#MTX-MODE? 2<CR>
NAME
Set machine (DNS) name.
The machine name is
not the same as the model
name. The machine name
is used to identify a
specific machine or a
network in use (with DNS
feature on).
COMMAND
#NAMEmachine_name<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NAMEmachine_name<CR><LF>
machine_name – String of up to 15
alpha-numeric chars (can include
hyphen, not at the beginning or end)
Set the DNS name of the device
to room-442:
#NAMEroom-442<CR>
NAME?
Get machine (DNS) name.
The machine name is
not the same as the model
name. The machine name
is used to identify a
specific machine or a
network in use (with DNS
feature on).
COMMAND
#NAME?<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NAMEmachine_name<CR><LF>
machine_name – String of up to 15
alpha-numeric chars (can include
hyphen, not at the beginning or end)
Get the DNS name of the
device:
#NAME?<CR>
NAME-RST
Reset machine (DNS)
name to factory default.
Factory default of
machine (DNS) name is
“KRAMER_” + 4 last digits
of device serial number.
COMMAND
#NAME-RST<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NAME-RST ok<CR><LF>
Reset the machine name (S/N
last digits are 0102):
#NAME-
RSTkramer_0102<CR>
NET-DHCP
Set DHCP mode.
Only 1 is relevant for
the mode value. To
disable DHCP, the user
must configure a static IP
address for the device.
Connecting Ethernet to
devices with DHCP may
take more time in some
networks.
To connect with a
randomly assigned IP by
DHCP, specify the device
DNS name (if available)
using the NAME command.
You can also get an
assigned IP by direct
connection to USB or
RS-232 protocol port, if
available.
For proper settings consult
your network
administrator.
For Backward
compatibility, the id
parameter can be omitted.
In this case, the Network
ID, by default, is 0, which
is the Ethernet control
port.
COMMAND
#NET-DHCP netw_id, dhcp_state<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NET-DHCP netw_id, dhcp_state<CR><LF>
netw_id – Network ID–the device
network interface (if there are more
than one). Counting is 0 based,
meaning the control port is ‘0’,
additional ports are 1,2,3….
dhcp_state –
1 – Try to use DHCP. (If unavailable,
use the IP address set by the
factory or the net-ip command).
Enable DHCP mode for port 1,
if available:
#NET-DHCP 1,1<CR>
NET-DHCP?
Get DHCP mode.
For Backward
compatibility, the id
parameter can be omitted.
In this case, the Network
ID, by default, is 0, which
is the Ethernet control
port.
COMMAND
#NET-DHCP? netw_id<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NET-DHCPnetw_id, dhcp_mode<CR><LF>
netw_id – Network ID–the device
network interface (if there are more
than one). Counting is 0 based,
meaning the control port is ‘0’,
additional ports are 1,2,3….
dhcp_mode –
0 – Do not use DHCP. Use the IP set
by the factory or using the net-
ip or net-config command.
1 – Try to use DHCP. If unavailable,
use the IP set by the factory or
using the net-ip or net-
config command.
Get DHCP mode for port 1:
#NET-DHCP?1<CR>
NET-GATE
Set gateway IP.
A network gateway
connects the device via
another network and
maybe over the Internet.
Be careful of security
issues. For proper settings
consult your network
administrator.
COMMAND
#NET-GATE ip_address<CR>
FEEDBACK
~nn@NET-GATE ip_address<CR><LF>
ip_address – Format:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Set the gateway IP address to
192.168.0.1:
#NET-
GATE192.168.000.001<CR
