Locating an APU using DeviceInstaller
1. Launch DeviceInstaller on the PC on which it was installed
2. Once the DeviceInstaller software is running, press the
Search
button
3. Wait briefly for the program to search out devices and observe the list of discovered
devices. DeviceInstaller will display the current IP address, hardware address, and
status for each XPort.
NOTE:
This will locate all XPort devices on your network, regardless of whether they are
APUs or other non-Fiber SenSys devices. If the MAC address for an APU is not shown
in DeviceInstaller, then the APU is not reachable on the physical network. This typically
means that it is not physically connected to the network.
