Ethernet Connections

The two Ethernet ports allow the enclosure to be connected to10/100base T Ethernet
networks. Other IP devices can then connect to the enclosure via TCP/IP.
An Ethernet device connected to a single IQ rack has access to all devices on the RollCall
network. This interface can be used to connect a PC running RollCall.
Computer
Infrastructure
A PC can control multiple RollCall networks by connecting via RollProxy.
Setting IP Network Details
The Gateway is equipped with two Ethernet LAN ports. Port 1 has been assigned a factory-set
static IP address, which allows an Ethernet connection to be established in order to configure
IP details if DHCP is not available on the customer network.
Port 2 is set to DHCP by default, and so can be used only if DHCP is available. In this case, an IP
address will be assigned automatically, and can be read via the card front panel controls. See
Front (Gateway Card) Controls and LEDs
Follow the steps below to set IP details via Port 1. See the RollCall Control Panel Operation
Manual for further information, if required.
