FINS/TCP Connection Setup
The functions of the buttons are as follows.
Item Contents Default
No. Shows the connection number. This is a network API
used when TCP is used for the FINS communica-
tions service. Up to 2 can be used at a time, and
they are identified by connection numbers 1 to 2.
The Ethernet Option Board can thus simultaneously
execute the FINS communications service by TCP
with up to 2 remote nodes.

IP Address • When the Ethernet Option Board is used as a server:
If the option is selected to use IP addresses to pro-
tect, set the IP addresses as required at clients
from which connection is permitted. If not set for
those connections, the default setting can be used.
• When the Ethernet Option Board is used as a client:
Set the IP address for the remote Ethernet Unit
(i.e., the server) that is to be connected by
FINS/TCP. It is required that an IP address be set
for the remote Ethernet Unit.
0.0.0.0
Auto-allocated
FINS node
If the client (normally a personal computer) applica-
tion supports FINS/TCP, and if FINS node addresses
are not fixed, the client will take 0 as its node
address. Then, when a FINS command arrives, the
number set here (from 251 to 252) will automatically
be allocated as the client’s FINS node address.
From 251 to
252, for
