Configuration with Web Page Interface
Note: Beginning with version 1.09 firmware, the ability to configure the
eBOX with the eBOX Configuration Utility while the eBOX is in use
was added. For this reason, using the eBOX Configuration Utility to
configure the eBOX is the recommended method to configure the
eBOX.
When SW8 is set in the ‘On’ position, the eBOX allows access to
the configuration web page. On this page, various settings such as
port rate and parity, IP addresses and ports, and password can be
modified.
Note: The eBOX will not send Serial/GPI messages when the eBOX is
set to configuration mode.
This page is accessed by setting SW8 to the ‘On’ position and
time, the normal operation of the eBOX is suspended. Make any
changes that are necessary for your system and click on SUBMIT.
These changes are stored in nonvolatile memory and are loaded at
power up.
Note: The configuration web page is always set to 192.168.254.102
regardless of the state of the DIP switches.
Note: In the configuration mode, the subnet mask is set to
255.255.255.0. This means that the eBOX will only see traffic from
computers with and IP address of 192.168.254.nnn. You will need to
change your computers IP address to 192.168.254.nnn where nnn =
any number except 0, 102 and 255. This will allow your computer to
access the configuration page of the eBOX.
Switch SW8 to the ‘Off’ position and power cycle the eBOX so the
changes are loaded.
The configuration web page is shown on the next page.
