5 COMMUNICATION THROUGH NETWORK USING THE
ELECTRICAL ETHERNET PORT
For communication through a network using the electrical Ethernet port, connect, using a pin-to-pin cable,
one of the Ethernet Ports of the equipment to the same network as the computer, as shown in Figure 99.
Figure 99: Communication through network using the electrical Ethernet port architecture
If communicating through a network, it is necessary that the device and the computer be on the same
network. It is recommended that the Ethernet port of the equipment be configured to make it compatible with
the local network used in the company. In other words, the IP address, netmask, and broadcast of the
equipment must be on the same network as the computer.
After connecting the equipment with the computer, refer to Chapter 5 for details about equipment access.
