Ultrascan Network Information
The Ultrascan PC90 is designed to connect directly to a dedicated PC or to an Ethernet network.
When connected to an Ethernet network, only one PC at a time can control the Ultrascan beamformer.
This is to minimize possible conflicting commands coming from multiple computers.
For proper operation, it is important that the Ultrascan’s IP address uses the same subnet which has
been configured on the dedicated PC’s network card, or which the network is using. The subnet is the
first three blocks of digits in the IP address. For example the subnet in the IP address 192.168.1.1 is
192.168.1, and the subnet in the IP address of 192.168.0.1 is 192.168.0.
Also, the Ultrascan beamformer must have a unique device number (the last digit). For example, if
you configure your PC’s network card for IP address 192.168.1.3, the Ultrascan beamformer must
have the same subnet numbers (the first three sets of numbers –192.168.1), but it can not have the
same device number (the last group of numbers—in this case “3”).
The default IP address that is programmed into the Ultrascan beamformer prior to shipment is
192.168.1.20. In most situations when connecting to a dedicated PC, this will not have to be changed.
However, if you are connecting the Ultrascan to an existing Ethernet network you may have to recon-
figure the beamformer’s IP address so that it uses the same subnet—and has a unique device number.
To find out the current IP settings of your PC, open a DOS window and type the command ipconfig
Scroll to the top of the window to see the current setting on your PC. See the example below:
