LAN Communication
To enable LAN communication, a LAN or WLAN interface must be
physically connected to the network, and the networking settings must be
suitable for your network. For a description of interfaces, see sections
LAN Interface on page 58 and WLAN Interface on page 59.
The LAN and WLAN interfaces both operate by accessing the serial
interface (User Port) of the transmitter. All commands and protocols that
are available using the serial interface are available through the LAN and
WLAN interfaces; refer to section List of Serial Commands on page 90.
For instructions on how to connect using a terminal program, see section
Terminal Program Settings on page 87.
IP Configuration
The IP settings of the LAN and WLAN interfaces are described in Table
16. The current settings can be viewed on the serial line or using the
device information display; see section Device Information on page 106.
Table 16 IP Settings for the LAN and WLAN Interfaces
Parameter
Description
Automatic configuration
(DHCP)
If enabled, the transmitter will retrieve its network
settings (including the IP Address) from a server in
the network. If disabled, static network settings are
used instead.
Web configuration
If enabled, the settings of the interface can be
changed using a web browser. The configuration
page can be accessed by browsing to the IP address
of the transmitter.
IP Address
The four part network ID of the transmitter. Must be
set manually if automatic configuration is not used.
Example value: 192.168.0.222
Netmask
Used together with the IP address to determine
which network the transmitter is a part of. Must be
set manually if automatic configuration is not used.
A common netmask is 255.255.255.0
Gateway
IP address of the server that enables the transmitter
to access other networks. Must be set manually if
automatic configuration is not used.
Example value: 192.168.0.1
MAC
The MAC address is the unique hardware address of
the LAN or WLAN interface. Cannot be changed.
