Adding and removing devices
For the following procedures, work in the Used devices section.
To manually add an offline device, click Add.
To remove a device, select the appropriate device, and then click Remove.
Assigning offline devices to physical devices
Associate used devices with physical devices. This is mainly important for manually added devices.
Devices that were added via the Available devices table are automatically re-connected as soon as
they appear on the network and do not need to be associated any more. An associated device obtains
the settings of the preconfigured used device.
To associate devices:
1. In the Used devices table, click the appropriate offline device.
2. In the Available devices table, click the appropriate physical device.
3. Click Assign. The physical device appears in the Used devices table.
4. (Optional) In the Used devices table, click the device name, and then changed it (limited to 30
characters).
Configuring the connection options
You can configure the control-traffic limit, the network, and the control ports. The device can be
controlled by means of the USB or the ETH control port. When both control ports are connected, the
USB port has priority. The device can switch between control ports in real time (a time lag may occur).
To configure the connection options:
1. In the Navigation pane, expand the device.
2. Click Connection options.
3. Select appropriate values for Bandwidth and Maximum packet size of the control traffic.
4. If you want to use the TAP mode, select TAP. From the drop-down list, choose the
appropriate bit rate.
5. For network and control ports, from the IP assignment, choose how the device gets the IP
address:
Disabled: No IP address is assigned.
DHCP: The DHCP server assigns the IP address automatically.
Static: You must enter the IP address manually.
Typically, an IP address is only assigned to one port that is intended to be used for controlling
DANEO 400.
