PI DBox
IP Addressing
The default IP address for the PI DBox is 192.168.0.200. When the IP jumper is installed, the default
address changes to 192.168.0.199. Since each device at the site must have a unique IP address, it
may be necessary to reconfigure all DBoxes to avoid conflicting addresses on the network. The IP
address for each PI DBox may be changed by following one of two procedures.
Changing IP Address
Using either of these methods to change the IP address of a PI DBox, the default IP jumper must be
installed and must remain installed throughout the entire procedure. Once the procedure is
completed, remove the jumper and reset the DBox.
Preferred Method: Run Device Installer
Install the IP jumper, power cycle the DBox and then run Lantronix Device Installer. (Lantronix
Device Installer is on the install disk supplied by Progressive International or may be found at
the Lantronix wed site lantronix.com.) Once the update is complete, remove the jumper and
reset the DBox.
Alternative Method: Run HyperTerm configure and set up a new connection using Winsock with
TCP protocol
Install the IP jumper and power cycle the DBox. Then run HyperTerm configure and set up a
new connection using Winsock with TCP protocol. Under Name, select any name for the
session. Icon to appear onscreen may be changed under the Icon selection. Click on OK.
