6 Network Configuration Options
Remote connection to Ngara is achieved through the device's Ethernet port. Care must be taken to ensure Ngara
has not disabled the network connection interface before attempting to connect to the device. This can be easily
checked by visually inspecting the lights provided on the Ethernet connector once a physical connection to a network
has been established.
In the event the Ethernet interface is disabled, it can be re-enabled by disabling the ancillary timeout delay (Refer to
Section 4.4.2) or by pushing the wake-up button.
The following sections cover only some of the allowable configurations. Due to the vast number of different network
configurations possible, not all possibilities have been covered.
Consult with your network administrator for details on any existing network, and the options available
for adding an additional device to the network.
6.1 Communication
Ngara uses the port(s) shown on Table 24 for communication.
6.2 Connection to PC
Ngara can be connected directly to a free Ethernet port on a modern desktop PC.
When using this method of connectivity, the suggested configuration options are show in Table 25.
Linking to Ngara is then achieved by entering the IP address allocated to the unit. The address allocated by Ngara
can be viewed through the LCD, refer to Section 4.4.3.3. See Section 5.3 for details on using the Remote Host
application to link to a Ngara.
Contact your network administrator to ensure the Windows Auto-IP configuration utility is enabled.
