Communications and Source Setup

This screen allows the user to view and modify the method of communications between the instrument and external devices.

 

IP Address

This section identifies the IP Address of the instrument. When connected to a network, the MGA 6010 screen will obtain its own IP Address. It does this during the power-up procedure, so if communication via Ethernet is preferred, plug the cable into the instrument before turning it on. To use a specific IP address, it must be entered on the Windows CE screen. This can only be accessed when the Gas Analyzer software has been shut down.

 

Manually Setting the IP Address

  1. Log in to the MGA 6010 touch screen using the supervisor access code (by default, this code is ‘2’).
  2. Access the Instrument Setup → General Setup menu.
  3. Select “Shut Down Software” followed by “Yes”.
  4. The program will shut down and a Windows CE screen will appear.
  5. Click the Start menu in the lower left corner.
  6. Select ‘Settings” and then “Network and Dial-up Connections”.
  7. Select “CS89001”
  8. Select the option for “Specify an IP Address”
  9. Enter the desired IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.
  10. Select “OK”
  11. Close open windows to return to the main Windows CE Screen.
  12. Double-click on the “SaveRegs” icon.
  13. Select “OK” from the Registry Save Complete notification.
  14. Turn the instrument off and wait for the screen to turn off.
  15. Turn the instrument back on.
  16. The instrument will automatically boot up as a gas analyzer with the IP address that has been manually entered.

 

Atmosphere/Temp Sources

RS485 communications can be set up to automatically enter and update data from the oxygen probe and, if desired, make modifications to the COF/PF in the atmosphere controller.

 

 

Port Usage

This is the communication method used to supply information to the instrument.  The possible values are:

Modbus Master

Modbus Host

 

Port Baud Rate

This is the speed of communications which can range between 1200 and 115200.
