Configure Addressing Details with IPTool

(Continued)

1. Change if address clash on Ethernet or if routers between EINCs.
2. May change UDP port if port already used on Ethernet, or if multiple internetworks (i.e. sites) required on subnet (see Data Sheet).
3. Enables EINC virtual CNC to access Ethernet PC across router, or EINC to find other IQ system Ethernet devices across
router.
4. Also used by IQ system Supervisors and software tools to access EINC (Device address always 126).
5. Virtual CNCs inoperative until address set up.
6. Set up each virtual CNC used, separately.
7. Same port number to be set up in supervisor to communicate with virtual CNC.
8. Use virtual CNC in alarm mode to send alarms to Ethernet 962 v3 or greater/963 which connects via TCP dial up.
9. Lowest IP address (IQ3xcite or EINC) on each subnet across router to be set up; as many as possible in each subnet recommended.
10. If using 'updatelist' facility (not recommeded for mixed EINC/IQ3xcite system) also set up this EINC's details (and other
EINC's on this EINC's subnet, if not broadcast).
11. Out of the factory mode is ‘unconfigured’ which changes to ‘networked’ on first write to EINC by IPTool.

Configure the optional settings the relevant upper
case letter and pressing ENTER. If a value has been
changed X+ENTER will confirm it and return to the
top menu, whereas Q+ENTER will quit and return
with the value unchanged. The table below describes
the settings.

Note that it may be necessary to set up a virtual CNC in the
EINC if one is not available elsewhere on the network.

If set to zero - no alarms reported.

2

Language type values:0=English, 1=Spanish, 2=Finnish, 3=Swedish, 4=Norwegian, 5=Danish, 6=German, 7=Italian, 8=Portuguese, 9=French.

3

Broadcast preferable as it enables the internetwork link to be made via the subnet of EINCs across router, rather than one EINC. However,
normally stopped by router.

4

This facility allows remoteEincs list in one EINC to be set up, and then the list (including Broadcast status) to be copied to all other EINCs

so that internetwork across routers can be formed (not recommended for mixed EINC/IQ3 system).
