the unit over the network. The Ethernet Interface’s configuration is stored in nonvolatile memory (NVRam) and is retained without power. The configuration can be changed at any time. The Ethernet Interface performs a reset after the configuration has been changed and stored.

As mentioned above, to configure the Ethernet Interface over the network, establish a Telnet connection to port 9999. From the Windows Start menu, click Run and type the following command, where x.x.x.x is the IP address and 9999 is the Ethernet Interface’s fixed network configuration port number.

telnet x.x.x.x 9999

Be sure to include a space between the IP address and 9999.
