Example 2. Wired Network connection to the LANCNC using a router
The diagram below shows a wired network configuration using a network router. The
router connects multiple networking devices together.
The IP address of the router is required to setup the LANCNC. There may be additional
required changes on the router. The following are suggested settings for the router:
DHCP enabled (On)
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
IP Pool Starting Address 192.168.2.2
IP Pool Ending Address 192.168.2.100
Using these settings on the router will allow computers on the network to automatically
get their own IP addresses in the range of 192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.100. It also leaves
192.168.2.101 and above to be available to static IP address like the LANCNC-RMT
devices. It is important to note that only one device can use an IP address at a time. The
router, computers, printers, and LANCNC devices need to have their own number in the
network range provided by the IP address and Subnet Mask. In the suggested settings
above, the only address available to the network devices are between 192.168.2.1 and
192.168.2.254. The following is an example of IP addresses that could exist:
192.168.2.1 is the Belkin Routers IP address (fixed in the router settings)
192.168.2.2 is a desktop computer IP address (automatically provided by the DHCP)
192.168.2.3 is a laptop computer IP address (automatically provided by the DHCP)
192.168.2.4 is a printer IP address (automatically provided by the DHCP)
192.168.2.101 is a Calmotion LANCNC IP address (set in LANCNC.INI on the SD card)
192.168.2.102 is a Calmotion LANCNC IP address (set in LANCNC.INI on the SD card)
192.168.2.103 is a Calmotion LANCNC IP address (set in LANCNC.INI on the SD card)
