Quick Setup Guide

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 08-00-56-FF-FF-FF

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:///config.htm

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.
