5.1 Network Settings
When the device communicates with the PC over
Ethernet
, you need to check the
following settings:
IP Address
: The IP address is 192.168.1.201 by default and can be changed as
required; the IP address of the device and that of the PC cannot be duplicated.
Subnet Mask
: The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 by default and can be changed as
required.
Gateway
: The gateway is 0.0.0.0 by default. If the device and the PC are not located in
the same network segment, you need to set the gateway.
When the device communicates with the PC over
serial ports (RS232/RS485)
, you
need to check the following settings:
RS232:
This parameter is used to enable or disable the RS232 communication. If the
RS232 communication cables are used, set this parameter to “ON”.
RS485:
This parameter is used to enable or disable the RS485 communication. If the
RS485 communication cables are used, set this parameter to “ON”.
Baud Rate
: This parameter is used to set the baud rate for the communication between
the device and the PC. It includes five options: 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and
115200. The higher baud rate is recommended for the RS232 communication to
achieve high speed communication, while the lower baud rate is recommended for the
RS485 communication to achieve stable low-speed communication.
Device ID
: This parameter is used to set the ID of device from 1 to 254. If the
RS232/RS485 communication is adopted, you need to enter the device ID on the
software communication interface.
Comm. Key
: To enhance the security of attendance data, you can set a password for
the connection between the device and PC. Once the password is set, you can connect
the PC with the device to access the attendance data only after entering the correct
password. The default password is 0 (that is, no password). Once a password is set,
