STEP 1 Install Hardware
Ethernet Port 1
Network Socket
Network Cable
1.3 Connect network cable to System Controller
Default method (requires DHCP during initial setup and requires use of
“Discovery and Installation Wizard”):
• Connect network cable to Ethernet Port 1 using standard network cable
(no crossover cable required)
• Connect controller and PC to network switch
• Make sure PC is confi gured for DHCP or has a static IP address that is
compatible with the infrastructure
• Controller will receive an initial Ethernet Port 1 IP address via DHCP
Direct-connect method (does not rely on DHCP; “Discovery and
Installation Wizard” use optional):
• Directly connect PC to Ethernet Port 2 using a standard network cable
(no crossover cable required)
• Ethernet Port 2 is factory-confi gured for a fi xed address of 169.254.1.200
• Make sure PC is confi gured for DHCP or a static IP of 169.254.1.1
(in case of DHCP, PC will self-assign a 169.254.* address)
• Use Ethernet Port 2 only until the fi nal IP address has been assigned to
Ethernet Port 1 via step 2.2
