Configuring the Panel’s IP Address
The first step is to configure the panel’s communication parameters. This only

panel with which Master it should be communicating.

DHCP
settings for a panel, the DHCP server will automatically populate

Static
, however, this information must be entered manually.
To enter the network connection information:
1.
In
DHCP/Static
, press the field until the entry reads “Static”. This enables all of
the editable
Network Connections
page fields.
2.
Select the
IP Address
field to open the
Wired IP Address
keypad (FIG. 7).
3.
Enter the server’s IP address and click
OK
.
4.
Repeat this procedure with the other fields on the
Network Connections
page.
5.
When finished, the new connection information will be visible in the
Network
Connections
page.
Connecting to a NetLinx Master
To establish the type of connection to make between the panel and NetLinx Master:
1.
In the
Connection & Networks
page, select
Master Connection
to open the
Master
Connection
page (FIG. 8).
2.
