It is possible to communicate with AfterBurner-2 through its Ethernet port using a PC with a
web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox.
5.1 Setting
the
IP
Address
By default, AfterBurner-2 is shipped set to DCHP IP addressing where the network DHCP
sever allocates the unit’s IP address. The procedure for connecting to AfterBurner-2 over a
local network (rather than a remote or wireless network) is as follows:
Procedure for DHCP IP Addressing:
1. Ensure the AfterBurner is set to DHCP addressing as shown the Advanced “Set
Network” menu Section 3.10, page 20.
2. Connect the AfterBurner-2 to the network via an RJ45 cable and switch on.
3. Go to the “Set Network” Advanced Menu. If the IP address is shown as
“000.000.000.000”, then DHCP has failed and manual IP addressing is
recommended.
3. Open your web browser and enter the IP address shown above (no need for any
prefix such as
www.
)
4. The AfterBurner-2 web page interface should now be shown.
Procedure for Manual IP Addressing:
1. Go to the Advanced “Set Network” menu and set “DHCP Enabled” to “No”.
2. Enter the required IP address. This should be different to any other device on your
network (the default, is “192.168.0.128”). Press “MNU+” to save the new setting.
3.
Turn the unit off and back on
to enable the change of address.
4. Enter the new IP address in the browser address bar followed by enter.
NB:
The AfterBurner-2 must be power cycled before any change in IP address will take
affect.
At the login page, the default Username is
“admin” and Password is “admin”. The
password can be changed by the "Setup
Advanced" Web page link.
