When communication based on the FTP file transfer function starts, an FTP server

presence check based on PING is:
0:

Made.

Not made.

NOTE

Usually, set this parameter to 0 (to make a check).

If this parameter is set to 1 (not to make an FTP server presence
check based on PING), several tens of seconds may be required
until an error is recognized when no FTP server is present on the
network.

Mainly for security, a personal computer may be set to ignore the
PING command. When communicating with such a personal
computer, set this parameter to 1 (not to make an FTP server
presence check based on PING).

Setting Up the DNS/DHCP Function

The DNS/DHCP function is set up by using the COMMON screen (DETAIL) and parameters.

17.2.3.1

Setting up DNS

This subsection describes the procedure for setting up a DNS.

Procedure

Enable the DNS client function, with reference to "Related Parameters," which will be seen later.

Set up the DNS server of the host computer.

Connect the host computer on which the DNS server is working (hereafter referred to as a DNS

server), reboot the CNC, then press function key

Press soft keys [EMBED] and [COMMON] in that order. The COMMON screen (DETAIL) appears.

Enter the IP address of the DNS server in the corresponding DNS IP address field.

COMMON screen (DETAIL)

After pressing soft key [COMMON], press either page key

to call a desired COMMON

screen (DETAIL) (Fig. 17.2.3.1(a)). Specify a DNS IP address.

17.2.3.2

Setting up DHCP

This subsection describes the procedure for setting up a DHCP.

Procedure

Enable the DHCP client function, with reference to "Related Parameters," which will be seen later.

Also this function can be enabled by setting “1” to the DHCP CLIENT in the COMMON screen
(BASIC).

Set up the DHCP server of the host computer.

Connect the host computer on which the DHCP server is working (hereafter referred to as a DHCP

server), reboot the CNC, then press function key

Press soft keys [EMBED] and [COMMON] in that order. The COMMON screen appears.

If the DHCP client function of the CNC has been enabled and if the DHCP server is connected
successfully, the DHCP server automatically specifies the following items.
-

IP ADDRESS

SUBNET MASK

ROUTER IP ADDRESS

DNS IP ADDRESS

DOMAIN

If the DHCP server cannot be connected, "DHCP ERROR" is displayed in each field.

If the DNS client function has also been enabled and if the DHCP server and the DNS server work
together (if the DNS server supports dynamic DNS), enter a host name.

COMMON screen (BASIC and DETAIL)

After pressing soft key [COMMON], press either page key

to call desired Ethernet common

setting screens (BASIC and DETAIL).
If the DHCP server is connected successfully and if the setting data can be obtained, the screens are
displayed as shown Fig. 17.2.3.2(a).

embedded Ethernet function is restarted.

17.2.4

Setting of the CNC Screen Display Function

CNC Screen Display function is a software that allows performing display and operation similar to a
CNC on the Windows PC. Refer to "CNC Screen Display Function OPERATOR’S MANUAL
(B-63164EN)" for the method of use.

NOTE

1 The screen update interval of CNC Screen Display function is slower than that of

a CNC-dedicated display unit. Therefore, use this function as an auxiliary display
unit.

2 When high-load machining such as high-speed and high-precision machining is

performed or the functions that require the CPU power are specified, the screen
update interval might be slower. Even if a higher-performance personal
computer is used, the screen update interval is not improved.
Therefore, the CNC Screen Display function on Embedded Ethernet might not
show the full performance according to the system configuration of the machine.

3 On Embedded Ethernet, when other network functions (FOCAS2/Ethernet

function etc.) are used simultaneously with CNC Screen Display function, it
affects the screen update interval. Therefore, do not use other network functions
at the same time on Embedded Ethernet when using CNC Screen Display
function.
