Chapter 5 Setting Up the ETC2002 Configuring the Network
36 ETC2002 Network Communicator
New:
Network subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
New:
Network default gateway: 192.168.0.1
New:
Refer to your network administrator for the available IP address and correct
subnet mask and default gateway settings.
If you enable DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the ETC2002
obtains the network settings automatically from your network server when
the ETC2002 restarts. You must know the actual IP address assigned to
your ETC2002 in order to specify the device network address in PAS or
another application software. Use the stat ip command to view the actual IP
address assigned to your device.
NOTES:
1. If you use the modem interface for dial-out Internet connections, set
the default gateway address to 0.0.0.0. See Dial-Out Connections
in
Chapter 3 for more information on using dial-out networking.
2. When you change a network parameter, the ETC2002 restarts the
network to accept your new settings. If you configure your device
through telnet, your current connection will be lost and you will be
required to open a new session.
To view or change the ETC2002 TCP server port setting, type port and
press Enter.
>port
TCP service port: 502
New:
The TCP service port number defines the communication protocol for the
ETC2002 gateway that is used for master-slave communications over the
networks. See the table below for available port numbers.
Using PAS
To enter the Setup dialog, select the ETC2002 site from the list box on the
PAS toolbar, select Communications Setup from the Meter Setup menu, and
then click on the Network Setup tab.
