[003] Ethernet Gateway IP Address
Default (000.000.000.000)
Enter the Ethernet gateway IP address of the communicator. The gateway IP address is required when a router is used on the
local network to reach the destination IP address specified in section [001]. Format is 4 fields, each field is a 3 digit decimal num-
ber. Valid range: 000-255.
NOTE: If DHCP is enabled, the DHCP server will assign the gateway IP address for this section and the programmed value will
be ignored.
[004] Receiver Supervision Interval
Default (0087/135)
When receiver supervision is enabled (ON) in section [005] toggle option [3], the unit sends heartbeats to Ethernet receiver 1 to
test the communications path. Use this section to set the interval time (in seconds) when heartbeats will be sent to the receiver.
Valid range 000A-FFFF seconds. If the programmed value is less than (000A/10) seconds, supervision is disabled.
Receiver Window: This is the supervision timeout that must be configured at the central station receiver.
l
Recommended Values: This is the recommended heartbeat interval that should be programmed into the communicator.

[005] System Toggle Options
[1] Ethernet Receiver 1 Supervised Default (OFF)
ON: Ethernet receiver 1 will be supervised and heartbeats will be sent to Ethernet receiver 1 based on the supervision
interval programmed in section [004].
OFF: Ethernet receiver 1 will not be supervised. When disabled, heartbeat 1 is sent to the Ethernet receiver once every
hour, regardless of supervision type (heartbeat 1 or 2). The heartbeat is resent every 5 seconds until ACK. If no event or
heartbeat ACK is received after (receiver supervision interval + 75 seconds), supervisory trouble is indicated.
NOTE: Ethernet receiver 2 can not be supervised.
[2] Reserved
[3] Supervision Type Default (OFF)
ON: Heartbeat 1 (commercial supervision). This supervision type is suitable for applications where swap detection is
required on the supervisory packet.
OFF: Heartbeat 2 (residential supervision). This supervision type is suitable for applications where supervision of the
communication path to the receiver is required. (no swap detection).
NOTE: Commercial supervision is more data intensive than residential supervision and should only be used when required to
meet the approval for the installation.
[4]-[5] Reserved
[6] Remote Firmware Upgrade Default (ON)
ON: The communicator module firmware can be remotely upgraded using the Ethernet.
OFF: The communicator module firmware can not be remotely upgraded. Local firmware upgrade is still possible.
[7] Alternate Test Transmissions Default (OFF).
ON: When the periodic test transmission interval occurs, the test transmission will alternate between being sent to the
primary and secondary receivers with each test transmission interval.
OFF: When the periodic test transmission interval occurs, the test transmission will be sent to the programmed receivers,
based on the settings of the periodic test transmission reporting codes.
[8] Reserved
[006] System Toggle Options 2
[1] Ethernet 1 receiver enabled. Default (ON).
ON: Ethernet receiver 1 is enabled.
OFF: Ethernet receiver 1 is disabled.
[2] Ethernet receiver 2 is enabled. Default (ON).
ON: Ethernet receiver 2 is enabled.
OFF: Ethernet receiver 2 is disabled.
[3]-[7] Reserved
[8] Network Trouble Suppression. Default (OFF).
ON: GSM/Ethernet/Supervisory troubles follow a delay timer as programmed in section [226].
OFF: GSM/Ethernet/Supervisory troubles are not suppressed.
[007] DNS Server IP 1
Default (000.000.000.000)
Enter the IP address for DNS server 1. Format is 4 fields, each field is a 3-digit decimal. Valid range: 000-255.
NOTE: If no value is programmed and DHCP is used, the DHCP server will configure the address. If an address is programmed
and DHCP is used, the programmed address will be used instead of the DHCP address.
[008] DNS Server IP 2
Default (000.000.000.000)
Enter the IP address for DNS server 2. Format is 4 fields, each field is a 3-digit decimal. Valid range: 000-255.
