Connecting a LAN-XI Module Directly to a PC
This method only works when both the module and the computer are
configured to be DHCP clients. To reconfigure the module to be a
DHCP client, follow the instructions in “Connecting a LAN-XI Module
to a Network” on page 6.
To connect a LAN-XI module directly to a PC:
1) Connect the PC and LAN-XI module with a standard LAN cable and
wait until an IP address is obtained. The message that the PC may
give about having limited or no connectivity is an indication that
the connection is working.
An IP address in the default range 169.254.*.*, will be assigned to
the module and shown on its display.
2) Open a browser on your PC and enter the IP address to open the
front end’s web page (will also work on smartphones, tablets,
etc.).
Alternatively both the PC and the LAN-XI module may have static
addresses in the same subnet.
Setup of LAN-XI Notar
If your LAN-XI Notar was ordered at the same time as the LAN-XI module, then the LAN-XI Notar firmware and license will have been
installed and tested at Brüel & Kjær. Go to “Using LAN-XI Notar” on page 13.
If your LAN-XI Notar was ordered separately, go to “Installing a LAN-XI Notar License” on page 12.
