EB200 Manual

4.2.2 Remote control via LAN interface (option)

The default values of the interface parameters of the EB200 are configured by host name and IP-
address, respectively.
89.10.11.23 and port: 5555
For more information see Annex A, interfaces.
1. Connect the EB200 and the controller by using an Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors. For
direction connection to a network adapter card use a cross-cable. If the EB200 is connected to a
network either via a hub or directly, a 1-to-1 cable is required.
2. On the controller TCP/IP must be installed. The network adapter card must be set to half-duplex.
3. When the EB200 is operated within a network, is must be set to a network-compatible IP address.
The network administrator will be able to provide further information on this. Also see Annex D.
4. The ping command can be used to easily check whether the controller is able to make connection to
EB200. Just enter the command "ping <IP-Address>" (eg "ping 89.10.11.23") in the DOS box.
5. By using a Telnet application configured with the interface parameters of EB200 commands can be
sent to and responses be received from EB200.
6. To test the connection, *idn? can be entered, for example, to query the EB200 identification.
Note:
If previously a connection had been made to another unit with the same IP address, it may be
necessary to delete the corresponding entry in the ARP table by entering the command "ARP -d <IP
address>" in the DOS box.

4.3 Configuring the remote control

The device can at the same time be operated via the front panel and the remote-control interface. This
operation is called "competing control" and is characterized by the fact that both the local operator and
a detached operator have full access to all device functions. Moreover, any operator setting can be
monitored by the remote-control interface.
"Competing control" can be switched over in favour of remote control via the remote control command
System:Klock ON (see Annex A). In this case, manual control is fully disabled and has to be enabled
by the remote-control System:Klock OFF.

4.3.1 Setting the IP-A and port number

If EB200 is equipped with the remote-control interface EB200R2 (RS232 interface) parameters baud
rate, IP address and port number can be set in submenu SETUP REMOTE.
The setting of the IP address and the port number becomes immediately effective. After changing the
baud rate, the device must be switched on/off.
