...4 CONFIGURATION

4.4.5 Ethernet

The Ethernet module fitted to the instrument contains an embedded web server enabling the instrument's data and status to be
viewed remotely using an internet browser on a PC. The web server supports up to eight independant connections.
Notes.
• To connect the instrument to an Ethernet network, see Section 5.8.
• For an overview of Ethernet Communications and information on testing, FTP access and a operation of the instrument's
embedded web server – see APPENDIX 4.

Note. Changes to the IP address, subnet mask and default
gateway are implemented only after the instrument has been
restarted. Change the addressing parameters, exit and save
the configuration, wait until the 'Please Wait' message
disappears then power down and restart the instrument.
Set the IP address to be assigned to the instrument. The IP
address is used by the TCP/IP protocol to distinguish
between different devices. The address is a 32 bit value
expressed with four values (0 to 255), each separated by a
period (.).
The subnet mask is used to indicate which part of the IP
address is for the network ID and which is for the host ID. Set
as '1's each bit that is part of the network ID, e.g.
255.255.255.0 indicates first 24 bits are for the network ID.
Set the IP address for the gateway (router, switch etc.)
required to communicate with other networks. This setting
may not be required. The default setting is 0.0.0.0
The FTP user name and password are used during logon to
enable the FTP server. Access for up to 11 different users is
provided. These passwords can also be used to allow
access to some functionality provided by the web server.
Enter the name of user required for FTP login.
Enter the password required for FTP login.
Select whether this FTP user has full access (i.e. the ability to
read, write and delete files) or read-only access.
Note. If a user is given full access via FTP, that user is able to
delete both data and configuration files. This could result in
erroneous operation of the instrument.
Select the level of remote operation access granted to this
user:
None – the user is unable to log on to the
instrument remotely using FTP
Operator – the user can acknowledge alarms and
start/stop totalizers using FTP
Configuration – in addition to operator functions, the
user can load configurations and change
the instrument's internal clock using FTP
