4.4 "Network Settings" page
On the "Network Settings" page, you can specify the network settings for the device that you
will use to assign the parameters of the device for data communication via the Ethernet port:
Note
The HMI device can only be used in Ethernet networks.
The HMI device has client functionality in the local network. This means that users can
access files of a node with TCP/IP server functionality from the HMI device via the local
network. However, you cannot, for example, access files of the HMI device from a PC via the
local network.
Type of address assignment
● To obtain the addresses automatically via DHCP, select "Automatic IP-Address".
● To determine the addresses manually, select "Static Address".
If you have selected manual address assignment, enter the corresponding addresses under
"IP", "Netmask" and under "Gateway", as required.
NOTICE
IP address must be unique
An address conflict and malfunctions may occur if more than one device is assigned the
same IP address in the local network.
Assign a unique IP address to each HMI device in the local network.
NTP-Server: The time server synchronizes the time of day using the "Network Time
Protocol" NTP. Enter the address of the time server.
MAC-Address: For information only.
