Setting the address via DHCP server
With the BX9000, the assignment of the IP address via a DHCP server is activated via the navigation switch of the Bus Terminal Controller (see chapter BX menu, or First steps).
With the BC9xx0, the assignment of the IP address via a DHCP server is activated via the dip switch of the Bus Terminal Controller (see chapter DIP switch).
If DHCP is active, the Bus Terminal Controller is automatically assigned an IP number by the DHCP server. The DHCP server must know the MAC ID of the Bus Terminal Controller for this. The IP address should be set statically.
The DNS name is formed from the type and the last 3 byte of the MAC ID. The MAC ID is given on the production label of the Bus Terminal Controller.
Example for BX9000
- MAC ID: 00-01-05-01-02-03
- DNS name: BX_010203
Example for BC9050
- MAC ID: 00-01-05-03-02-01
- DNS name: BC_030201
