Configuring the Terminal Chapter 3
DHCP/BootP Enable
DHCP/BootP Enable (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
automatically allocates network devices and configurations to newly
attached devices on a TCP/IP network. When DHCP/BootP Enable is
enabled, the PanelView terminal is automatically assigned an IP
Address and Subnet Mask. These fields will be read only. Select
disable to manually enter an IP Address or Subnet Mask for the
PanelView terminal.
IP Address
A unique address identifying the PanelView node on the EtherNet/IP
network. The IP address is formatted as four sets of decimal numbers
with periods between them (10.0.0.1). The range of values for the first
set of decimal numbers is 1…255, unless all fields are set to 0.0.0.0.
The range of values for the last three sets of decimal numbers is
0…255. The default value is 0.0.0.0. A change is not effective until you
reset the terminal.
Subnet Mask
A 32-bit value forming the PanelView terminal’s subnet mask. This
parameter interprets IP addresses when the network is divided into
multiple networks. The subnet mask is formatted as four sets of
decimal numbers with periods between them (255.255.255.1). The
range of values for the first set of decimal numbers is 1…255. The
range of values for the last three sets of decimal numbers is 0…255.
The value of 0.0.0.0 is not a valid subnet mask.
Interscan Delay
The length of time the PanelView terminal delays before re-reading
data from the logic controller. Valid values range from 100…1,000
milliseconds. The default is 100. The terminal must be restarted for a
new interscan delay value to be accepted.
IMPORTANT
If DHCP/BootP is enabled in the downloaded application and
then disabled on the terminal, the terminal will not have the
necessary information (Gateway Address, IP address, Subnet
Mask) to connect to the network on a restart. The Gateway
Address cannot be entered at the terminal; you must configure
this address in the Communication Setup dialog of
PanelBuilder32.
