Msc.cfg

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The MscDll is configured via the configuration file Msc.cfg. This is a text file, which can be opened using a standard editor. The typical content of the Msc.cfg is:

[System]
FTDI=OFF
XPort=ON

[XPort]
Address1=192.168.3.99:10002
EnumRetry=2
EnumTimeout=400
SendBufSize=1500
RcvBufSize=65536

 

The parameters are:

Parameter

Description

FTDI

Only for compatibility with older systems. This parameter must have the value OFF.

XPORT

This parameter must have the value ON (enables the IP based communication).

Adress1

IP address of the Irinos-System followed by the port number. The port number is always 10002.

Using the port number 10002 requires a UDP send buffer size of 1500 bytes and a receive buffer size of 65536 bytes (see parameters SndBufSize and RcvBufSize).

[For compatibility with other systems, the port number 10001 is also supported. In this case the UDP packet size is limited to 800 bytes.]

EnumRetry

Number of retries for searching the Irinos-System at connection startup.

EnumTimeout

Timeout for searching the Irinos-System at connection startup.

SendBufSize

Size of the UDP send buffer. Should always be 1500 bytes.

RcvBufSize

Size of the UDP receive buffer. Should always be 65536 bytes.

 

If the IP settings of the Irinos-System remain unchanged after delivery, the Msc.cfg file above can be used directly. Otherwise the IP address must be adopted to the actual IP address of the Irinos-System (Parameter "Address1").

The configuration file Msc.cfg can be created automatically by the Irinos-Tool. Further instructions can be found in the documentation of the Irinos-Tool.
