DeviceMaster is not detected in the Driver in the MAC communication mode

PublishTime：2022-10-28

◆The DeviceMaster Driver can communicate to the DeviceMaster hardware using one of two communications protocols. MAC mode (layer 2) and TCP/IP(layer 3). This document will attempt to describe and provide assistance when the Driver is unable to use the MAC mode of communications. If the Driver is unable to detect the DeviceMaster in the configuration from the drop down list for selecting the appropriate unit, then MAC mode will not work. Please note that only the model as shown in the name will be detectable.For example if you have a DeviceMaster RTS and installed the driver for a DeviceMaster PRO, the Driver will be unable to list the correct MAC addresses for the RTS model. This is also true when the wrong number of serial ports have been defined. There are several different instances in which the MAC mode of operation will not be possible and most will be described and in these cases using the IP mode will be required. There is no real disadvantage of using IP mode communications as opposed to the MAC mode communications in the Driver.In most cases this is only a matter of ease of total configuration.
◆We will assume that the DeviceMaster is attached to the network and powered on and that all LED’s are indicating proper operation. The yellow Status/Power LED is on solid and blinks at 10 second intervals and the Ethernet LED’s are showing Link status.
