The 6000-420 Platinum Series Ethernet Module is a wired and wireless Ethernet option available
for any of the Platinum Series Products. It is easily integrated into the main controller assembly
through a PC-104 based option stacking system. Once installed, the configuration of the card is
handled through the user interface or remotely over Ethernet.

Introduction
2.0 Ethernet Basics
This Ethernet card provides two possible mediums for physical layer connection. The first is a
wired-LAN, using a 10/100 BaseT connection. This is best used for environments that are electri-
cally noisy, or the distance between the system and the access point would be too far for
wireless communication. The second method is wireless, using the industry standard 802.11b or
802.11g radio interfaces. Wireless makes integration much faster, removing complexity and
costs due to running cables. In the wireless medium, there are two choices on how to setup the
network. These two methods, Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc, are further explained below.
2.1 Wireless - Infrastructure
This method of wireless networking is fairly standard for laptops and other wireless-Ethernet
based devices. This system relies on a network server to act as the backbone for setting up
unique addresses for each device on the network and management of communication functions.
This type of networking makes sharing of data and devices easier than the next method.
2.2 Wireless - Ad-Hoc
This method of wireless networking allows a peer-to-peer connection to be made to transfer
data. No supporting network server is required, but the computer or device sending data to a
target system must know the IP address to make the virtual connection. If no network backbone
is present, or the user wishes to test the unit without need for IS / IT intervention, the Ad-Hoc
method works best. Any wireless laptop computer can be run in Ad-Hoc mode to directly com-
municate to a system.

3.0 Setup
Step 1 - Determine the Network Type
Goal:
Determine the best configuration for the network. If the system is to run in the wireless
mode, there are two choices for operation mode. See the prior section for which selection is
appropriate for the application. Select the appropriate network type.
Map:
From the offline screen, select the Settings button. On the Settings Menu, press the Options button.
From the Options Menu choices, press the Ethernet button. The first screen in the Ethernet Menu is
the choice of Mode. Select the correct mode from these choices:
Once this selection has been made, press “Next” for the next setup step.

• SerialCom ThismodedisablestheEthernetinterfacetoallowdirectserialcommunicationintothe
standardserialportoftheMCA
Step 2 - Set the IP Address
Goal:
Assign the system a unique IP (Internet Protocol) Address number. This is typically a static
number administered by the IT / IS group for the company. There are four numbers that
make up the address which range from 000 to 255.
Map:
From the Ethernet Mode screen, press “Next” to enter the IP Address menu screen. Enter the unique
static IP number supplied by the Network Administrator. Record this number on the last page of this
manual.
Once this selection has been made, press “Next” for the next setup step.
Step 3 - Set the Netmask
Goal:
Assign the net mask for the system. A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP
address that are assigned for the host part. There are four numbers that make up the
address which range from 000 to 255.
Map:
From the Ethernet IP Address screen, press “Next” to enter the Netmask menu screen. Enter the
mask number supplied by the Network Administrator. Record this number on the last page of this
manual.
Once this selection has been made, press “Next” for the next setup step.
Step 4 - Set the Gateway Address
Goal:
Assign the gateway address for the system. The gateway address, or router, allows
communication to other LAN segments. The gateway address should be the IP address of the
router connected to the same LAN segment as the unit. The gateway address must be within
the local network. There are four numbers that make up the address which range from 000 to
255.
Note:
No entry or a value of 000.000.000.000 is necessary for an Ad-Hoc network type, since no
Gateway exists.
Map:
From the Ethernet Netmask screen, press “Next” to enter the Gateway Address menu screen. Enter
the address number supplied by the Network Administrator. Record this number on the last page of
this manual.
Once this selection has been made, press “Next” for the next setup step.

Step 5 - Set the SSID (Wireless Only)
Goal:
Assign the SSID, which is the Service Set Identifier. The SSID is the name of the wireless local
area network (WLAN). This is represented by a 32 character name.
Note:
For an Infrastructure Network, this name must match the wireless access point SSID.
Note:
For an Ad-Hoc Network, all units on the network must have the same SSID to communicate.
The Ad-Hoc network channel is defaulted to channel 10. This can only be changed by the
Administrator software, if necessary.
Note:
The name entered must be left-justified, so additional blank spaces may be
required to shift the whole name to the left-most position. Also, there are two
independent lines that are concatenated to make the entire 32 character name.
Map:
From the Ethernet Gateway Address screen, press “Next” to enter the SSID menu screen. Enter the
name of the WLAN supplied by the Network Administrator.
Once this selection has been made, press “Next” to return to the first Network screen. Record this
setting on the last page of this manual. Press the “Home” button for the settings to take effect. This
will interrupt the communications for a minimum of 10 seconds. If the unit is set up for wireless, it can
take longer to acquire the host and establish itself on the network.
Step 6 - Set the Baud Rate
Goal:
Establish the baud rate communications speed between the system and the printer module.
Although the network card uses Ethernet for communications to the Host, the printer still
requires the correct baud rate to get data to and from the unit.
Map:
Enter the Baud Rate menu by starting in the Offline Screen. Press the “Settings” button followed by
the “System” button in the next screen. Press “Next” until the Baud Rate screen is visible. Set the
baud rate to the same value as the printer. Since the physical distance is very short between the MCA
and Printer, the communication rate should be maximized to reduce transmission time. Depending on
the printer utilized, this can be set as high as 115.2 k baud. Record this number on the last page of
this manual.

4.0 Example Setup
Most wired Ethernet connections are straight forward, but the wireless modes and settings can
be confusing. To help ease the setup of the wireless connections, the following examples illus-
trate the two possible configuration scenarios. The Ad-Hoc requires the most setup steps, with
the same final steps for Ad-Hoc, Infrastructure, and Wired, which are listed last.
4.1 Ad-Hoc Example
Begin by consulting with the Network Administrator to get these items ready before setup:
• A Static IP address for each system on the network
• The Netmask for these systems
• The SSID of the router or similar device that the systems will need to use for the wireless link
Use these values to enter in the Setup steps above.
If the Administrator has no preference or if there are any other wireless devices operating in the
area, the following values can be utilized:
IP Address = 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4, etc. (Reserve 192.168.0.1 for the laptop)
Netmask = 255.255.255.0
SSID = DIAGRAPH
To configure a Windows-based computer to communicate to the device, follow the steps below:
