Changing Menu Panel IP Address
Set the Karrera K-Frame Menu Panel IP addresses using the Windows XP

Eng Setup

follow the standard Windows IP address setting procedure.
See Menu Panel Registration on page 116 regarding additional configuration

Setting 32-Crosspoint Remote Aux Panel IP Address
The default IP addresses of Remote Aux Panels are set to at the factory
before shipment will not work with a Karrera K-Frame system whose other
components are set to defaults. Typically, Karrera K-Frame systems are
equipped with more than one Remote Aux Panel. If more than one Remote
Aux Panel will be used on your Karrera K-Frame system, you will need to
change each panels’ IP addresses so none are duplicated, and this must be
done before you connect them to the network. This will require a mouse
and keyboard connected to a PC disconnected from the network.
Check with your network administrator to learn what IP addresses should
be used at your facility.
Setting the IP Address
A PC equipped with an Ethernet interface and a web browser is required to
change Remote Aux Panel IP addresses.
1. With the PC disconnected from all facility networks, connect the PC’s
Ethernet port directly to the Remote Aux Panel.
Note A crossover Ethernet cable (Tx/Rx pair crossed) is needed when connecting
a PC directly to the Remote Aux Panel without a hub intermediary.
2. Start the web browser, enter the default IP address (192.168.1.2) in the
address field, and press
Enter
. If the address is found, a Panel Status
screen similar to Figure 78 will appear.
Note If the Remote Aux Panel address is not found, you may need to reset the
panel to its defaults (see
page 115 ).
