PlaneTRack Device Finder Utility
pingpt.exe A Windows utility that finds PlaneTRack devices in local networks by means of a UDP broadcast to/from port 15192. This utility is useful when a PlaneTRack device is operated as a DHCP client.
Instructions: download and unpack the zip file to any place. Execute pingpt.exe. As the utility requires inbound access to UDP port 15192 the Windows inbound firewall alert must be accepted on first run. Any PlaneTRack devices found will be shown in the list.
Note: on Windows PCs that have multiple network adapters active the last enumerated network environment will be searched (see bottom status line for active IP range).
