4.5.2 PORT SETTINGS
The IMU UDP default port is 9500.
The configuration software default port is 9501.
Each port can be changed to a User defined port number if required from the SMC IMU Configuration
Software.
4.5.3 TARGET IP ADDRESSES
By entering a specific Target IP address the motion sensor will transmit, unicast, its message to one
single receiver with this IP address. Only this receiver will be able to receive the message from the
motion sensor. It is possible to have 2 Target IPs where 2 devices on the network can configure and
read data from the motion sensor at the same time. The motion sensor will not communicate with
any other devices with different IP addresses than the one being selected in the Target IP fields.
Target IP 1 is set to broadcast the motion sensor data by default. This means that when the motion
sensor Ethernet is connected to the network all devices on the network will receive data and
communicate with the motion sensor. Set the Target IP 1 to 255.255.255.255 to set the motion
sensor to broadcast. As an option entering xxx.xxx.xxx.255 where the x is the local network IP will
limit the broadcast from the motion sensor to within the sub network. By entering a single Target IP
address instead of the broadcast address, the motion sensor communication will be unicast and will
only be sent to the Target IP number.
Target IP 2 will allow a second device on the network to configure and read data from the Motion
Sensor. The Target 2 can only be enabled after Target IP 1 is defined with an IP address. Enter an IP
address in the Target IP 2 fields to enable unicast or broadcast to a second target device or network.
Select Disable IP2 to disable the Target IP 2 feature. The Target IP 2 is disabled when the Target IP 2
fields are empty.
If Reset IP1 is selected for Target IP 1 the IP address will be cleared and the Motion Sensor will revert
to the network broadcast default, 255.255.255.255
MAC Address; To read the MAC address of the Target IPs, click on the Ethernet advanced settings.
When the motion sensor is set to broadcast or if no Target device is found the MAC address will be
received as FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF. The MAC addresses are commonly used for creating firewall and port
forwarding rules.
