3.9 Connecting the configuration PC
You can connect the configuration PC to C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC in several ways:
1) By using a Ethernet cross cable connected by one end to the configuration
PC and on the other end to one of two Ethernet ports of C6 HMI / C6 HMI
LC.
2) By connecting C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC to a Ethernet switch on which the config-
uration PC and C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC are both connected.
3) By connecting C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC and the configuration PC to the office
LAN.
Please note that C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC comes with DHCP service enabled. That means in
case number 3 above it is sufficient to connect the C6 HMI in LAN; the LAN DHCP
server automatically assigns an IP address to the C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC.
If no DHCP server is available, assign a static IP address to the C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC
which is compatible with the IP address of the configuration computer.
Example: If the PC has the IP address 172.17.17.20, the C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC must be
configured with the IP address 172.17.17.182. To configure the IP address on the ta-
ble:

Click on Start -> Settings -> "Network and Dial-up Connections

According to the Ethernet port you want to configure, select the port to con-
figure according to the following table:
LAN-Port of the C6 HMI / C6 HMI LC
LAN1
LAN2

For instance if you need to configure LAN1 double click on FEC1, Click on
"Specify an IP address" and write the IP address and default Gateway like in
the figure below
