6.1 TCP/IP Connections
Programming and development can be done with the RCM3200 RabbitCore modules
without connecting the Ethernet port to a network. However, if you will be running the
sample programs that use the Ethernet capability or will be doing Ethernet-enabled devel-
opment, you should connect the RCM3200 module’s Ethernet port at this time.
Before proceeding you will need to have the following items.
• If you don’t have Ethernet access, you will need at least a 10Base-T Ethernet card
• Two RJ-45 straight through Ethernet cables and a hub, or an RJ-45 crossover Ethernet
The Ethernet cables and a 10Base-T Ethernet hub are available from Rabbit in a TCP/IP
tool kit. More information is available at www.rabbit.com.

There are four options for connecting the RCM3200 module to a network for develop-
ment and runtime purposes. The first two options permit total freedom of action in
selecting network addresses and use of the “network,” as no action can interfere with
other users. We recommend one of these options for initial development.
No LAN —
RCM3200’s Ethernet port directly to the PC’s network interface card using an RJ-45
crossover cable. A crossover cable is a special cable that flips some connections
between the two connectors and permits direct connection of two client systems. A
standard RJ-45 network cable will not work for this purpose.
Micro-LAN —
ernet 10Base-T hub and connect both the PC’s network interface card and the
RCM3200’s Ethernet port to it, using standard network cables.
NOTE: Although 10Base-T is the minim
recommended to allow you to work with the full speed capabilities of the RCM3200.
