Chapter 5: Base Station Configuration
Base Stations
Name
The name entered in this parameter is used as an alternate way of identifying the
IP address of a slave base station.
IP Address
This parameter provides the corresponding IP address for the slave base station.
The IP Address must be a unique value so that each slave base station can be iden-
tified on the network.
The acceptable value ranges from 0.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
The default value for the IP port is 16100.
Protocol
IAC/EOR (TCP/IP) is the default protocol for the Ethernet connection.
Message Size
Message Size determines the largest single message that can be passed to a
terminal. The range of this parameter is between 32 and 380 characters. (Longer
messages are broken into several packets.)
For polling protocol base stations, the upper limit is 116.
Auto-Startup
When this parameter is enabled ( √ ), the slave base stations will start polling when
the master 9150 boots up. When Auto-Startup is disabled, the base stations will not
start polling until they receive a start polling command from the host.
