General Errors Using Ethernet Connection
The following general errors may occur when you work with an
expansion box connected to your host PC via Ethernet.
Objective
The expansion box contains a slot CPU with a built-in network
adapter as well as a VGA graphics adapter. A Flash Disk on the slot
CPU stores all the necessary software for the network connection on
the client side.
If you cannot establish a connection to the expansion box anymore,
then the BIOS setup might be missing and the expansion box will not
boot.
For restoring the BIOS setup, refer to Restoring BIOS Setup of the Slot
CPU on page 215.
Expansion box does not
boot
During start-up the expansion box beeps several times. The last beep
sequence indicates whether the default IP address (192.100.100.98)
stored in the Flash Disk is active (three short beeps) or if the IP address
has been changed by the user (one long beep).
The host and the expansion box cannot be connected via Ethernet if
the IP address of the expansion box is unknown.
To find out the client’s IP address, connect a VGA monitor to the
slot CPU. The IP address is displayed during power‑up. Use this
address to connect to the expansion box again.
