7 CONVERTER DISCOVERY
In case the IP address and/or web server port is unknown or has been lost, the user can
recover them using the Axiomatic AxioDisc.exe Windows console application. The
application uses a proprietary discovery protocol and can recover IP locations of Axiomatic
converters on a LAN. The AxioDisc.exe application is available upon request.
The application sends a UDP request to the global IP address 255.255.255.255, port
35100 and waits for the responses from the converters located on the same local network.
The converter discovery response includes the unit MAC Address, IP Address, web server
port, device port, device port type, the converter part number and serial number.

The discovery protocol is also supported by the CAN-ENET Software Support Package, p/n
AX140910, and can be used for network discovery and plug-and-play connection to Axiomatic
Ethernet to CAN converters.
The AxioDisc.exe application can run on Windows starting from Win XP SP3. It was tested
on Win XP SP3, Win 7 and Win 10. In case the application cannot find standard dlls, the Visual
C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 x86 must be installed on the user’s computer from
the Microsoft website: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=48145
