Network Communications

• • • • • •

Chapter Six contains step-by-step instructions for configuring the HI 6600 Hardy Gateway Module for communications
with external networks, often interfacing with a PLC, DCS or PC network. We recommend reading these procedures
because having a correct configuration is necessary to ensure trouble-free operation.

This chapter also explains how to either configure the HI 6600 series instrument from the Webserver over a standard
Ethernet network. The features of the HI 6600 series instrument operate the same way in either case. You must use the
Web interface to configure units that do not have an optional display.

Before operating the HI 6610 Weight Processor, make sure that:

Power and load point cables are properly installed and in working order.
