2 Methods for Connecting and Communicating with External Devices
l Checking the Communication Status
Use the ping command to check whether or not the Sensor Controller exists on the Ethernet net-
work.
With it, check that the Sensor Controller IP address has been correctly set and is correctly connect-
ed to the Ethernet network.
Additional Information
The ping command uses the ICMP protocol to send a response request to a device connected
through an Ethernet network and determines the time required to respond to that request.
If you properly receive a response from the destination device, the network connection and net-
work settings are correctly set.
1
Connect the Sensor Controller and a computer with an Ethernet cable.
Set the high-order digits of the computer IP address to the same values as the Sensor Control-
ler and the low-order one digit to a different value.

2
Open the Windows command prompt on the computer and perform the ping command.
At the > prompt, type ping, followed by a space and the Sensor Controller IP address, and then
press Enter.

After a few seconds, Reply from followed by the IP address of the Sensor Controller (e.g.,
10.5.5.100) are displayed, it means that the Sensor Controller is connected to the Ethernet net-
work properly.
