Establish a connection to the PC in the Free Communication dialog window
The FPM has a fixed IP address that is specified on the type plate:
•
If the FPM is connected directly to the PC, enter the fixed IP address in the menu Communication
> Free Communication.
•
If the FPM is connected via a network, the FPM retrieves a variable IP address in the network
for around one minute.
This variable IP address can be read off with the provided software, "PrimesFindlp" and entered
into the Communication > Free Communication.
•
To connect the FPM to the network using the fixed IP address, first turn on the FPM and then
connect the network cable to the FPM.
Then enter the fixed IP address in the menu Communication > Free Communication.
