Chapter 1: Quick Setup Guide
1.1 Overview
Each 2410 module is assigned a static IP address. By assigning
a unique IP address to each module, it is possible to connect a
virtually limitless number of modules to a network.
As shipped from the factory, the IP address is set to
192.168.24.10 with
netmask
255.255.0.0
. These
settings may be changed by following the directions given
below.
1.2 Select Network Addresses
1. Choose a temporary IP address for the 2410 module.
This address must be compatible with the network that
will be used to configure the module, and it will only be
used during the configuration process.
Make sure the temporary address you choose is not used
by another host on the configuration network.
Example:
Your configuration network is
192.168.0.0
with
netmask
255.255.0.0
. The only other hosts on this
network are your PC at
192.168.1.2
and a router at
192.168.1.1
. In this case an arbitrary, unused address
such as
192.168.1.25
may be used for the module.
2. Choose a permanent IP address for the module. This is a
static address that will be permanently assigned to the
module unless you manually change it again later. The
permanent address must be compatible with the network to
which the module will be attached in your application.
Make sure the permanent address you choose is not used
by any other hosts on the target network. The permanent
address may be the same as the temporary address (in step
1, above) if the module is being configured on the target
LAN.
Example:
Your target network is
10.0.0.0
with netmask
255.0.0.0
. In this case you could assign an arbitrary,
unused address such as
10.1.2.3
to the module.
1.3 Configure the Network Interface
1. Connect the module to your configuration LAN with an
Ethernet patch cable, Category-5 or higher. Use a
crossover cable if you are connecting the module directly
to a computer, otherwise use a standard patch cable.
2. Apply 24VDC power to the module.
3. Switch to Configuration mode. Hold down the module’s
CONFIG pushbutton while you press and then release the
RST pushbutton. The blue LED under the CONFIG
pushbutton will light when the module is in Configuration
mode. If multiple modules are connected to your network,
ensure that only one module is in Configuration mode.
4. Program the temporary IP address.
Run ARP with this command line:
arp -s
Example:
arp -s 192.168.1.25 08-00-56-FF-FF-FF
Windows
You can do this in either of the following ways:
• Navigate to Start | Run, then type the command into the
dialog box and click OK.
• Open a console window, then type the command at the
shell prompt followed by Enter.
Linux
Open a shell, then type the command at the shell prompt
followed by Enter.
5. Open this URL from a web browser:
http://
Example:
http://192.168.1.25/config.htm
The module’s Configuration web page should appear in
your browser window.
6. Program the permanent network settings. In the
designated field on the Configuration web page, enter the
permanent IP address you chose earlier. If necessary, also
enter a new netmask and gateway address. Click the
Submit button and wait for the page to reload.
7. Reset the module. Press and release the RST pushbutton.
Your permanent network settings are now in effect.
