Network Settings Configuration
NOTE: See the "
" section on page 166 for information on choosing
compatible network addresses.
The SME 100 is pre-configured with the following network settings.
IP address:
192.168.254.254
Subnet mask:
255.255.0.0
Gateway:
0.0.0.0
The network settings of the SME 100 can be reconfigured using the following methods.
•
Front Panel Network Configuration
"
(see
page 43); this is best used for new and existing network installations.
•
Web-based User Interface Network Configuration
(see page 85) — This type of
configuration is best used for new network installations that will be initially using the
pre-configured network settings, or for existing network installations where the
SME 100 is properly integrated into a network.
NOTES:
•
To configure the SME 100 using the web-based user interface, the
SME 100 must be connected to a network using compatible network settings.
A control PC (with compatible network settings) must also be connected to the
same network. The control PC uses the IP address of the SME 100 to access
the web-based user interface.
•
For information on how to obtain the current network settings of the SME 100
using the front panel, see the "
" section on page 43.
SME 100 IP Addressing for Multiple Installations
The default IP address and subnet mask is adequate for most installations. When multiple
SME 100 devices are on the network, the IP address of each device must be different
to avoid conflicts and provide consistent communications with the control PC. Since the
default IP address of every SME 100 is 192.168.254.254, it is recommended that the first
SME 100 connected to the network change its IP address immediately. That always ensures
a previously installed SME 100 will be "out of the way" when the next one is connected,
avoiding a conflict (see "
" on page 166 for information on choosing
compatible network addresses).
