Installing the network adapter protocol
The network adapter protocol is the language the computer uses to com-
municate over the network. How you install the network adapter protocol
depends on the operating system and the adapter type.
• For Windows XP Professional or Windows 2000 Professional systems
using Ethernet or ARCNET adapters on a dedicated network, Tracer
Summit automatically installs support. It is only necessary to verify
the adapter settings (see “Verifying network adapter status and pro-
tocol for Windows XP Professional or Windows 2000 Professional” on
page 108).
• For Windows XP Professional or Windows 2000 Professional systems
using Ethernet adapters on a shared network, you may need to install
TCP/IP protocol (see “Installing TCP/IP protocol for BACnet/IP com-
munications on shared Ethernet networks” below).
Installing TCP/IP protocol for BACnet/IP
communications on shared Ethernet networks
Before installing TCP/IP, check the network settings for the adapter to
verify that TCP/IP is not already installed on the PC Workstation. Many
PC Workstations supplied by a customer already have TCP/IP protocols
installed on the machines and automatically bind this protocol to an
adapter when you install the adapter on the PC Workstation.
To install TCP/IP protocol on Windows XP Professional or Win-
dows 2000 Professional:
1. From the Windows Start menu, select Settings. Then, select Control
Panel.
2. For Windows 2000 Professional, double-click the Network and Dial-
up Connections icon. For Windows XP Professional, double-click the
Note:
The ISA ARCNET card is not supported by Windows XP Profes-
sional or Windows 2000 Professional.
