The RS-232 interface of the Q.pac Test Controller is located on
the underside (9-pole SUB-D socket with standard pin assign-
ment).
Procedure Setting an Ethernet address (IP address) via RS-232
1. Make sure that the current version of the test.commander
software is installed on your PC.
You will find the current version in the download section of
our home page. If necessary, in
stall the current version; refer
to Section 5.1 on page 102.
2. Start the software.
3. Using the menu Utilities > Controll
er serial terminal call

4. Specify the required IP address (IP address
), the subnet
mask (Subnet mask) and – if necessary – the gateway
address (Default gateway). If in doubt, details can be
obtained from your network administrator.
5. Click on Apply to acce
pt the changes.
Example
Selected new IP address for the Test Controller: 192.168.169.85
Possible PC IP address: 192.168.169.10
Subnet masks of the PC and module: 255.255.255.0
Section 6.2, Ethernet on the PC on pag
e 138 contains further
information about the use of Ethernet addresses and subnet
masks.
4.4.5 Connecting modules directly to a PC/PLC
You can connect modules directly to an RS-485 interface via the
base connections UART 1A and UART 1B. The following protocols
are avai
lable:
• The Gantner fast binary prot
ocol for the programs ICP 100
and test.commander.
• Modbus RTU for reading and writing variables via registers.
