Adding FieldPoint Devices on Another Subnet

If a FieldPoint Ethernet network module is on a different subnet from the host PC and you know the IP address, you can use the Add Targets and Devices dialog box to add the bank to your project. Complete the following steps:

1. Right-click the project name in the project tree and select New»Targets and Devices.
2. In the Add Targets and Devices dialog box that appears, select Existing device on remote subnet.
3. Expand FieldPoint Controller and select the device from the list.
4. Enter the IP address and click OK.
5. An icon for the bank appears in the Project Explorer project tree. The default name of the bank is "FP Target" for RT controllers and "FP Res" for non-RT network modules. You can give the bank a descriptive name.
6. Right-click the bank icon and select Properties to display the General properties page. Verify the IP address and the name of the bank.
