7. Open the Master tab to begin configuring the communication parameters for the target Master.
Step 2: Choose a Master Connection Mode Setting
The Master tab of the System Connection page uses three (Master Connection) Mode settings (FIG. 31).
The (Master Connection) Mode options are as follows:
URL is the address that defines the route to a file on the Web or any other Internet facility. In this
system, the panel acts as a "Client" and the Master acts as a Server (in that Clients attach to it).
URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the most commonly used method.
LISTEN sets the Modero panel to "listen" for broadcasts from the Master (using the panel IP from
its URL list). In this system, the panel acts as a "Server" (in that Clients attach to it) and the Master
acts as a "Client".
AUTO is used to instruct the Modero to search for a Master that uses the same System Number
(assigned within the Master Connection section) and resides on the same Subnet as itself. In this
case, the Master has its UDP feature enabled. This UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a protocol
within the TCP/IP protocol suite that is used in place of TCP when a reliable delivery is not
required. This UDP enabling is done through a Telnet session on the Master.
Refer to the installation manual for the particular NetLinx Master for more detailed information.
Check with your System Administrator for a pre-reserved Static IP Address assigned
to the panel. This address must be obtained before Static assignment of the panel
continues.
