Connecting
the

for
the
First
Time
(a) Connect power. Apply +12 to +24VDC or 24VAC to the terminal marked “POWER”, and
common or ground the the terminal marked “GND”.
(b) Connect a CAT5 cable between the RJ-45 jack on the top and your network switch or hub.
You cannot connect directly to your PC unless you use a “crossover” cable.
(c) Apply power. A blue LED inside the case should light indicating power is present. If the
yellow LED on the RJ45 jack is not on, check your Ethernet cable connections. Both green and
yellow LEDs on the RJ45 jack will be on solid for a time during boot-up. The entire bootup
process will take 1-2 minutes, during which time you will not be able to connect with a browser.
(d) The default IP address as shipped is 10.0.0.101. If your PC is not already on the 10.0.0.0
domain, you will need to add a route on your PC. Do this by opening a command prompt. First
type “ipconfig” and note the IP address listed. This is your PC’s IP address. Now type the
command
route add 10.0.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 1.2.3.4
but substitute your PC’s IP address for 1.2.3.4.
This generally works, but if this fails, you will need to temporarily change your computer’s IP
address to a fixed address that starts with 10.0.0. and ends with anything but 101.
