Prerequisites
The Operating Panel is installed as specified in the Installation manual. The Processor Unit is turned on. The following specific items are required for this task:
Neither tools nor instruments are required.
Context
When supplied, the Operating Panel is set up with the following communication parameters:
|
• |
IP Address: 157.237.60.20 |
|
• |
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 |
To set up the Ethernet communication, you must define the IP address for the panel, and identify the Processor Unit in the
panel software. These settings allow you to use more than one Operating Panel on the Processor Unit. You can also control more than one Processor Unit from a single Operating Panel.
The IP and MAC addresses for your Processor Unit are contained in a text file named IPandMACaddress.txt. The file contains the product name, IP address and MAC address in the following format (example):
SY50 157.237.60.14 AC:1F:6B:1D:42:E6 |
If the text file is missing you must find the information manually. We suggest that you do this, and create the necessary folder and txt file before you start the setup process. See step 1 in the procedure.
NoteIf the Operating Panel fails to establish contact with the Processor Unit it will time out and switch itself off after two
minutes. When this happens the blue indicator light stops flashing.
