STEP 14

Connect the Ethernet cable between the 98RK-1“TO HOST” RJ-45 connector and

the Ethernet card of your host computer.

 

After you set the IP address and the subnet mask, click “OK”. You may then be prompted to re-start your computer so that the inputs will be recognized.

The host computer and each module must have a unique Ethernet Hardware Address and a unique IP Address. The Ethernet Hardware address is generally fixed (at manufacturing time of the Ethernet microprocessor board inside the module). The Ethernet Hardware address is shown on each NetScannerSystem module’s label. PSI’s Ethernet Intelligent Pressure Scanners are capable of supporting various methods for IP address assignment, using either the factory default or user-configured Static IP addressing or Dynamic IP address assignment. Dynamic IP address assignment is through the use of RARP or BOOTP protocols. Unless your application requires the use of Dynamic IP address assignments, it is strongly suggested that the module be left configured to use the Static IP address. The default method is typically the simplest method for using the Intelligent Pressure Scanner.

Note

After closing the TCP/IP connection to a module, the host must

wait 10 seconds before reconnecting.

 

The PSI software (shipped with your module(s)) is called NetScanner Unified Startup Software (NUSS) and is designed to be compatible and operate with most Windows®-based operating systems.

Insert the CD-ROM containing the software shipped with your NetScannerSystem (NUSS) into the appropriate drive of your computer. Using your Windows® “Start/Run” button, type D:\SETUP (or use appropriate drive designation), and

STEP 15 follow any on-screen instructions. This will load the NUSS software onto your hard drive. NUSS is self-installing from your CD-ROM, or may be downloaded from the PSI Web site (www.PressureSystems.com/netscanner_software.html). It may be installed multiple times and on as many computers as desired.

The executable file will automatically be installed as (typically):

C:\ NUSS\NUSS.EXE
