A.3 Configure Your Network Interface (continued)
If your present address in not in the 192.168.0.xxx range, type in ‘ncpa.cpl’ at the command prompt and hit
[Enter] on the keyboard.
In Windows 7, this open the
Network Connections
window. Double click on the appropriate interface.
In the window that opens, select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP v4)” from the list and then click
on the [Properties] button.
In Windows 8 and 10, this open the Network Connections window. Double click on the appropriate
interface. In the window that opens, select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IP v4)” from the list and
then click on the [Properties] button.
Set the address and subnet mask to appropriate values. (192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0 will work for an
SD17060E2 or SD31045E2 that has factory default settings.) The default gateway and DNS server settings
can be ignored.
A.4 Test Your Network Interface
Going back to the terminal you opened in the last step, type in ‘ping aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ where
‘aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd’ in the IP address of the SD17060E2 or SD31045E2. The computer will ping the Networked
Driver and the message “Reply from aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=128” should appear four
times.
If the message “Request timed out.” or “Destination host unreachable” appears, then one of four things has
occurred:
You set a new IP address, but have not yet cycled power to the SD17060E2 or SD31045E2
You did not enter the correct address in the ping command.
The IP address of the SD17060E2 or SD31045E2 is not set correctly.
The SD17060E2 or SD31045E2 and the computer are not on the same subnet.
