To set up the Ethernet communication, you must define the IP address for the panel, and
identify the Processor Unit in the panel software. These settings allow you to use more than
one Operating Panel on the Processor Unit. You can also control more than one Processor
Unit from a single Operating Panel.
The IP and MAC addresses for your Processor Unit are contained in a text file named
IPandMACaddress.txt
. The file contains the product name, IP address and MAC address in
the following format (example):
MF90
157.237.60.14
AC:1F:6B:1D:42:E6
If the text file is missing you must find the information manually. We suggest that you do
this, and create the necessary folder and txt file before you start the setup process. See
step 1 in the procedure.
Note
If the Operating Panel fails to establish contact with the Processor Unit it will time out and
switch itself off after two minutes. When this happens the blue indicator light stops flashing.
Procedure
