THEN:

The DACS is properly receiving packets from the Host computer. Go to the Ethernet Control Win-

dow. The Pkts counter for one or more of the RX buffers should be incrementing. Make sure the

buffer receiving the packets is the same one speciﬁed in the model. If none of the RX buffers are

receiving, make sure the host computer is using the correct port address.

IF:

ARP request tx is incrementing, TX Errors is incrementing, and the rest of the counters are zero.

THEN:

Check to see that the cable attaching the host computer to the DACS is properly hooked up. If you

are using coaxial cable, make sure it is properly terminated.

IF:

RX good count is not incrementing, TX Errors is not incrementing, and ARP reply rx is zero.

THEN:

Go to the Host Interface menu, then to the Ethernet Status page. Near the top of the page is a ﬁeld

called “Filter”. Set this to “Promiscuous: All packets”.

If the receive counters are still not incrementing, then there are no packets being sent on the net-

work. Your host computer is either not sending packets or is not hooked up to the network.

If you see packets being received, you may have your IP addresses set up wrong. Make sure that

the IP address that the host computer has for the DACS is the same IP address the DACS has for

itself.
