Module Configuration
Configuration of the Inovonics receiver module is carried out using the built-in web interface. To access the web
interface, open an internet browser and type the IP address of the module into the address bar.
When attempting to view the web interface from a network that uses a proxy server, ensure the browser
connection options are configured to recognize local addresses.

Configuration
Programming the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway requires knowledge of the network and subnet
that the system is connected to. You should always consult the network or system administrator before
programming these values.
IP Config
The module can be configured to use either a static or dynamic IP address.
⦁
Physical Address
: The MAC address of the module.
⦁
Enable DHCP
: When enabled, the module will use DHCP to dynamically allocate an IP address instead of using
a static IP address. To use this there must be a DHCP server on the network you are attempting to connect to.
⦁
IP Address
: The module must be programmed with a valid TCP/IP address to allow it to connect to the system
controller. By default the IP address is set to 192.168.1.3.
⦁
Subnet Mask
: Used in conjunction with the IP address, a netmask must be configured to allow access to the
appropriate node on the subnet. By default this is set to 255.255.255.0.
⦁
Gateway
: Used in conjunction with the IP address, the gateway can be configured to allow access to a router
for external communications beyond the subnet to which the module is connected. By default this is set to
192.168.1.1.
⦁
DNS Server
: Defines the IP address of the DNS Server if one is used.
Controller Network Config
The receiver module needs to know which controller it should communicate with.
⦁
UDP IP/Host
: The IP address or host name of the controller.
⦁
UDP Resolved IP/Host
: If a dynamic connection is used, you can confirm the controller's IP address by viewing
this field.
⦁
UDP Port
: The UDP port defines the port the expander uses to connect to the controller. This must match the
controller.
