Note) Password input method : you can input 'password' by using 4 button of frong panel. ( Inital(default) Password : press 'FUNCTION', 'SELECT', 'UP', 'ENTER' button 2 times by turns )

Setting of GMPC V)

1. Time & Date   :  Date and Time setting of GMPC V.

2. Model   :  Model, protocol and communication method of  GMPC V.

Model | Protocol  : select GMP(I-NET protocol of GMPC) or MODBUS protocol,

Model | Media   : select communication media of GMPC V.

Model | Main Port :  select Primary(P) or Secondary(S).

3. Serial   :  select Com1 or Com2 port of GMPC V.

4. Network(This)  : select LAN1, LAN2 Ethernet port.

Network(This) | Ethernet Port  : select primary ethernet port of GMPC V.

Network(This) | IP_0  :  input IP Address of Primary Ethernet,

Network(This) | Port_0 No_0  :  input Port number of Primary Ethernet,

Network(This) | Netmask_0  :  input Subnet mask of Primary Ethernet,

Network(This) | Gateway_0  :  input Gateway IP Address of Primary Ethernet,

Network(This) | Host_IP0   :  input Host(PC, etc) IP Address of Primary Ethernet.

After setting GMPC V controller, save the setting by using 'ENTER' button.

Also, you have to reset(power off and power on) in order to apply the setting value. (don't reset, GMPC V use the old setting value)

Note) When you using the 'Ethernet' communication, you have to set Host(PC, etc) IP address at GMPC V controller.

Also if you don't use gateway at network, please set 'Gateway' IP address to '0.0.0.0'.

Note) You must input power for the first time of GIMAC-IV, etc, and input power GMPC V.

If you input power GMPC V the first and input GIMAC-IV, etc, GMPC V can't find connected equipment. So it may not be able to communicate with connected equipment.
