9G426-02 Module Specific Information
Screen Lockout Time
Contains the maximum number of minutes that the Local Management
application will display a module’s screen while pending input or action from a
user. For example, if you enter 5 in this field, users will have up to five minutes to
respond in some fashion to each of the specified module’s Local Management
screens. In our example, after five minutes of “idleness” (no input or action), the
Local Management application terminates the session on the selected module and
the Slot Selection Screen reappears. To enter a new lockout time, highlight the
field and enter a number. The
default
lockout time is 15 minutes. The
range
is 1 -
30 minutes.
Host IP Address
Contains the Internet Protocol address currently assigned to the selected module.
Set this field according to your network requirements. Highlight the Host IP
Address field and enter the desired IP address using dotted decimal notation (4
decimal values between 1 and 255 separated by periods) as follows:
255.255.255.255
(255 is the maximum number that you can enter in any of the four segments.
Default = 0.0.0.0 .) This address can be used by any of the system interfaces on the
module.
Subnet Mask
Contains the subnet mask for the selected module. A subnet mask “masks out”
the network bits of the IP address by setting the bits in the mask to 1 when the
network treats the corresponding bits in the IP address as part of the network or
subnetwork address, or to 0 if the corresponding bit identifies the host. The
default subnet mask uses the first two portions of the IP address to identify the
network id, leaving the rest of the IP address to identify specific nodes. To enter a
new subnet mask, highlight the field and enter a new value using dotted decimal
notation (4 decimal values between 1 and 255 separated by periods) as follows:
255.255.255.255
(The Subnet Mask field defaults to the natural mask value, based on the IP
Address that you entered for the device.)
