3.1. connect to the controller
3.1.0. connecting to DLtA 000 001 [Ethernet]
3.1.0.0. connect / Setup Using DHcP
1.
The easiest way to setup your Ethernet version controller is to
connect it to the network with a CAT 5 Ethernet cable. The
controller will automatically retrieve networking settings from
your DHCP server or router and setup on the network.
2.
Next, use the
Delta-T Pro Discovery Tool to find the Controller
and click on ‘Open Web Interface’ to view it in your web
browser. This program is available for download at
www.heliodyne.com/controls.
3.1.0.1. connect Using the Static IP Address
1.
Connect a CAT 5 Ethernet cable from the Controller directly to
your computer’s Ethernet jack (RJ-45).
2.
Allow your computer to assign itself a link local address (this
can take up to a minute).
3.
Open a new browser window and enter the controller’s address:
169.254.148.50
in the address bar. If the Controller interface
does not come up right away, refresh your browser every 5-10
seconds until it loads.
3.1.1. connecting to DLtA 000 002 [Wi-Fi]
1.
In Ad-Hoc mode, the Wi-Fi controllers broadcast a default
network name (SSID) “DTT Pro WiFi” with a suffix of some
combination of 4 characters (e.g. DTT Pro WiFi 3C9D). These
are the last 4 characters of the controller’s MAC Address, which
is a unique number to every controller. This makes it easier
to detect which controller you are connected to when setting
up multiple controllers in close proximity. The SSID in Ad-Hoc
mode can be changed as desired.
2.
Connect to the appropriate Wi-Fi SSID and allow your computer
to assign itself a link local address (this can take up to a
minute).
3.
Open a new browser window and enter the controller’s address:
169.254.148.50
in the address bar. If the Controller interface
does not come up right away, refresh your browser every 5-10
seconds until it loads.
3.2. Infrastructure Mode
The Pro can be easily setup on a network using DHCP. Heliodyne
recommends an IT professional for static IP Configuration. For
additional info see www.heliodyne.com/controls.
3.2.0. DLtA 000 001 [Ethernet]
3.2.0.0. Setup With DHcP
To set an Ethernet controller on a network using DHCP follow the
steps in section 3.1.0.0.
