    2.4.3 LAN Interface The SP-ICE 2 control card is designed as LAN component. Via PCI-bus it can be controlled from the PC, in which it is installed. Connected to a LAN, it can be controlled from every other PC within the same network. Normally the total communication with the connected PCs is per- formed via the LAN interface.

  • Page 15: Interface For Marking-On-The-Fly-Option

    With the option Marking-On-The-Fly objects can be marked in motion, for example when mov- ing along a conveyor. The movement is measured via up to three position encoders. Based on these moving informations, the SP-ICE 2 control card is able to adapt the marking process to the actual motion.
  • Page 16: Interface For Slave Control

    2.4.7 Interface for Slave Control At this 26-pin D-SUB female connector, up to three RAYLASE SP-ICE2 slave boards can be connected. This makes it possible to operate up to four laser beam scan units with one SP-ICE 2 control card in parallel. For further information please contact RAYLASE.

    3.2.1 Ethernet LAN with automatically assigned IP-Address (DHCP) The following procedure describes how to connect the SP-ICE 2 in a LAN that uses a DHCP- Server to automatically assign network addresses. This is the default configuration as shipped. The steps have to be performed only when to return to the DHCP mode.
  • Page 22: Direct Connection With Automatically Assigned Ip-Address (Apipa)

    3.2.3 Direct connection with automatically assigned IP-Address (APIPA) The following procedure describes how to connect the SP-ICE 2 directly to a PC. Thereby the network addresses for the PC and the control card will be assigned automatically in the range of the APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing).
