Ping from Sensor

For radio module version 2.27 and earlier (Utility > Info tab): When the Ping from Sensor button is clicked, HMT140 will use either the IP address in the IP Address field or the current address in the Destination IP field in the Setup tab and ping that specified address. Once the ping operation is complete, HMT140 Utility will either indicate failed or success and specify the IP address in the Result field.

Ping from This PC

When the Ping from This PC button is clicked, HMT140 will use either the IP address in the IP Address field or the current address in the Destination IP field in the Setup tab and ping that specified address from the local PC. Once the ping operation is complete, HMT140 Utility will either indicate failed or success and specify the IP address in the Result field.

Contact Destination Host

HMT140 Utility will instruct HMT140 to send a transmission (data packet) to the Destination Address. If the Destination responds with an acknowledgement, HMT140 Utility will indicate success, otherwise it will display "Failed" in the Result field. Use the Contact Destination Host function to confirm that HMT140 is sending packets to the Destination.

The Destination must be capable of responding with an acknowledgement for this function to work.
