  • Page 14: Power-Up The Lan Module

    3.3 Power-up the LAN Module The LAN module will automatically detect if it is connected to or disconnected from a network. It will also automatically look for a network server and receive or create an IP address. It will also broadcast its IP address and hostname to all other devices on the network.

    LAN computer. A custom hostname can be created through the web page (see section 5.5.2) or SNMP. For example, if the hostname is changed to “TDK-LAMBDA”, a control program can send a command to “TDK-LAMBDA”. The Hostname can be up to 15 characters. First character must be a letter. Last character must be a letter or digit.

  • Page 30: Programming Using Visa Drivers

    6. PROGRAMMING USING VISA DRIVERS 6.1 VISA Description In the test and measurement industry, Virtual Instrument Software Architecture (VISA) is a popular framework that includes hardware drivers, configuration utilities and connection managers. A variety of communication busses are supported. VISA drivers are available from several instrument vendors.

  • Page 31: Programming Using Sockets

    7. PROGRAMMING USING SOCKETS 7.1 Socket Description The VISA drivers for the HFE LAN module with LAN are popular in the Test and Measurement world. However, some customers cannot use VISA because of installation or licensing issues or because the controller (i.e.: industrial PLC) does not have support for VISA. If you cannot use VISA drivers, then the HFE LAN offers socket connections.

  • Page 32: Input Buffer Requirements

    7.4 Input Buffer Requirements With a controller using TCP or UDP sockets, the module can receive commands much faster than it can process the commands. To make sure the HFE LAN is not overloaded, it is required that the controller sometimes sends a query and then waits for the response. The response is the acknowledgement from HFE LAN that it has finished processing all commands.

    9. TROUBLESHOOTING LAN Status LED Stays Red If LAN status LED stays red, then the module is not connecting to the network. Verify the LAN cable is connected to an active network. Look at the front panel link LED (part of the RJ-45 connector, see section 1.3) and verify it is green. If the LED is not lit, then the LAN cable is not connected properly.
