1. Go to its Ethernet settings. On a PC it is in Control Panel > Network. On a Macintosh it is in
System Preferences > Ethernet.
2. Select Manual configuration of IPv4.
You may choose your own IP address. For illustration purposes we will start with the static IP address
that comes as the default for the 2300.
3. Set the IP address to 192.168.7.1.
4. Set the Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.
Connect the Ethernet (CAT-5) cable into the Ethernet connector, shown in Figure 2, and connect the
other end to a laptop or desktop computer. Connect AC power to the power connector with the
connections on the power connector labeled in Figure 2. Apply power to the 2300 Controller. The
front panel will first display a splash screen with the AquaMetrix logo.
To set a manual IP address:
1. On the front panel go to Menu>Advanced>Network Setup.
2. Select Network Type and, next, Fixed. The Fixed Network Setup screen will appear.
3. There are three fields in which to enter numbers. For illustration purposes we use the
following set of numbers:
IP Address: 192.168.7.7
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway: 192.168.7.1. (Use the IP address of the connected computer.)
4. When complete, move the cursor down to and press Commit and Restart. A confirmation
screen will appear, move the cursor to Confirm and hit Enter.
2. Configuring the 2300 via a Network or Computer
Enter the unit’s web page address into a web browser connected to the same network as the 2300
Controller or, if not using a network, into the computer’s browser connected to the 2300 Controller via
the Ethernet cable. A web page address will look something like http://192.168.1.7. A login dialog box
will appear, asking for user name and password.
The password here is used on the web to restrict access to administration functions to the system. The
default username is admin, and the default password is aquametrix.
2.1. The Web Menu
Logging into the 2300 via the web as an administrator brings up the Probe Status page, which is
shown in Figure . This displays all enabled probes, their names, values, alarm and relay set points, and
graphs showing the history of values for the previous 15 min. Clicking on a graph enlarges the
history, clicking on a Config button brings up a screen with options including alarm
acknowledgement.
