spond to the IP address of the MTX micro. The subnet mask is the same as
that of the MTX micro. We recommend the following settings:
● IP Address → 192.168.142.251
● Subnet Mask → 255.255.255.0
● Standard gateway → no entries
Fig.5-7: Configuring the IP address in the PC
To ensure that the IP address is used, you should restart the PC
after having set the address. Do not forget to change the address
again before connecting the PC to a different network.
We recommend that you note down the original network settings of the PC
before changing them.
Original PC settings:
● IP Address →__ .__ .__ .__
● Subnet Mask →__ .__ .__ .__
● Standard gateway →__ .__ .__ .__
After having configured the IP address, you can carry out a communication test.
The following figure shows the steps required for testing communication be‐
tween the system and the PC.
1. After a project has been opened, communication mode initially is set to
"offline". For example, the "NC configuration" and "NC file system" nodes
are gray, i.e., "inactive".
2. Click on the icon (blue) to switch communication with the MTX micro to
online.
3. Communication with the MTX micro is checked.
