Connecting to an RMC 3.3
Using RMCWin 3-17
Comparison with Other Communication Drivers
This driver is up to 100 times faster than the other drivers, unless routing over a WAN such as the
Internet. However, it cannot be used to download firmware. Following are differences when
compared to each of the other drivers:
Serial: The serial port method requires neither an RMC-ENET module nor an Ethernet adapter in
the PC, but does not have as high performance, has no isolation, has shorter cable distances,
and can only be used point-to-point.
TCP/IP-to-RS232 Bridge: The bridge method does not require an RMC-ENET module, but is
much slower and requires an additional bridge device.

3.3.7.4 Communication Driver: TCP/IP Direct to RMC-ENET
Configuration
Note: This communication driver requires RMC ENET firmware dated 20001108 or later.
Communicating over TCP/IP requires configuring both the PC's and RMC's IP parameters, and
then selecting the RMC IP address in RMCWin.
For a discussion of choosing TCP/IP addresses, see Understanding IP Addressing.
For instructions on setting up the RMC's TCP/IP settings, see RMC Ethernet IP Address Setup.
For information on setting up the TCP/IP settings for your PC, refer to your Windows manuals
and online help. Typically, you will not change your PC's TCP/IP settings if it is already installed.
Instead, follow the instructions for configuring the RMC's TCP/IP settings, which will show the
PC's settings for your convenience.
The quickest way to select the target RMC you want to communicate with is as follows:
1. Start RMCWin.
2. On the main window's status bar, right-click the Communication pane (e.g. "COM1: Offline").
A shortcut menu will appear. At the bottom of this shortcut menu will be listed all of the most
recently accessed RMC IP addresses, plus all RMCs on the local network.
Note: If your computer has a firewall, it may prevent RMCWin from finding RMC100s on your
Ethernet network. See the Setting the Firewall to Allow RMC100 Ethernet Browsing topic for
details.
