Re: [foxboro] AW70 to WP70 via Ethernet

The host parameter on the WP indicates the logical host for this WP. Usually 
this would be the AW in the system. Although I should mention this is UNIX 
experience.
But I think NT follows the same logic path.
With UNIX the logical AP is where the ICC, historian and other applics are 
supposed to reside for that particular WP. This does not really do that much 
good with NT.
The WP logical must be defined for the DM to get a name where the data should 
go to. But I think that is configured OK .
Did you get any further yet?
