5.2 Configuring MA 430 Controller Network Parameters
In order to monitor the MA 430 controller and all the devices it hosts, it is required to assign a
static IP address to each MA 430 controller. This is achieved through a local connection and
configuration using a terminal emulation application such as HyperTerminal.
To configuring the MA 430 IP communication parameters
1. Connect the Laptop (or any computer) on which a terminal application (such as
HyperTerminal) is installed, to the MA 430 controller RS232 front panel connector using
cable NMS-PC-DB9.
2. Launch the terminal emulation application and set the communication settings as follows:
9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control. The following figure shows the
HyperTerminal Port Settings dialog.
