5.6 Expansion card- ETHERNET -
The Ethernet option card enables ASCII communication with SERVOSTAR via a TELNET connec

tion. This card can be used with 10BaseT or 100BaseTX Ethernet.
The card is automatically set to the required transmission rate when it is connected to the network.
The IP-address, subnet mask, gateway address and MAC-address can be set through software. If
the local network has a DHCP server, then the Ethernet option card can acquire the IP-address,
subnet mask and gateway address from the DHCP server. If not, then the settings must be made
manually. The MAC address must always be set manually.
