6-4 Configuring the System for Operation 947091 DaqLab/2000 Series & DaqScan/2000 Series
Notes:
 Using a DaqLab/2000 Series or DaqScan/2000 Series device on a typical LAN may
affect the speed of the network and internet data transfer. Because of this we
recommend adding a network card to the computer and using one of the two
dedicated network configurations.
 Contact your network administrator before connecting your device to a corporate
network.
LAN with no DHCP Server
(Local Area Network with no Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server)
This scenario looks the same as that shown in the previous illustration, except there is no
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). In this type of setup, one or more computers
are connected to a network; and each computer has a static IP address.
STEP 3 – Connect the System Components
Reference Note:
For information regarding connections, refer to Chapter 4, Connectors, Indicators, Cables,
& Pinouts.
What you will need to connect your DaqLab/2000 Series or DaqScan/2000 Series
device to the Ethernet:
An available connection to the Ethernet. The connection can be either
- an Ethernet jack on a computer or
- an Ethernet jack on a hub that is connected to the Ethernet.
An Ethernet patch cable, e.g., a CA-242 (1.5 foot cable) or a
CA-242-7 (7-foot cable).
1. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the Daq device.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack on the host
computer or network hub.
