Expert Power Control NET 24x
3. Configuration
3.1 Automatic configuration by DHCP
After switch-on
EPC NET 24x
looks for a DHCP server and re-
quests an available IP address (
for deactivation of that feature
see 2.2
).
Please check the IP adress allocated to
EPC NET 24x
in the
DHCP server settings to make sure that the same address is
used at every reboot.
3.2 Network configuration by
GBL_Conf.exe
For changing the network properties manually, the program
GBL_Conf.exe
is required. This tool is available for free on our
website
www.gude.info
.
Furthermore
GBL_Conf.exe
enables you to install firmware
updates and to reset
EPC NET 24x
to its factory settings (
see
5.2)
.
Activate bootloader mode of
EPC NET 24x
and run
GBL_
Conf.exe
(
see 5.1
). The program will look automatically for con-
nected devices and will display their network configuration.
If the displayed IP address accords with the factory settings
(192.168.0.2), there is either no DHCP server available in the
network or no free IP address could be allocated.
Enter a free IP address and the according netmask in the entry
mask, then save these changes by clicking on
Program Device
g
SaveConfig
.
Restart
EPC NET 24x
by switching it off and on
again, so that the chang-
es will take effect. Now
click on
Search
in order
to have the new network
configuration displayed.
