This section provides an overview of the DeviceMaster RTS configuration.
Depending upon how you plan on communicating to the DeviceMaster RTS will
determine what procedures you need to perform to configure the RTS. Refer to the
installation document for your operating system for an overview of the advantages
of MAC or IP addressing. See
Documentation
to locate the appropriate document.
All RTS models have the following network settings from the factory.
•
IP address: 192.168.250.250
•
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
•
Gateway address: 192.168.250.1
If you are planning on using an IP address to control the RTS, you should take into
consideration how you plan on using the serial ports. The ports can be configured
with COM or TTY characteristics and as sockets.
•
To configure the ports for COM or TTY characteristics, you must install an
NS-Link driver. After configuring the IP address and the port characteristics,
you can also configure the socket characteristics using the NS-Link
SocketServer. See Locating the NS-Link Drivers and Installation
Documentation (below) for details.
•
To configure the ports for only socket characteristics, you will use Redboot to
program the IP address and then configure the socket characteristics using
SocketServer. See the
download the latest copy of the guide at,
Setup_Docs/Config_Network/Config_Network.pdf.
If you are planning on using a MAC address to communicate with the
DeviceMaster RTS, the RTS must be on the same network segment as the host
server. To use MAC addressing, install one of the NS-Link device drivers below.
