The “Ping” function is normally used from a PC as a diagnostic tool to determine if a particular IP address can
be “seen” by a host PC.

The EXB-IP module includes a Ping function to help see if it can reach the other members in its list. The Ping
function is accessed through EXB Config program over the serial cable to the EXB-IP module.

To Ping a remote module from the EXB Config software, perform the following steps:

1.

In the Channel Member List, right-click on the Member Name for the remote module that you want
to ping, then choose “Ping” from the drop-down menu.

2.

The “Ping” request window will be displayed as shown below.

3.

If the IP address is correct, select the number of Repeats and the maximum Timeout value.
Next, click Ping to cause the ping to be initiated.

4.

The “Ping Results” window will be displayed.
