Enter Button Functionality
:
The Enter button provides the user with two options for local control of the Smart Tracker. When the Enter button is
pressed, held for a particular length of time, and then released, the Smart Tracker will react appropriately to the user
input as described below.
Hot-Start Outlets
: This feature can be activated by pressing and holding the Enter button for 5 seconds and then
releasing. All outlets will turn off and turn back on to provide AC power to each outlet.
IP Reset
: In the event the IP address must be reset or a static IP address assigned, press and hold the Enter button for
10 seconds and then release. This will cause the Smart Tracker to momentarily restart and begin to re-
initialization. The previous state of operation will be reloaded and the factory IP address will then be
displayed.
Section 6: Webpage Interface
Embedded in each Smart Tracker is a webpage that is used to view and configure all outlets, relays, input contacts,
and other necessary system and network parameters. The webpage provides a summary of all parameters and operat-
ing states of each outlet, relay, and input contact, all on one intuitive webpage. Additional pages for unit configuration
and management are also available. Each feature of the embedded webpage will be described in this section.
Configuration
:
Each Smart Tracker is factory configured for a static IP address to allow for local configuration and control of the de-
vice. The user should attach an Ethernet cable from a computer prior to powering the device to allow the Smart
Tracker to recognize the local area network and establish connection as described below.
Local Ethernet Connection
:
The following instructions shall be used to locally connect to the Smart Tracker. These instructions assume that the
proper operating conditions exist to allow the Smart Tracker to operate. Additionally, these instructions assume use of
Windows 7/10 based machines. Please follow the instructions below to locally connect to the Smart Tracker. Refer to
the
Troubleshooting
section for network communication and connection problems.
1.
With an Ethernet cable connected to the Ethernet port on the Smart Tracker, ensure the Smart Tracker is
turned on. If the unit is not operating, refer to
Section 5
for “Startup and Operations”.
2.
Ensure the opposing end of the Ethernet cable to from the Smart Tracker is attached to a desktop or laptop
computer. The Smart Tracker will display 0.0.0.0 until a local area network is discovered.
3.
A factory static IP address is assigned to each Smart Tracker. If necessary, the user may press, hold for 10 se-
conds, and release the Enter button to assign a static IP address for local use.
The
default IP address
of the Smart Tracker is
192.168.100.1
.
4.
The desktop or laptop’s network interface card must be configured to the same IP range as the Smart Tracker
in order to access the embedded webpage. See the following steps for local network card reconfiguration.
