CDI-46 Installation and Setup Guide V1.3

Double-click on the CDI-46 entry. This should open your default browser and make the CDI-46’s web pages visible.

The first page to be displayed on initial connection will be the PIN entry page; enter the Installer PIN (the factory default is

1234*) to authorise access. Click

Login

and the Zone 1 Settings page will be displayed.

Click the menu icon at the right hand end of the blue Cloud banner and now select

Config

, followed by

Network

. This will open the

Communications

page:

* It is recommended that the factory default PIN is changed to something less obvious when installation is complete.

We recommend that the CDI-46 should either be set with a static IP address (i.e., with DHCP disabled), or uses a fixed DHCP

allocated-address on your routing hardware. It will then have a fixed IP address on the network for other devices to browse to.

Ensure that a suitable IP address is reserved on the network to which you intend to connect the device. If the CDI-46 changes

IP address, users or third-party control applications may not be able to locate it. (Installers may need to consult the client’s IT

Manager for guidance.)
Note that when

DHCP

is enabled, values in the

IP Address

Subnet Mask

and

Gateway

fields are set automatically and

the fields are no longer modifiable.
