Operation Overview
33
3.4 Ethernet Link
The TomoScan FOCUS LT must be linked to the workstation through an Ethernet
network. To make this possible, the TomoScan FOCUS LT is equipped with internal
Ethernet hardware. For a network configuration using a network hub, a standard
Ethernet cable can be used. For a point-to-point configuration, an Ethernet crossover
(category 5e or higher) cable is used.
The TomoScan FOCUS LT is designed to be used with a 100BASE-T Fast Ethernet
network.
The TomoScan FOCUS LT has no internal disk drive. The instrument must therefore
be linked, through an Ethernet network, to a workstation running a Bootp server
software application before it can be turned on, so that all the necessary data for
proper functioning can be loaded. Once booted, the internal RPC (remote procedure
call) server of the TomoScan FOCUS LT connects to the workstation (that is, the client)
through the Ethernet network. For more details on installing and using the acquisition
software relating to the TomoScan FOCUS LT, refer to the TomoView Reference Manual.
