SLC Communication Channels 13-31
For processors running OS Series C, FRN 6 and higher, clicking the Clear
button while monitoring Channel Status of either channel 1 or channel 0
online, will reset all of the channel status diagnostic counters for both channels
to zero. Prior to OS Series C, FRN 6 the only channel status diagnostic
counters that are reset when the Clear button is clicked are the ones on the
channel that the programming terminal is connected to. For example, if your
programming terminal is connected online via channel 0 and you are
monitoring the Channel Status of channel 1, when you click on the Clear
button, only channel 0 diagnostic counters will be reset, not channel 1
diagnostic counters.
Configuration Via BOOTP
BOOTP (bootstrap protocol) is a low-level protocol that TCP/IP nodes use
to obtain start-up information. By default, the SLC 5/05 broadcasts BOOTP
requests at powerup. The BOOTP Valid parameter remains clear until a
BOOTP reply has been received. BOOTP lets you dynamically assign IP
Addresses to processors on the Ethernet Link.
To use BOOTP, a BOOTP Server must exist on the local Ethernet subnet.
The server is a computer that has BOOTP Server software installed and reads
a text file containing network information for individual nodes on the
network.
