2-5 Making the PC settings (client)
The settings for the device (PC) are also essential for correctly exchanging information
with the controller. A basic method for setting a computer using Windows 98 is de-
scribed below. If using a device having a different OS (operating system) or TCP/IP
protocols, refer to the user’s manual for that device for information on how to make the
settings.

2-5-1 Setting the TCP/IP protocol
A brief description of setting the TCP/IP protocol for Windows 98 is given below. See
the First Step Guide in Windows 98 for more detailed information. Some changes in the
settings may be needed to match the user’s network.
1) Click the “Start” button, point to “Set-
tings”, and then select “Control Panel”.
2) Double-click the “Network” icon within
the “Control Panel”.
3) Under the “Configuration” tab screen,
look inside “The following network com-
ponents are installed” list, and check that
“Client for Microsoft Networks” and
“TCP/IP” are present. (When there is
more than one network adapter, the “TCP/
IP Currently used network adapter” is
displayed.) If missing from this list, then
add “Client for Microsoft Networks” and
“TCP/IP” by using step 7 below.
4) Double-click “TCP/IP” to display the
Properties.
5) On the “IP Address” tab screen, set the IP
address and the subnet mask. Enter the
PC subnet mask and IP address here.
