Tab Option Meaning
Computer
name
Settings on the iTNC 530 for networking. The name of the control as well as other data
can be defined.
Primary interface Name of the Ethernet interface to be integrated in your company
network. Only active if a second, optional Ethernet interface (MC
62xx) is available on the control hardware.
Computer name The iTNC registers itself in the network with this name, which you
can also use to reach it (with TNCremoNT, for example). If you use
a host-name server, you must enter the "Fully Qualified Host
Name" here. If you do not enter a name here, the iTNC uses the
so-called null authentication. If null authentication is used, the
entries under UID, GID, DCM and FCM are ignored.
Host file Only required for special applications:
Name of a file in which the assignments of IP addresses to
computer names are defined.
Then you can enter the names instead of the IP addresses in the
network settings.
Example:
DOMAIN = NET.A
File NET.A:
PC1 160.1.180.20
PC2 160.1.180.21
