Verify the connection
Follow the steps below to verify the Ethernet/IP connection using your laptop.
1 Set up a static IP on the PC by going to Windows Start Menu > Settings > Control Panel > Network
> Network Connections. Select the Ethernet Connection, click the right mouse button, and select
Properties. Select Internet Protocol, and click on Properties. If the Click 301 IP address is on the
172.16.0.xxx, input a static IP address for the laptop that is different from any other devices on the net-
work, such as 172.16.0.250 and a subnet of 255.255.255.0 and then click OK.
2 Connect a crossover Ethernet cable between the laptop and the Ethernet port on the Click 301.
3 To check the connection, ping the Click 301: go to the Start menu and select Run. Type “cmd” into the
dialog box that appears. The cmd.exe program will open.
4 Type “ping” followed by the IP address of the Click 301. Hit Enter. If you get a response, the connection
is working properly. If the request times out or you get a message saying the IP address could not be
found, something is wrong with your Click 301 Ethernet connection.
