SQC-310 Operating Manual
4.1.2 USB Port
USB drivers are installed automatically with installation of the SQC-310 Comm
software. Once the drivers are installed, Windows will find and install SQC-310
when connected to a USB port.
In the event that an unsigned driver window displays during installation, click
Continue anyway. Successful communication can be confirmed using the
SQC-310 Comm software.
4.1.3 Ethernet (TCP/IP) Port
For Ethernet communications, SQC-310 uses the static Internet Protocol (IP)
address 192.168.1.200. The optional TCP/IP interface supports only the Standard
Ethernet TCP/IP protocol. SQC-310 will communicate using TCP/IP on TCP port
number 2101.
The interface supports static addressing. DHCP is not supported. Ethernet
parameters allow the IP address and the net mask to be set. A standard Ethernet
cable is required to connect SQC-310 through a network or hub connection.
4.1.3.1 Ethernet Network Protocol
An IP address defines the computer on the Internet. Most computers are
configured to automatically obtain the IP address from a server. Most computers
will auto-configure and work with either a straight or crossover Ethernet cable.
To communicate directly with SQC-310, the IP address must be manually
configured on the computer, and the computer and SQC-310 must be connected
using an Ethernet cable. To manually configure the IP address:
Follow section 4.1.3.1.1 for instructions to access network settings in Windows XP.
Follow section 4.1.3.1.2 on page 4-6 for instructions to access network settings in
Windows 7 and Windows 8.
NOTE: The above instructions will set two values—the IP address and the Subnet
mask—which may prohibit access to the Internet. If these values already
contain information, make a record of the information for use in restoring
the Internet connection.
NOTE: If the computer only has one Ethernet port (one network connection),
setting the computer for direct communications will prohibit it from
accessing the Internet until the setting is reversed.
SQC-310 ships with a pre-assigned address of 192.168.1.200. To communicate
directly with SQC-310 from a computer, the computer must also be assigned a
192.168.1.xxx address, but cannot be set to 192.168.1.200. The examples in
section 4.1.3.1.1 and section 4.1.3.1.2 use the address 192.168.1.201 for the
computer. The Subnet mask 255.255.0.0 is sufficient.
