7. Enter ping followed by the IP address of the computer or controller on the
Ethernet network that you want to test.
NOTE: The IP address of the Ethernet interface card is the same as the
IP address of the computer or controller to which it is attached.
For example, if the IP address of another controller in the Ethernet network is
’10.1.100.177’ then you would enter ‘ping 10.1.100.177’ and would look like this:
TINI/> ping 10.1.100.177
If ping is successful, you see a message in the Hyperterminal window similar to:
Got a reply from node 10.1.100.177/10.1.100.177
Sent 1 request(s), got 1 reply(s)
TINI/>
If ping is unsuccessful, you see a message returned in the Hyperterminal window similar
to:
Node 10.1.100.177/10.1.100.177 was unreachable
Sent 1 request(s), got 0 reply(s)
TINI/>
8. Repeat Step 7 for every IP address that you want to test.
9. When you are finished testing the network, logout of Hyperterminal.
a. At the TINI prompt, enter ‘logout.’
The Hyperterminal session ends and returns you to the Windows desktop.
When the ping command is successfully applied to the IP addresses you are testing, you know the
physical network connections are working correctly. If you still have a network problem, it is likely to
be the result of a software malfunction.
NOTE: As well as the ping command described in Procedure 5-4, there
are a number of other commands available, such as ipconfig
and tcm. These commands can also be used to diagnose
problems with an Ethernet network. Consult a GSE tech-motive
tool engineer for details.
