Station Address; Overview Of Multicast Address - Toshiba TC-net 100 Instruction Manual

When this setting is selected, it can be set freely from the engineering tool,
and the value has precedence over the value of the station address setting
switches.
However, the following cannot be used in the IP address.
• Addresses starting with 127(7Fh)
• Addresses with all bits of the network address are "0" or "1"
• Addresses with all bits of the host address are "0" or "1"
The value of the subnet mask consists of a series of "1" from the most
significant bit.

3.2.2 Station address

Use the station address setting switches to set the station address.
Any station address can be set; however, it must be unique within the
system. The available setting range for station addresses is from 01(h) to
FE(h)(1 to 254).
When the IP address type is [Tool setting], it has precedence over the
value of the station address setting switches. In this case as well, it is
recommended matching the lowermost value of the specified IP address
(5 in the case of 172.16.64.5) and the value of the station address setting
switches. For [Tool setting], set the station address in the dotted decimal
notation using the engineering tool.
