Local Host

To set the PinPoint-E to report to a local host, one directly connected to the PinPoint-E’s Ethernet
port, configure the port to be used with S53 - Destination Port. The local IP address will automat-
ically be used for local reports. S53, in Wireless Ace, is part of the Misc menu option.

If you need to send reports to additional local ports, you can specify other ports with *PPLAT-
SEXTRA
. Local Reports can be sent to up to 7 additional ports consecutively following the S53
port. If S53=1000 and *PPLATSEXTRA=4, reports will be sent to 1000, 1001, 1002, 1003, and
1004. In PPLATSEXTRA, specify the number of ports where you want the reports sent, 0 to 7 (0
disables extra ports).
