Transpector CPM Operating Manual
3.4 Connecting Transpector CPM
Before connecting Transpector CPM, decide:
Is Transpector CPM going to be on:
a private network (installed directly on either a computer or a router that is
not hooked up to the internet), or
an internal network where multiple computers are connected with access to
the internet?
Is more than one Transpector CPM sensor being installed at the same time?
3.4.1 Connecting a Single Transpector CPM
3.4.1.1 Single Transpector CPM Direct Connection Installation
When installing a single Transpector CPM on a private network or directly
connected to a computer, changing the IP address of Transpector CPM is
necessary only if the computer being used to connect to Transpector CPM has a
different network prefix than Transpector CPM.
The network prefix of Transpector CPM is
192.168.x.x. The IP address of the
host computer used to control Transpector CPM must have a subnet mask of
255.255.0.0 and a network prefix of 192.168.x.x.
If this is not the case, change the computer IP address to match the network prefix
of Transpector CPM. For example, giving the computer an IP address of
192.168.1.101 will allow Transpector CPM to communicate directly with the
computer. (See section 3.5, Changing the Computer IP Address, on page 3-8.)
3.4.1.2 Installing a Single Transpector CPM on an Existing Local Network
When installing a single Transpector CPM on an existing local network, the default
IP address of Transpector CPM may not be compatible with the network.
Transpector CPM can have either a Static IP address (recommended) or a
Dynamic IP address set by DHCP (not recommended).
Contact the network administrator for information regarding valid IP addresses and
ask the administrator to assign an IP address for Transpector CPM. (Refer to
section 3.3.1, Using the INFICON Mass Spectrometer Search Utility to Change the
Transpector CPM IP Address, on page 3-3.)
