The MRC 565 has one Ethernet Port, E1. You can connect to the Ethernet Port by connecting a
laptop computer’s Ethernet port to the front panel Ethernet Connector. Use the Operator RS232
Port to set the IP as shown below.
IPCONFIG,E1,192.168.10.1 Factory default
Set the IP address of the Laptop to a fixed address:
IP ADDRESS 192.168.10.10
MASK 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY Don’t care
Before you can connect to an Ethernet Port, ensure that an Ethernet Port is assigned using the
following command.
ASSIGN,E1F1,4,ASCII,30
This assigns Ethernet Function E1 to Port 4 using ASCII protocol. Note that this port is not the
MNT function.
You can now start XTERM. In XTERM:
Select Device Type MCC 6100 SDR.
Set to connect to IP 192.168.10.1
Set the Port Number to 4000
An Ethernet connection to the MRC 565 is much faster than the RS 232 ports and really speeds
up the download of the Operating System (OS) software.
