If the TC is configured as a System TC. The System TC is the TC that controls all other TCs included in a
PowerMACS system. It is it that ToolsTalk PowerMACS is connected to and that holds the setup of the
system
TC boot is the version of the TC Boot loader. "(B1)" or "(B2)" indicates which of the dual boot loaders,
"Boot 1" or "Boot 2" that where active during start up. See chapter: Prepare TC for download of software
for a description of the dual boot loaders.
For a System TC, more data may be displayed if clicking Additional Info in the View menu. This
additional data includes the name of the System, the number of stations, the total number of bolts, and the
number of TCs used by the system. It is always the actually used values of the parameters that are
displayed in the list, this is important to understand when changing net data parameters.
Note! Since the scan procedure uses broadcasts it will detect all TCs that are connected to your network
regardless of their IP address configuration.
However, this does not mean that you can connect to, or send all configuration commands, to all
TCs displayed in the list. The reason for this is that the normal communication between ToolsTalk
PowerMACS and a TC is done using TCP and UDP which requires the communicating nodes to be
on the same IP network, or that a route between the networks is known. Therefore whether or not
you can connect to a TC depends on its IP-address, net mask, and default gateway.
To help you detect this situation an UDP message is sent to each TC found after the scan
procedure. If the TC does not bounce this message back the node is marked as erroneous and the
cause is displayed in the field under list, or in the Com status field.
Changing IP-address configuration, preparation of System Software download and changing service data
settings may be done to multiple TCs at the same time. Select the TCs of interest by marking them in the
list. To select a range click on the first row, hold down the Shift key and click on the last. To select multiple
single items, hold down the Control key and click on the wanted items.
To modify the network settings press the Set Int Eth or Set Ext Eth button. This will open the
