3. Once on the data entry screen, make any necessary changes to the IP Address, Subnet, Gateway, Sys Port #, ICS
Port #, and NTP Address. You can also turn Dynamic Host Communications Protocol (DHCP) On or O on this
screen. When DHCP is turned On, it allows the network server to set IP addresses for this unit.
NOTE: Sys Port # sets the port number used to send the EOR data if requested on Ethernet. ICS Port # sets the port
number used to send and receive data to and from the ICS software. In most cases this should be left to the default
value of 50001.
NOTE: Ethernet changes do not go into eect until the controller is rebooted.
3.6.2 Additional Communication Entries
Remember that the Job Number and CAN Address on the System Setup screen must be correctly set to allow a PC to
communicate with the Insight controller. See Section 3.3.3 Job Number and CAN Address for details on how to make
changes to those parameters.
