Receiver Status - Identity
|
|
This page shows information about the identity of the NetRS receiver.
-
System Name - The system name provides a way to distinguish between
receivers other than by their IP address.
Use Set System Name to change the name.
The assignment of system names, especially in large networks, should be
planned to facilitate network administration.
-
Serial Number - The serial number of the NetRS receiver. This number is
unique across all Trimble receivers, and is the most reliable way of
identifying a specific receiver. The serial number cannot be changed.
-
Ethernet IP - The IP address assigned to the receiver. This address is
used to connect to the receiver using the ethernet port. This address
may be static, or it may change over time, depending on how the receiver
Internet options are specified.
-
DNS name - The DNS name is an alternate way of addressing the receiver
on the network. The name is used as an alias for the Ethernet IP. It
is a combination of the System Name and Domain, which are specified using
the Internet options.
-
Firmware Version - The Firmware Version is used to identify the current
software running on the NetRS receiver. This information is used to
determine if more recent firmware is available from Trimble, and also
to identify the Firmware if it is ever necessary to contact Trimble support.
Receiver firmware is loaded using the Firware Upload
page.
