NOTE: NetScanner ™ System modules are currently designed to use RARP
protocol and BOOTP protocol for Dynamic IP address assignment.
When placed in Dynamic addressing mode, (through the TCP/IP
protocol ‘w1301' command), the modules will first try to resolve their
addresses using RARP protocol. If no RARP server can be found, the
modules will then use the BOOTP protocol. The modules will alternate
between these two protocols until a response is received and an IP
address is assigned. If you are not sure about these protocols, or if your
modules should be using them, please contact your network
administrator.
NOTE: A simple Windows ® 95/98/2000/XP/NT BOOTP/RARP server is
available free of charge from Pressure Systems. For additional
information on the BOOTP Lite application, contact the Pressure
Systems Sales or the Applications Support Department. The application
can also be downloaded from the Pressure Systems web site found at
www.PressureSystems.com.
6.1.2.2 Host IP Address Assignment for Windows ® 95/98/NT
In order to communicate with the Ethernet 9016, 9021, or 9022, the host computer must also be
configured with an appropriate IP address. For Windows
® 95/98 and Windows ® NT, a typical
configuration is described below. Note that this configuration assumes that a host PC Ethernet
adapter is installed and not in use for any other TCP/IP application. If your Ethernet adapter is used
for other TCP/IP communications, contact your MIS or network administrator to determine proper
host IP address and subnet mask configurations before proceeding.
Activate the Windows ® control bar (left click the START icon). Select the SETTINGS line
followed by the CONTROL PANEL folder. In the CONTROL PANEL folder, select the
NETWORK icon. Once in the NETWORK setup, select the tab labeled CONFIGURATION.
Scroll through the list of installed configuration protocols. Select the one labeled ‘TCP/IP->xxxx’
where xxxx will typically identify your Ethernet adapter card. There may be other TCP/IP protocols
listed for other items such as dial up adapters, these are not used for the NetScanner
™ System
Ethernet configuration. If the TCP/IP protocol is not listed in the configuration menu, left click the
ADD button. Continue by selecting to add a PROTOCOL. Select MICROSOFT from the
Manufacturers list. Then select TCP/IP from the networks protocol list.
