automatically to the Thermal printer.
The DR 3900 supports communication in local networks. To
establish Ethernet communication in networks, special
configuration is required. The manufacturer recommends support
from a network administrator. Only use a shielded cable
(e.g. STP, FTP, S/FTP) with a maximum length of 20 m for the
Ethernet port. This section describes the setting options for the
photometer in relation to network communication.
The connection parameters must be configured for data transfer
to a PC or connection to a network.
1. Press PC & Printer in "Instrument Setup".
2. Press Network>Setup.
3. Press On.
4. Press IP address.
An IP address is used to send data from a sender to a
pre-defined recipient.
• If the IP for the DR 3900 is automatically issued in the
network, no further settings are necessary. A hostname
can optionally be assigned.
• If the instrument address is fixed, the connection must be
configured.
