Connecting via Wired Ethernet Connection
The steps below show how to connect to DranXperT via a wired Ethernet
connection.
Step Action
1
Connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and the
Ethernet port at the rear panel of the instrument. An Ethernet
cross-over cable may be needed if the computer cannot auto-
detect direct cabling.
2
Connect the power source at the rear panel of the instrument.
3
Power ON the computer, then press the DranXperT power
button on the top panel to turn the instrument ON.

When using DranXperT for the first time, to complete the
Ethernet connection, the computer’s IP address needs to be
changed to be on the same network as DranXperT
’s
default IP
address. This involves changing the IP address properties of
your computer. Please contact your IT department or Dranetz
Technical Support for assistance.

Once the computer’s IP address has been properly configured,
open a web browser and enter the following (default IP
address) into the address bar:
http://192.168.0.40
.

If communications to the instrument are working properly, the
login window below will be displayed, prompting you to enter
the username and password. If you do not see the message
below your computer’s network settings may not be properly
configured or an incorrect IP address is being used.
