Ethernet Settings (S7999B Only)
Ethernet Settings is used to enable Ethernet communications
for remote diagnostics, file transfers, and remote support, and
is not typically enabled (Fig. 105). This feature should remain
disabled unless directed to do so for remote troubleshooting.
Once the feature is enabled, the S7999B must be reset to start
it at power-up. The Ethernet interface can also be used to
transfer profile curve files to/from the S7999B over a local
intranet or the Internet.

A Honeywell software server connectivity check can be
performed by selecting the Check button. This button is only
enabled when the Ethernet interface is enabled and active.
The connectivity check tries for 15 seconds to connect to the
Honeywell software server. Successful connection displays a
“CONNECTED” message on the screen. An unsuccessful
attempt displays “NOT CONNECTED.”
The MAC (Media Access Control) address is a hardware
address that uniquely identifies the S7999B on the network.
This information is likely only of interest to the network
administrator.
The IP (Internet Protocol) address is the address that the
S7999B has been assigned by the DHCP server in the local
network to use for others to access the S7999B. This address
is necessary for the remote user to identify the S7999B in an
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) application for transferring trend
analysis information. Like the MAC address, it is displayed for
informational purposes for the network administrator.
If the IP address has a private network designation (192.x.x.x),
remote access from outside the local network may not be
possible. Contact the network administrator for assistance in
this case. If the IP address is 255.255.255.255, then no IP
assignment has been made, and there is no connection to the
network. This possibility could be due to no physical
connection to an Ethernet network, or there is no DHCP server
present on the Ethernet network. Check with the network
administrator for assistance.
The Gateway IP address is displayed for informational
purposes for the network administrator. The gateway node
provides remote access for devices located off of the local
network to the S7999B.
The Enable Network checkbox specifies that the Ethernet
interface is on or not when the S7999B is powered up. The
selection must be saved to permanent storage (flash) with the
Save button for it take effect at boot time. This checkbox
should normally be disabled, and enabled when Ethernet
access to the S7999B is necessary. This interface must also
be enabled for the Software Server Connectivity check to
function properly (the Check button). If the Ethernet interface is
disabled, the check procedure fails.
