Mk2
MACHINERY PROTECTION SYSTEM (MPS) SOFTWARE
address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in dot-decimal notation) can be easily changed.
The product’s serial number is assigned in the factory during manufacture and
cannot be changed, but the product’s IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in
dot-decimal notation) can be changed to meet the requirements of a network.
The main window (centre) updates to display system information for the MPC4
Mk2
module.
In the main window, Network (centre) displays the information about the network
interface for the MPC4
Mk2
module.
4- In the Actions window (right), under Configuration, click IP settings.
The MPC4 module(s) IP settings window is displayed.
NOTE: If the MPC4 module(s) IP settings window does not display correctly and, for
example, a timeout message is displayed, then the IP (TCP and UDP) port
numbers required by the VibroSight software have probably not been added
as allowed ports to the exceptions list in Windows Firewall.
For further information, refer to the Getting started with VibroSight installation
guide.
5- To configure the IP settings for the MPC4
Mk2
module using a DHCP server:
Select the Use DHCP server option. Click Finish.
The MPC4
Mk2
module will communicate with the DHCP server in the background and a
unique IP address for the module will automatically be assigned.
The System Explorer view will update to show the new IP configuration information in the
Devices structure view. The module should now be accessible in your subnet.
To configure the IP settings for the MPC4
Mk2
module using a static IP address:
Select the Use static IP option, then enter the new IP address and Subnet mask (and
Default gateway, if used), in dot-decimal notation (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), for the MPC4
Mk2
module in the appropriate fields. Click Finish.
The MPC4
Mk2
module will communicate with the DHCP server in the background and a
unique IP address for the module will automatically be assigned.
The System Explorer will update to show the new IP configuration information in the
Devices structure view. However, this does not necessarily mean that the module is
accessible in your subnet.
6- To test if the MPC4
Mk2
module is accessible, at a Windows command prompt, type
ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx replacing xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the IP address just
configured.
If the module replies, this means it is in the same subnet as your computer and that it is
ready to be used.
NOTE: The fact that the MPC4
Mk2
module appears in the Devices tree structure of the
System Explorer does not mean that the module is in your subnet, as zeroconf
(the network discovery protocols implemented in VibroSight) can find
VibroSight-compatible devices all over a network. To be able to communicate
with the device, configure an IP address belonging to the same subnet as the
computer used for this communication.
