Virtual Console

ThinkIO-P (for CoDeSys with Target Visualization) supports two consoles:

• Console 1: login text console (operating system command line)

• Console 2: graphic console (used for CoDeSys Target Visualization)

The default resolution of the graphic console is 640 x 480 pixels, 16-bit color depth. To switch

between the consoles, use the keys <ALT><F1> and <ALT><F2>. The resolution can be

changed with the "vgaconfig" tool or the resolution can also be changed via Web Based Man-

agement. The settings for graphic console must corrrespond to those supported by the monitor

display in use.

The ThinkIO-P ports X8 and X9 provide interfacing for an Ethernet network. The port X8 is con-

figured for BootP and the port X9 is configured with the IP address of 192.168.0.50 at the fac-

tory.

Use of the Ethernet interface requires that the IP addresses of the local host PC and the

ThinkIO-P be known, and the IP address of the gateway if the ThinkIO-P and the local host PC

are in different networks. If requred, consult the system administrator for this information.

The following figures illustrate the basic types of network connections that are possible with the

ThinkIO-P.
