Controller Express Setup

Connection Types

Direct or Ethernet Polling

• Communication port: Select a COM port.

• Controller's loop baud rate: Select the baud rate. Default is 9600.

• Response time out ratio:

• Polling frequency:

IP Link, KT-400, KT-1 or KTES

• MAC Address: Enter the device MAC address. The first 6 characters in the MAC address (00‐50‐F9 in the example above) cannot be modified.

Note...

The MAC address can be found on the device board. It is a 12‐Digit hexadecimal code, with each two digits separated by a hyphen (that is: xx‐xx‐xx‐xx‐xx).

• Controller's loop baud rate: Select the baud rate. Default is 9600.

• Protocol: Select between TCP and UDP.

Note...

TCP if the site communicates with the gateway through a terminal server using TCP protocol. In this case, you have to configure the terminal server. To do this, follow the manufacturer’s instructions or refer to the Terminal server documentation. UDP (User Datagram Protocol), uses the IP protocol to send datagrams from one Internet application to another. It is called “connectionless” because the sender and the receiver are not required to connect before the transmission of data. Check this option if the site you are configuring uses this protocol.

• Static/DHCP: Use DHCP to obtain IP address automatically. Otherwise, enter the following parameters:

○ IP Address: The static IP address should be provided by the System Administrator.

○ Subnet Mask: This address should be provided by the System Administrator.

○ Gateway (Router): This address should be provided by the System Administrator.

○ DNS Server: This address should be provided by the System Administrator.

Advanced

• Encryption Key: Enter a 16‐Digit hexadecimal code to secure your connection.

• Enable KT-Finder diagnostic for IP Device: Check this box if you want to use the KT‐Finder as a configuration and troubleshooting tool.

• Override Gateway IP Address: Select the checkbox and enter the following parameters:

○ Domain Name: Enter the computer or the workgroup from which the EntraPass Server is a member. Once you have entered the domain name, click on the Test DNS button. This should display the corresponding IP address.

○ IP Address: Enter an IP address.
