MO-480/481 CONFIGURATION
The
MO-480/481
module is controlled and configured by means of a computer
directly connected to the
IP CONTROL
port or through an Ethernet network.
5.1
Login
The default IP of this device is 192.168.42.30.
To recover this IP default address, just keep pressed the reset IP button for 10 or
more seconds.
To connect to the modulator, the IP address of the computer has to be changed
in order to have the same IP range of the modulator.
If, as an example, the PC IP address is 192.168.99.252, it would be changed to
192.168.42.xxx (xxx can be 0 to 255 except 30 to avoid conflict with modulator
IP address), then we need to use a web browser to connect the device with our
PC.
When communication is established, the user can change the IP address of the
modulator to suit the range of the Ethernet network or PC. Write down the new
IP address if you change the default IP address of the modulator, as it is required
each time you want to communicate. If after changing, you do not know the IP of
the modulator, the module has a reset button to recover the default IP (see
figure 2).
Check the computer IP is not the same that the modulator IP to avoid conflicts
between IPs.
Then connect the PC and the device with a net cable, and use a ping command to
confirm they are on the same network segment and communication between
them can be established.
Once the communication is checked, open a web browser on the PC, enter the
modulator IP and press ENTER.
