Tcp/Ip Features - ACT ACTPRO 4000 Operating And Installation Instructions

ACTpro 4000 Ethernet TCP/IP supports the following:
1. Ethernet 100Base-T communications (Default).
2. Ethernet 10Base-T communications.
3. DHCP IP address configuration (Default).
4. Static IP address configuration.
5. NetBIOS Name.
Ethernet 100Base-T/10Base-T networking
The ACTpro 4000 can be connected to 100BT or 10BT ethernet network. By the default the ACT4000 expects to
be connected to 100BT network. If the ACTpro 4000 is installed on a 10BT network, change the Network
Speed setting from the Installer Menu->TCP/IP Settings->Network Speed.
DHCP or Static configuration of the IP address
The default operation of the ACTpro 4000 is to use the DHCP server to obtain its IP address. When the
controller is connected to the network, it will obtain its IP address automatically from the DHCP server.
The IP address obtained may be viewed from the Installer Menu->TCP/IP Settings->IP Address.
If it is required to use a static or fixed IP address, then DHCP should be disabled. Set Enable DHCP to N
from the Installer Menu->TCP/IP Settings->Enable DHCP.
NetBIOS Name
The NetBIOS name of the ACTpro 4000 can be used instead of the IP Address for communication with
ACTWinPro. The NetBIOS name is printed on a label on the ACTpro 4000 PCB. It can also be viewed from
the Installer Menu->TCP/IP Settings->NetBIOS Name.
