Modifying LAN and WLAN settings
Using the
Settings
Communication
WLAN
menu, the following settings of
the wireless access point can be modified:
Parameter Description
Network
ID
Network name (or SSID) that is displayed when the device searches for
wireless networks.
Password
Password that authorises the connection to the wireless network.
IP
address
IP address that opens the user interface in the browser with an active
WLAN connection (see page 20).
Subnet
mask
Subnet mask of the wireless network. It is recommended to keep the
default: 255.255.255.0.
The settings must then be saved using the
button.
A restart is necessary for the changes to the WLAN settings to take effect!
When changes are made to the name and/or password of the WLAN network,
the data on the information plate (see page 18) on the backside of the supply
module are no longer applicable. It may therefore be necessary to inform other
colleagues about the change.
Using the
Settings
Communication
LAN
menu, the network adapter
settings can be modified:
Parameter Description
Static /
DHCP
Because most local networks automatically distribute the network settings
to the clients, it is recommend that you select the setting
DHCP
. After a
successful registration in the network, the provided settings (including the
IP address at which the device is accessible) are displayed in the fields
below.
If the network to which the supply module is connected does not support
DHCP, the switch must be set to
Static
and the network settings must be
adapted to the configuration of the network.
IP address
IP address at which the device is available within the network.
When a fixed IP address is entered manually, it must be ensured that this
address is not already assigned to another computer.
Subnet
mask
Subnet mask of the local network.
Broadcast
Broadcast address of the local network.
Gateway
Address of the standard gateway computer (router) of the local network.
The settings must then be saved using the
button.
