Pressing the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION button starts up the 

system configuration. For more information, see “System 

Pressing the ADVANCED SETUP button starts the Advanced 

Setup.

Pressing the ADVANCED SETUP button on the Setup page 

displays more options that can be set by the user (Fig. 104).

Ethernet Settings is used to enable Ethernet communications 

for remote diagnostics, file transfers, and remote support, and 

is not typically enabled (Fig. 105). This feature should remain 

disabled unless directed to do so for remote troubleshooting. 

Once the feature is enabled, the S7999B must be reset to start 

it at power-up. The Ethernet interface can also be used to 

transfer profile curve files to/from the S7999B over a local 

intranet or the Internet.

A Honeywell software server connectivity check can be 

performed by selecting the Check button. This button is only 

enabled when the Ethernet interface is enabled and active. 

The connectivity check tries for 15 seconds to connect to the 

Honeywell software server. Successful connection displays a 

“CONNECTED” message on the screen. An unsuccessful 

attempt displays “NOT CONNECTED.”

The MAC (Media Access Control) address is a hardware 

address that uniquely identifies the S7999B on the network. 

This information is likely only of interest to the network 

administrator.

The IP (Internet Protocol) address is the address that the 

S7999B has been assigned by the DHCP server in the local 

network to use for others to access the S7999B. This address 

is necessary for the remote user to identify the S7999B in an 

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) application for transferring trend 

analysis information. Like the MAC address, it is displayed for 

informational purposes for the network administrator.

If the IP address has a private network designation (192.x.x.x), 

remote access from outside the local network may not be 

possible. Contact the network administrator for assistance in 

this case. If the IP address is 255.255.255.255, then no IP 

assignment has been made, and there is no connection to the 

network. This possibility could be due to no physical 

connection to an Ethernet network, or there is no DHCP server 

present on the Ethernet network. Check with the network 

administrator for assistance.

The Gateway IP address is displayed for informational 

purposes for the network administrator. The gateway node 

provides remote access for devices located off of the local 

network to the S7999B.

The Enable Network checkbox specifies that the Ethernet 

interface is on or not when the S7999B is powered up. The 

selection must be saved to permanent storage (flash) with the 

Save button for it take effect at boot time. This checkbox 

should normally be disabled, and enabled when Ethernet 

access to the S7999B is necessary. This interface must also 

be enabled for the Software Server Connectivity check to 

function properly (the Check button). If the Ethernet interface is 

disabled, the check procedure fails.
