tcp/ip port setting

I am having trouble connecting to my DEA controller on my Global.
Using rs-232 connection I was able to use hyper terminal to show the connections.

READY

TCP/IP Information

Ctrl Internet Address : 80.128.0.2
Port Number : 0
Host Internet Address : 80.128.0.1
Connection State : listening
Bad IP Checksums : 0
Bad TCP Checksums : 0
Packets Retransmitted : 0

Is there a way to change the port setting remotely? It should be set to 2001, but as you see it is 0 now. The motherboard was changed recently in the controller.

  • First, I saw a user post that your Subnet needed to be 255.255.0.0 which is incorrect.

    You might be able to run Settings editor and look in the Leitz section to see what the TCPIPPORT = It should = 2001, if it reads 0 then your controller has somehow lost it's config. If it reads something different. This also may not work because all of your settings reside on the controller. And for gods sakes DO NOT CHANGE ANY SETTINGS IN SETTINGS EDITOR.

    If your controller has lost its setting then you're going to have to call out Hexagon to help you. You said recently that you're mainboard in the Leitz controller was replaced, if you're asking me it looks like the tech set it up wrong. But my global lost it's home position once and I had to have Hexagon come out and install a new firmware on it.
