3-9-2 Ethernet
Port specifications
When Ethernet perform communication control of the laser marker, use an Ethernet port.

• Although the cable length between the devices is specified as 100 m at maximum in the Ethernet standard, use of cable
length below 10 m is recommended to avoid communication failure caused by noise and device malfunction.
• The communication control of the laser marker through the Ethernet should be performed in a secure network
environment.
• Depending on the combination, there are cases where IP Address and Subnet Mask values cannot be set even if they
are within the setting range.
• Make sure that the IP address for the laser marker on the network is not overlapping the IP address for the PC.
• If Ethernet is not used for the external control, connect nothing to the Ethernet port.
• For the details of the setting method of communication conditions, refer to "3-2-2 Communication condition setting"
(P.75).
