920394 Ethernet Interface Card
Installation and Configuration
This document covers the installation, initialization, and operation
of the 920394 Ethernet Interface Card.
Once installed, Ethernet becomes the only possible
communications method with the MCS-3800, MCS-3400 or MCS-
3000. It is not possible at this time to have a 920394 Ethernet
Interface Card and an RS-232 Interface Card, RS-422/9-Pin
Interface Card, or USB Interface Card installed at the same time.
In addition, the firmware installed in the MCS-3800, MCS-3400 or
MCS-3000 is specific for Ethernet operation.
The 920394 Ethernet Interface Card performs the function of TCP
server with fixed IP address. At this time, UDP, client, and DHCP
operations are not supported.
I. Installation
1. Updated firmware (v2.00 or later) must be installed into the
MCS-3800, MCS-3400 or MCS-3000 in order to operate
with the 920394 Ethernet Interface Card. You may check
the firmware currently in the MCS-3800, MCS-3400 or
MCS-3000 by powering it up. The message:
JLCooper Electronics MCS-3x00
Version 2.xx
should appear, depending on model and firmware revision.
a. If this message appears, proceed to step 2
b. If the Ethernet message does not appear, you must
install updated firmware
c. Please contact the factory for ordering or obtaining
service for firmware installation.
