Explanations Communication Protocol
Explanation
Setup for serial (SER1) or LAN
communication.
= Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol.
If set to Off, the IP address is provided
by the user, see IPAddr1 to 4. The user
can ask the network administrator for
a suitable IP address. If set to On, an
IP address is dynamically sought
throughout the provided network.
Enter the IP address divided into four
blocks, example IP default Address:
192.168.0.1.
SubNet mask for network
configuration.
This parameter is read only, no
changes possible.
If Gateway is used in network, the
Gateway IP address (switch, hub) has
to be entered.
The unique MAC Address for the
PAL-xt System is read and entered
into this PAL-xt communication
protocol.
This is a read only parameter field.

Establishing Communication with Computer
Remarks
If serial communication is selected, all
other parameters in PAL-xt Firmware
Communication class are ignored.
It is advisable to use a fixed IP
address, set the DHCP parameter to
Off.
In this mode the PAL-xt System
always has the same fixed IP address.
Troubleshooting is easier for the
network administrator. See also
special remarks below.
The IP address is a fixed PAL-xt
System address. The IP address must
be provided by the network
administrator.
The SubNet mask must be provided by
the network administrator.
The network administrator must be
informed about this setting. The port
must be cleared of firewall protection
to enable communication.
Gateway is used if independent
networks need to communicate
interactively. Communication within
the network is provided by a hub or
switch, defined as Gateway.
The MAC address is provided by the
Ethernet communication hardware.
The address is also visible beside the
readout from the terminal on the label
affixed to the Ethernet module on the
PCB APR module.
