HSE Network Setup Tool
The HSE Network Setup Tool lets you view the 1757-FFLD linking devices (and
their IP address) that are active on the HSE network. The tool also lets you do
the following:
• Select the network card that is used to connect to the HSE network.
• Select which 1757-FFLD linking devices are shown in the RSFieldbus Live
Lists and can be used in RSFieldbus software projects.
The HSE Network Setup Tool is found under Start >Programs >Rockwell
Software >RSFieldbus >HSE Network Setup.
The HSE Network Setup Tool dialog box appears.
Activate the Network Card If your computer has only one network card, it does not need to be activated.
By default, the HSE OPC Server uses the first-found network card (NIC) to
connect to the HSE Network. If your computer has more than one network card,
you may need to activate the card you want to use.
Do these steps to activate a network card.
1. On the HSE Network Setup Tool dialog box, check the corresponding
checkbox in the Active NIC column.
2. Verify that the other network card checkboxes are unchecked.
