4.1 Connecting to the AI-512

All programming and setup of the AI-512 is done with a computer and a web browser. There is
no separate software needed to setup the system. Programming can be done with or without wall
panels actually connected to the AI-512 interface.

To connect a computer to the interface:

Turn off the laptop or desktop computer that will be connected to the AI. It's important that the

computer boots up connected to the AI-512 to establish the network connection.

Apply power to the AI-512. If the interface is part of a Leprecon system, turn on the breaker for

the DC power to the interface. Wait three minutes for the AI to boot.

Attach a crossover type Ethernet cable (supplied with the unit) from the front panel port of the

AI-512 to the Ethernet port of the laptop or PC.

Turn on the PC or laptop. Open the web browser on the PC. The AI-512 supports any browser,

and has been tested with Internet Explorer and Firefox.

The browser will produce an error message as it tries to connect to the default Internet web page.

Enter the hardware address of the interface in the browser address box and press enter:

http:\\10.10.10.10

After a few seconds, the opening screen will be displayed from the AI-512.
