STG IP Address 

The STG IP Address field displays the currently assigned IP address of the STG and is used to assign a 
static IP address to the STG 

Subnet Mask 

The Subnet Mask field displays the currently assigned subnet mask assigned to the STG.  The default 
value is 255.255.255.0.  If the Responder system is on a different network segment than the STG or if 
the Ethernet paging system is on a different network segment, e.g. STG is on 192.168.10.214 and 
Responder is on 192.168.18.214, then the Subnet Mask value would need to be adjusted to 255.255.0.0. 

Gateway IP 

The Gateway IP field displays the IP address of a LAN gateway that the STG can use to connect to devices 
outside of the current STG network segment.  This setting only becomes important if connecting the STG 
to an Ethernet TAP output IP address that is outside of the current STG network segment.   

Time Server 

The Time Server field displays the IP address of a custom time server, if the installation requires one.  
The default value is blank, as the STG, by default, tries to use the internet to connect to nist.time.gov.  If 
the Time Server field is not blank, the STG will try to connect to the custom time server value. 

Ethernet Paging System IP Address 

The Ethernet Paging System IP Address field displays the currently assigned IP address for any Ethernet 
paging system that you want the STG to communicate to.  If you do not want the STG to try to 
communicate to an Ethernet paging system, leave the Ethernet Paging System IP address field blank. 

Ethernet Paging System IP Port 

The Ethernet Paging System IP Port field displays the Ethernet IP Port value that the STG should use 
when communicating with the Ethernet paging system. 

Baud Rate 

The Baud Rate field displays the serial port baud rate value that the STG should use when 
communicating with all connected Serial Port Paging Systems.  

Data Bits 

The Data Bits field displays the data bits value that the STG should use when communicating with all 
connected Serial Port Paging Systems. 

Parity 

The Parity field displays the serial port parity value that the STG should use when communicating with 
all connected Serial Port Paging Systems. 

Flow Control 

The Flow Control setting displays the flow control method that the STG should use when communicating 
with all connected Serial Port Paging Systems.  Typically flow control is only used when a paging system 
input queue is full and the paging system needs to signal a pause in message flow and then to signal a 
return to normal message flow.  If TAP 512 response code of 512 is used for flow control, the STG waits 
5 seconds before retrying the same message (see TAP output processing flow chart below)
