5.6. Autoware IP Track
The SC6540 scanner does not contain a display to keep track of Ethernet settings.
The Autoware IP Track program can be used to track the SC6540 Ethernet
settings including IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. The Autoware
IP Track program can be downloaded from the Associated Research, Inc. website:
http://www.asresearch.com/products/software/index.shtml
This editor menu can be used to keep track of multiple units connected to a
network. There are three fields at the top of this editor that are associated with the
PC settings: This Computer’s IP Address, This Computer’s Subnet Mask and This
Computer’s Default Gateway. This will show the user the settings of the
associated PC. The image below illustrates the Autoware IP Track window:
Below the computer settings, the Autoware IP Track displays all the models
connected to the network. Each model has a displayed IP Address, MAC Address,
Company (Associated Research, Inc.), Model, Serial Number and Firmware. For
example:
IP Address: 192.168.1.45
MAC Address: 00-22-4A-E0-7D-49
Company: Associated Research, Inc.
Model: SC6540
Serial Number: 1234567
Firmware: V2.00
This feature is also helpful for keeping track of multiple main SC6540 scanners.
This feature allows the user to keep track of all scanners by serial number, IP
address, MAC address and dip switch configuration. If a scanner is highlighted,
the dip switch configuration will appear on the top right hand side of this screen
along with the dip switch binary value. This also allows the user to keep track of
multiple main scanners by the value of the dip switches.
