Enova DGX 100 Series and Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 Differences

The Enova DGX 100 Series has incorporated a number of technological advancements which resulted in changes that may be of
interest to users of previous Enova DGX products. In order to assist these users, we have included the table below which captures
some of the main system differences (highlighted cells represent changes that may affect programming code in existing systems).

• The DGX Master and each endpoint device
consumes an IP address on the Public LAN
• Endpoint ICSLAN ports pass Public IP
Telnet to any point on the Public LAN as long as
the PC is on the Public LAN
IPv4 only

Telnet interface supports DGX_SHELL (default)
and bcs commands.
(see section on page 243)
Does not support Local Presets
Case sensitive (more secure)
Possible timing differences (depends on program
variables)
Settable via DIP switch on CPU faceplate
• Defaults to Auto-setup automatic binding of
each device on the Private LAN (page 25)
• Traditional binding supported if Auto-setup is
disabled in the System Configuration interface
Status page
• In Auto-setup, endpoints are given an address
per I/O channel (see page 25)
• With Auto-setup disabled, traditional device
address rules apply
• In Auto-setup, the DGX Master consumes a
single Public IP address but all endpoints are
given predefined Private LAN addresses
(see page 25)
• With Auto-setup disabled, each endpoint gets
a Public IP address
• Endpoint ICS LAN ports ONLY pass Public IP
• The Master and switcher always have Private
LAN addresses:
• DGX Master: 198.18.0.1
• DGX Switcher: 198.18.128.1
WARNING: The master Public IP must NEVER
use a 198.18.x.x subnet. Doing so will prevent
the 5002 device from coming online.
In Auto-setup, can ONLY telnet to endpoints
when connected directly to the endpoint's
ICS LAN port so that your PC receives an IP
address on the Private LAN
• IPv4 and IPv6
• Wired 802.1x security for protected networks
