PLC Programmer TCP or host

Also, in this case, set the subnet mask, gateway IP address, and name server IP address to 0.0.0.0.

Note

If the isolated network is ever connected to another network, the IP addresses

10.0.0.1through 10.0.0.255 must not be used and the subnet mask, gateway IP address, and name server IP address must be assigned by the network administrator. The IP addresses must be assigned so that they are compatible with the connected network. Refer to Chapter 6, “Network Administration Support”, for more information on addressing.

See also “Determining If an IP Address Has Already Been Used”.

Converter: Allows you to account for the power consumption added by a serial port converter (measured in Watts). Choices are 0, 0.50, and 0.60.

AAUI Transceiver (Watts): If you use an AAUI transceiver, allows you to account for the power that the transceiver draws from the port (measured in Watts). The valid range is 0.25 to 2.00. The default value is 0.50.

Station Manager PortParameters

Data Rate (bps): Data rate (bits per second) for the port. Choices are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600‡, or 19200*.

Parity: Type of parity to be used for the port. Choices are None‡, Even, or Odd*.

Stop Bits: Enter the number of stop bits. Choices are 1*‡ or 2.

Flow Control: This parameter is currently not used by the Ethernet Interface. Changing this parameter has no effect.

Turnaround Delay: Turnaround delay time (in milliseconds) to be used for the port. Choices are None*‡, 10 ms, 100 ms, or 500 ms.

Timeout: This parameter is currently not used by the Ethernet Interface. Changing this parameter has no effect.

*Default selection for the Software Loader Port.
