Setting Network Parameters without ESP
The following example is based on a default IP address of 169.254.33.228 for the MS-Connect 210 Ethernet module.
-Go to the Start menu, select Run, type cmd, and type Enter.
-Type ipconfig at the command prompt.
-Note the IP address of the host computer.
The command prompt will display a list similar to the following:
- Look for the default IP address in the Network Destination column. If it does not appear there, contact your IT department.
- At the command prompt, type telnet [MS-Connect 210 IP address] 9999 and type Enter.
- At the Telnet prompt, type Enter.
- To configure the IP address in the Telnet session, type 0 and Enter.
Note: "Netmask: Number of Bits for Host Port" will appear in the command prompt. This defines the number of cleared bits ("0" bits) in the LSB (least significant bit) of the 32-bit Netmask, starting at the right.
Example: 255.255.255.0 = 8 "0" bits
255.255.0.0. = 16 "0" bits
255.0.0.0 = 24 "0" bits
