What IP address should I use with xPC Target to connect the host and target computers using a TCP/IP crossover cable?

The host computer connects directly to the target computer via TCP/IP connection without going through the Local Area Network. The two computers are linked directly with a crossover cable.

To begin, use an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cross-over cable with RJ45 connectors for direct connection between the host and target computers, and then use the following steps:

1) Enter the following command at the MATLAB command prompt on the host computer:

!ipconfig

2) Assign the target computer IP address to be 1 above the host PC IP address. For example, if IPCONFIG returns the IP address of "192.168.1.100", then enter an IP address of "192.168.1.101" for your target computer in the XPCSETUP GUI.
