Use of Static or Dynamic IP settings may be selected through the Set Operating Options ('w')
command. If you are unsure how your module is configured, check the Tx LED during module
power-up. If it begins to blink periodically after the module power-up, your instrument is
configured for the Dynamic IP assignment protocol. (Tx LED remains OFF in static IP
configuration.) If configured for Dynamic IP assignment, a dynamic server must be configured
on the network to return an IP address to the module. Without an IP address, the host will be
unable to open a TCP/IP or UDP/IP connection to the module.
Note Obtaining the maximum performance of an Ethernet network is a
complex process, involving many tradeoffs and is best performed by
IT professionals or other personnel familiar with Ethernet
parameters, topologies, and equipment capabilities. See Pressure
Systems Web site (
www.PressureSystems.com) for application
notes and characteristics of the Model 9116 together with some
hints for its use in high-speed, high-volume Ethernet networks.
Note
After closing the TCP/IP connection to the Model 9116, the host must
wait 10 seconds before re-connecting.
