1. Select the Ethernet adapter that’s connected to the AN-X. In most
cases there will be just one Ethernet adapter in the computer. The AN-X
must be on the same subnet as the computer.
2. Enter the MAC address of the AN-X you are configuring. This is
printed on the AN-X label. It consists of six pairs of hexadecimal digits,
separated by hyphens. In the example above, it’s 00-0c-1a-00-00-09.
If the AN-X is already online, you can obtain its MAC address using the
Utilities/Locate All AN-X Modules
command.
3. Enter the IP address you intend the AN-X to use.
Step 2
In step 2, you choose a method of restarting AN-X to put it in boot mode.
The preferred method is to cycle power on the AN-X. Select the first
option on the screen and click the Next >> button.
The second method, useful if the AN-X in not easily accessible, is to
send it a command over Ethernet. The AN-X must be powered on and
completely running for this method to work. For example, if this is the
first time you are configuring a new AN-X, allow sufficient time for it to
acquire an IP address from a DHCP server or to time out and use its
default IP address (about 3 minutes). Select the second option on the
screen and click the Next >> button.
