ETHERNET SOFTWARE SETTINGS
Ethernet is required for use by Production Monitoring.
It provides the bandwidth and flexibility required for
proper operation of the Production Monitoring PC soft-
ware and the ability of the Power Wave to send E-mail
data.
Address Configuration
Every device on a network must have a unique
address (IP Address). If installing the Power Wave on
a corporate network or any network controlled by an
administrator, contact the administrator and request
an IP Address for the Power Wave, as well as its
Subnet Mask and Default Gateway Address, which
are also necessary network settings.
If no network administrator is available, or if installing
on an uncontrolled local network, use the following
settings:
• IP Address: 192.168.1.x (where x can range from 2
to 254). Make sure that this setting
does not conflict with any other device
on the network.
• Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
To program the Power Waveʼs network settings, use
the Weld Manager Utility included with the Power
Wave Utilities CD.
To start the utility, click on the Windows "Start" button,
then navigate to Programs > Lincoln Electric > Power
Wave Utilities > Weld Manager.
Refer to the “Help Me Connect” guide and the Weld
Manager user Manual (also included on the CD-Rom)
for assistance with connecting to your Power Wave.
