4.4. Configuring the NS-Link Driver for Windows
This subsection provides a configuration overview for the NS-Link driver. For detailed information or if the
ICDM-RX/TCP is on a different physical segment, refer to the help system.
The ICDM-RX/TCP must be connected to the local network segment or directly to a NIC on the host system to
operate in MAC mode to perform the following configuration steps.
1. Access the Windows Drivers Management Console using the desktop shortcut or under the start menu >
Pepperl+Fuchs Comtrol>Windows Driver Management Console.
2. Highlight the Device Name of the ICDM-RX/TCP that you want to configure.
3. Select the MAC address from the drop-down list or enter the address from the MAC address label on the
ICDM-RX/TCP. If you programmed the IP address using PortVision DX, the IP address displays in the IP
Mode text box after you select the MAC address.
Note: If you enter the MAC address, make sure that you use the correct format, for example: 00 C0 4E xx
xx xx or 00 0D 81 xx xx xx. A space must separate each pair of digits. The MAC address is
located on a label on the ICDM-RX/TCP or you can view it using PortVision DX.
If the appropriate MAC address is not displayed in the drop-down list, then it can be one of the following
reasons:
• Not on the same network segment
• ICDM-RX/TCP not powered on or connected
