ICSLAN port
The ICSLAN port gets its IP addresses in one or more of the following ways:
IPv4 - Static assignment of the subnetwork address by the user
IPv6 - Link local address
Using the ICSLAN Network
The default IP address for the ICSLAN network is 198.18.0.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
It is important that the ICSLAN and LAN subnets do not overlap. If the LAN port is configured such that its address space over-
laps with the ICSLAN network, the ICSLAN network will be DISABLED.
NOTE:
Typically, the NCITE-813AC communicates with an A/V switcher via ICSLAN. Since the A/V switcher has a static IP address
on the ICSLAN network, and you cannot change the IP address on the switcher, you cannot change the 198.18 subnet information
on the NCITE-813AC platform of processors. You can only change the Host name and DHCP server settings.
DHCP Server
The ICSLAN port has a built-in DHCP server. This DHCP server is enabled by default and will serve IP addresses to any connected
devices set to DHCP mode.
The DHCP server can be disabled from telnet with the command:
SET ICSLAN
The DHCP address range is fixed. The server will provide addresses in the range x.x.0.2 through x.x.63.255.
Devices using static IP addresses on the ICSLAN network should be set within the reserved static IP address range of x.x.64.1 to
x.x.255.255.
Opening LAN and ICSLAN Sockets from Code
When opening sockets from NetLinx or Java code there is no mechanism to indicate which network to use. The controller will open
the socket on whichever network has an IP subnet that matches the address provided in the command to open the socket. There
is no indication which network was used, only whether the socket was created successfully.
USB Port
The NCITE-813AC features one Type-A USB port you can use to connect a mass storage device for loading .jar files and IR data
files (.irl), reading or writing configuration files and log files, or updating the firmware on the unit.
NOTE:
This USB port only supports a FAT32 file system.
This USB port (FIG. 51) uses standard USB cabling to connect to any mass storage or peripheral devices.
Wiring and Device Connections
ICSLAN Port
The NCITE-813AC has two types of Ethernet ports: LAN and ICSLAN. The LAN port is used to connect the master to an external
network, and the ICSLAN port is used to connect to other AMX equipment or third-party A/V equipment. The ICSLAN port pro-
vides Ethernet Communication to connected AMX Ethernet Equipment in a way that is isolated from the primary LAN connection.
The ICSLAN port is a 10/100 Port RJ-45 connector and Auto MDI/MDI-X enabled. The NCITE-813AC features one port. The port
supports IPv4 and IPv6 networks, as well as HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, and FTP.
