7.2 Operation from QUADERA
This chapter provides instructions for setting up the GSD 320 system and the QMG 220,
which is internal to the system, and running the GSD 320 using the QUADERA Add-in.
These instructions assume that QUADERA 4.00 or higher is installed, that QUADERA is
licensed to use the GSD 320 Add-in, and that the computer and GSD 320 are connected
via a network or Ethernet crossover cable.
General Information
IP Addresses The GSD 320 system uses two IP addresses — one for the GSD 320 controller and
one for the QMG 220, which is internal to the system. Both IP addresses must be
set to the same network, using the same Network ID and partial Host ID. For
example, when setting the IP address of the GSD 320 and QMG 220, each is set in
the factory to a 192.168.x.x number.
If the GSD 320 is connected to a network, then the IP addresses of the GSD 320
and QMG 220 must be set to a network-based address that is available on the
network. The computer most likely acquires its IP address automatically so it is not
necessary to set an address on the computer. However, you will need to temporarily
set the computer’s IP address in steps 2 through 12 of System setup on page 45.
If the GSD 320 is directly connected to the computer, then the IP addresses of the
GSD 320 and QMG 220 must be set in the same range as the computer IP address.
The computer should be set to a fixed IP address when using the direct connection.
DHCP For the GSD 320 system, it is strongly recommended to set DHCP 'off' on the QMG 220.
If DHCP is left on, then each new assignment of an IP address (from the network) will
require the user to repeat steps 16-28 in System setup on page 45.
Refer to the QUADERA 'Readme' file for helpful information on “IP-Addresses” and
“Point-to-point connections”.
Software installation To install QUADERA, insert the QUADERA installation CD into the CD-ROM drive. The
installation procedure should start automatically after a few seconds.
If the installation procedure does not start within 30 seconds, the autostart function of the
drive may be disabled. In this case, use Windows Explorer
®
to access the CD-ROM drive
and execute the index.html file. Alternatively it is possible to execute the Setup.exe file
from the software folder on the QUADERA CD, in which case you must also read the
Readme.html file from the same software folder.
Refer to the QUADERA manual (QUADERA.pdf), located on the CD in the \Manuals
folder, for further information on installing QUADERA.
