Zusammenfassung:A skid communicator tool 101 is able to quickly change network settings to those required by a particular skid or network in a process control environment with which a user of the tool wishes to establish communication. A link between a communication interface of the tool 101 and a skid controller is detected. Prevention of communication via a wired link is detected based on a set of initial network settings. An analysis of a set of preconfigured settings identifies one setting associated with the skid controller. The communication interface is automatically configured to establish a communication channel via the link.
