Setting Serial Communication Parameters - Advantech EKI-1221 User Manual

MAC Address:
The MAC address is for the local system to identify and locate each serial device
servers. This MAC address is already set before delivery from factory, hence no
need for further configuration.
IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway:
The IP address identifies your Modbus data gateway on the global network. Each
EKI-1221/1222/1224 has the same default IP address 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 for dual
Ethernet ports. Obtain these specific IP addresses from your network administrator
and then configure each Advantech Modbus data gateway with individual IP
addresses, related Subnet Mask and Gateway Setting.
Note When you have finished the configuration of these settings for each cate-
gory, please press the "Apply" button in order to make these settings effec-
tive on the Modbus data gateway. (Will reboot your Modbus data gateway
immediately)
