APPENDIX 9 Establishing Connectivity Introduction Overview This appendix explains how to establish an Ethernet link between a Windows host computer and an AMP1-16V by two different methods. Either method may be used. Topics Topics Page Introduction Connectivity Options Connecting to a LAN Connecting Directly Setting a Static IP in the AMP1-16V Setting a Static IP in a Windows XP Computer... -
Page 122: Connectivity Options
Connectivity Options The fastest and simplest way to establish connectivity to your AMP1-16V-MD Series monitor is through a LAN (local area network) that includes a DHCP server, which will provide Ethernet settings for both the host computer and the AMP1-16V automatically. The alternative is to set up a direct connection between the host computer and the unit through a crossover cable. -
