FS1-X Default
Network Settings
The FS1-X ships from the factory set for DHCP networking, and can be manually reset to
the following default network settings:
The following topics discuss two ways to set up the FS1-X to communicate over a TCP/IP
network connection: via DHCP or via a static IP address.
Networking Using
DHCP or Default
Static IP
The FS1-X factory default configuration automatically looks for a DHCP server to issue an
IP address. If your network includes a DHCP server, plug the FS1-X into the network and
connect with the FS1-X as follows:
1. Press the
CONFIG
button.
2. Turn the
SELECT
knob to navigate to config parameter
2.2
. Note on a piece of paper
the DHCP-supplied IP address shown.
3. With your laptop or desktop computer connected to the same LAN as the FS1-X and
DHCP enabled, type the IP address you noted into the browser address field and
press
Enter
. You should now see the FS1-X’s browser
Status
screen.
If the FS1-X cannot get an address from the network DHCP server, the FS1-X will
automatically use a preset factory static IP address of 192.168.0.2. You can access the
FS1-X using the default static address as follows:
1. Set your computer's IP address to whatever address you prefer.
2. Set the computer’s Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 (most PCs default to the proper
netmask when the address is set).
3. Set the gateway address, if used, to match the FS1-X default: 192.168.0.1.
Alternatively, change the FS1-X gateway address to match your gateway:
A. Press
CONFIG
, turn
SELECT
to
2.4 Default Gateway
, push and then turn
ADJUST
to
change the first group of digits.
B. Turn
SELECT
to advance to the next set of numbers, and turn
ADJUST
to set these
numbers.
C. Continue using
SELECT
and
ADJUST
to set the full address.
D. When finished, push
ADJUST
momentarily to save the address.
4. Run a browser on the computer and type “192.168.0.2” (the factory static IP address).
You should now see the FS1-X’s browser status screen.
When you can access the FS1-X screens, see
“Browser Remote Control” on page 90
for
details about configuring the FS1-X using a browser.
Networking the
FS1-X Using Your
Own Static IP
If you don’t want to use DHCP or the default static IP address, you can set your own static
IP address:
1. Select the
CONFIG
button and use the
SELECT
knob to navigate to parameter
2.1 IP
CONFIG
. Use the
ADJUST
knob to select
Static
.
2. Turn
SELECT
to navigate to parameter
2.2 IP ADDRESS
. The display shows the default
static IP address: 192.168.0.2.
