Required connections
GF_Project requires a standard Ethernet link for connection to the network device.The network target must be configured with a fixed IP and must be included in the same subnetwork configured in the development PC.See the specific chapter for the procedure to configure the IP on the target device.The connection between the development PC and the network device can be either of two types.“Point to point” connection: in this case an Ethernet “cross” network cable with RJ45 connector is used. This type of connection allows only one connection between the development PC and the network target.
