System modules are currently designed to use RARP
protocol
and BOOTP protocol for Dynamic IP address assignment.
When placed in Dynamic addressing mode, (through the TCP/IP
protocol ‘w1301’ command), the modules will first try to resolve
their addresses using RARP protocol. If no RARP server can be
found, the mo
dules will then use the BOOTP protocol. The modules
will alternate between these two protocols until a response is
received and an IP address is assigned. If you are not sure about
these protocols, or if your modules should be using them, please
contact your network administrator.
®
95/98/2000/XP/NT BOOTP/RARP server is
available free of charge from Measurement Specialties. For
additional information on the BOOTP Lite application, contact the
Sales or Applications Support Department at MEAS. The
application can also be downloaded from our website,

6.1.2.2 Host IP Address Assignment for Windows® 95/98/NT
In order to communicate with the Ethernet 9016, 9021, or 9022, the host computer must also be
configured with an appropriate IP address. For Windows® 95/98 and Windows® NT, a typical
configuration is described below. Note that this configuration assumes that a host PC Ethernet
adapter is installed and not in use for any other TCP/IP application. If your Ethernet adapter is
used for other TCP/IP communications, contact your MIS or network administrator to determine
proper host IP address and subnet mask configurations before proceeding.
Activate the Windows
®
control bar (left click the START icon). Select the SETTINGS line
followed by the CONTROL PANEL folder. In the CONTROL PANEL folder, select the
NETWORK icon. Once in the NETWORK setup, select the tab labeled CONFIGURATION.
Scroll through the list of installed configuration protocols. Select the one labeled
‘TCP/IP->xxxx’ where xxxx will typically identify your Ethernet adapter card. There may be
other TCP/IP protocols listed for other items such as dial up adapters, these are not used for the
NetScanner™ System Ethernet configuration. If the TCP/IP protocol is not listed in the
configuration menu, left click the ADD button. Continue by selecting to add a PROTOCOL.
Select MICROSOFT from the Manufacturers list. Then select TCP/IP from the networks
protocol list.
