Configuring The Ethernet Parameters - Intermec Trakker Antares 2460 User Manual

Configuring the Ethernet Parameters

The 2461 terminals contain an Ethernet card. With this option, your terminal can
communicate to a host or any device on an Ethernet network.
You need to configure these network parameters:
Network Parameter
Network activate
Controller IP address (UDP Plus)
Host IP address (TCP/IP)
Terminal IP address
Network port (UDP Plus)
Network port (TCP/IP)
You scan bar code labels to set these parameters. For a detailed definition of these
parameters, see Chapter 4, "Operating the Terminal in a Network." For more
information on scanning the bar codes, see Chapter 8, "Configuration Command
Reference."
Note: If the 2461 is on a different IP subnetwork from the DCS 300 or host, you must
also configure the default router and subnet mask.
To configure the T2461 for an Ethernet network
1. Configure the DCS 300 (UDP Plus) or host (TCP/IP). For help with the server, see
the DCS 300 System Manual (Part No. 067296).
2. Configure the terminal. Scan the appropriate bar codes from Chapter 8,
"Configuration Command Reference." You will find a table listing the page
numbers of all of the Ethernet network communications that you need to configure
on page 8-4.
The 2461 will now try to establish communications with the DCS 300 or the host.
Once the terminal connects, the login or initial screen for your application appears and
the Network Connect status light remains on. You can begin using the terminal to
collect data.
