Connecting the instrument to a single computer (local network with no external connections)
The following addresses are recommended if there is no network administrator or if you are
responsible for conguring the settings yourself:
Example settings
DHCP server OFF
Host name Set as desired (unique setting required).
IP address Computer 192.168.1.1
Logger 1 192.168.1.2
Logger 2 192.168.1.3 (assign sequentially)
↓ ↓
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Port number 880X
Gateway OFF
DNS OFF
Settings
Using DHCP server (Dynamic
Host Conguration Protocol)
DHCP allows the instrument to automatically acquire and congure its IP
address and other settings.
When the server and the instrument are on the same network, enabling the
DHCP server allows you to automatically acquire and set the IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway.
Host name Indicates the name of the instrument on the network. Be sure that the
instrument’s hostname is not being used by any other device on the
network.
Since the instrument does not support dynamic DNS, the set hostname will
not be registered in the DNS.
IP address Indicates the address used to distinguish individual devices connected to
the network.
Be sure that the instrument’s IP address is not being used by any other
device on the network. The server will automatically set the IP address
when the DHCP server is enabled.
Subnet mask Divides the IP address into one part that indicates the network and another
that indicates the instrument.
Use the same setting as other devices that are connected to the same
network. The server will automatically set the subnet mask when the DHCP
server is enabled.
Gateway
IP address
• Connecting the instrument to a network
If the computer (communications device) is connected to a di󰀨erent
network than the instrument, set to [ON] and specify the device that will
serve as the gateway.
If the computer is on the same network, the same setting as the default
gateway in the computer’s settings can generally be used.
• Connecting the instrument to a single computer
If connecting the instrument to the same hub, set to [OFF].
The gateway IP address will be acquired from the server when the DHCP
server is enabled.
DNS
(Domain Name System)
When DNS is enabled, you can specify the device you wish to communicate
with by name instead of IP address. (IP addresses consist of a series of
numbers and are di󰀩cult to remember. Devices can be specied using
names instead of IP addresses to make the setup process more intuitive.)
If a server that can convert names to IP addresses is operating on the
network, IP addresses can be checked based on names by querying the
server. The name will be acquired from the server when the DHCP server is
enabled.
