Configuration and Operation
3.1 Getting
Started
The first step consists in obtaining an IP address for SSE232-LE , by any of the following means:
Using the Device Locator application program (most recommended method).
Forcing an IP address entry to the ARP table.
Locally, by accessing the command console provided by SSE232-LE , at the serial
connection.
Once SSE232-LE has an IP address, the rest of the parameters can be configured:
By accessing the configuration web page of the equipment (most recommended
method).
Using the TCP command console.
Locally, by accessing the command console provided by SSE232-LE , at the serial
connection.
All configuration parameters are permanently stored in the memory and will be maintained even
in the event the equipment shuts down. Configuration parameters may be modified at any time
using any of the methods mentioned above.
3.1.1 IP Address Configuration
SSE232-LE default configuration is IP 0.0.0.0, so when turned on, it will search for a DHCP server.
SSE232-LE tries to negotiate an IP address with the DHCP server for a maximum period of 10
seconds. If the DHCP server fails to answer in that period, SSE232-LE will show an error code by
means of its indicator LEDs (see annex) and will try to establish connection with the DHCP server
60 seconds later. This process will be repeated indefinitely until a DHCP server assigns an IP
address to SSE232-LE or until the user assigns a static IP address. During the negotiation process,
SSE232-LE ’s yellow LED is steady on.
If you decide that SSE232-LE should have a static IP address (not assigned by a DHCP server) use
the Device Locator Software (Chapter 4.1) ot the serial console method (3.1.4)
There´s a third method to assing and IP address to the SSE232-LE , the ARP method.
