4.11.6. RS-485 CONFIGURATION OF COM2
Opting to use RS-485 communications for the COM2 port will disable the USB port. To
configure your instrument for RS-485 communications, please consult the factory.
4.11.7. ETHERNET INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
When using the Ethernet interface, the analyzer can be connected to any standard
10BaseT or 100BaseT Ethernet network via low-cost network hubs, switches or routers.
The interface operates as a standard TCP/IP device on port 3000. This allows a remote
computer to connect through the network to the analyzer using APICOM, terminal
emulators or other programs.
The Ethernet cable connector on the rear panel has two LEDs indicating the Ethernet’s
current operating status.

amber (link) On when connection to the LAN is valid.
green (activity Flickers during any activity on the LAN.
The analyzer is shipped with DHCP enabled by default. This allows the instrument to be
connected to a network or router with a DHCP server. The instrument will automatically
be assigned an IP address by the DHCP server (Section Configuring Ethernet
Communication Using DHCP). This configuration is useful for quickly getting an
instrument up and running on a network. However, for permanent Ethernet connections,
a static IP address should be used. Section 4.11.7.2 below details how to configure the
instrument with a static IP address.
