Use this info later on for subnet mask alignment and to avoid using the same IP address twice. The IP address of the Remote Panel RP-3000XT must be different but in the same network (subnet)! The description in this chapter applies in a similar way also to other RP3000XT capable devices, like LS-6XT.

4.2.2 The SETTINGS Screen The RP-3000XT must be in the same network as the devices for remote control. So it has to be configured for the same subnet mask and an IP address of this network. The IP address must be different from any other used in this address range.

CAUTION! Avoid using the same IP address twice! By mistake it is possible to assign the same IP address for Remote Panel RP-3000XT same as configured for the easYgen-3000XT or LS-6. In this case the last configured device (RP-3000XT) will work properly but the so far configured device (easYgen-XT) will be invisible on the Ethernet: Load Share and ToolKit do not work on this device! ...

4.2.2 The SETTINGS Screen Multiple Genset applications all devices, the RP-3000XT recognizes, are visible in the MULTICAST screen. If there are more than 15, a scroll bar appears to navigate to them. Recommendation for multiple genset applications: Adjust the IP-Address following one relevant numbering scheme of your application e.g., the generator numbers.
HMI. The difference between these two devices is, that the RP-3000XT remotely controls the operation of the easYgen-3000XT Series. The level of control is not depending on the RP-3000XT device but on the password level. RP-3000XT can access all password levels of the easYgen-3000XT. This is also correct for the LS-6XT.
