IP Address

The IP address is an ID that is assigned to each PC or communication device on an
IP network such as the internet or an intranet. The address is a 32-bit value expressed
using four octets in decimal notation (each 0 to 255), each separated by a period as in
211.9.36.148.
Enter the IP address to assign to the MW100. The default value is 0.0.0.0. When making
a local (one-to-one) connection with the PC, do not set the PC to obtain the IP address
automatically. Enter the IP address manually to an address other than the one that is to
be assigned to the MW100 (192.168.0.100 if 192.168.0.10 was assigned to the MW100,
for example).
When making a one-to-one connection, enter the parameters as follows:

Setup Example of the PC and MW100

IP address of the PC

192.168.0.100

Subnet mask of the PC

255.255.255.0

IP address of the MW100

192.168.0.10

Subnet mask of the MW100

255.255.255.0

Note

To initialize all settings including the IP address to the their factory default values, turn OFF the
power to the main module, turn OFF dipswitch number 5 on the main module, and then turn ON
the power. When the 7-segment LED displays bF, all settings are initialized. After confirming
the bF display on the 7-segment LED, turn OFF the power to the main module, turn dipswitch
number 5 back ON, and then turn the power to the main module back ON.

Subnet Mask

Enter the mask value used when determining the subnet network address from the IP
address. The default value is 0.0.0.0. Consult your network administrator for details
about the subnet mask.

Note

Huge TCP/IP networks such as the Internet are often divided up into smaller networks called
sub networks. The subnet mask is a 32 bit value that specifies the number of bits of the IP
address used to identify the network address. The portion other than the network address is
the host address that identifies individual computers on the network. Consult your network
administrator for the subnet mask value. You may not need to set the value.

Default Gateway

Set the IP address of the gateway (default gateway) used to communicate with other
networks. The default value is 0.0.0.0. When connecting to the PC locally in a one-to-one
relationship, this value does not need to be changed. In this case, you do not have to set
the default gateway on the PC.

Note

The default gateway is a router or computer that is used when accessing a computer outside its
own network. Consult your network administrator for the IP address of the default gateway.
