It is recommended that systems running with the BSA Processor run peer-topeer
with the application PC. This is primarily because of performance and
service considerations. When the processor and computer are connected
peer-to-peer the two parts have to have nearly the same IP address and
subnet masks. Valid combinations for the application PC are:
Version 1.00 Version 2.00
10.10.x.x
255.255.0.0
10.x.x.x
255.0.0.0
Caution The BSA comes with a red peer-to-peer Ethernet cable (crossed wire cable).
Do not use the peer-to-peer Ethernet cable to connect to a network, since the
pin connections are different for point-to-point and normal network
connection.
Configuration Service
Another way to change the IP address, subnet mask and processor name is to
use the advanced Configuration Service installed in the processor. This
service can be reached using an existing network connection or by a serial
null-modem cable connection.
When using a network connection, communication can be established using
the Telnet utility. In the case of a serial connection the program
HyperTerminal can be used. Both programs are found in standard
installations of Windows. A quick way to use the Configuration Service is to
launch communication from the Connection page in the Device
Configuration.
