Finally, navigate to the “Administrator Setting” page as shown in figure 12.
Set the “IP Address” field to the IP address which the Serial-To-Ethernet Converter (D 4231) is to occupy, once connected to
the ethernet network. This is the address from step 2 of the setup on page 2.
Note: This IP address will be required, along with the communication port number, for the configuration software which
accesses the Redback® compatible product.
Adjust the Subnet Mask if needed (in almost all instances, this can be left as is).
Adjust the “Gateway” address if it is required. Taken from step 4 of the setup on page 2.
The login ID and password can also be changed here if needed.

IMPORTANT: Once the Update button is pressed on this screen, the Serial-To-Ethernet Converter (D 4231) will
immediately move to its new IP, and new login details, and will no longer be accessible on this temporary
network. Double check all previously mentioned fields have been set correctly before pushing the updated
values through.
Note: Navigating away from a page will lose all information entered, unless it is accepted by pressing the “Update” button.
Once all fields have been confirmed correct, accept and save the fields by pressing the “Update” button. The adaptor will
need to reset after this, so press the “Reset” button which shows up and then the “ok” button. This will attempt to navigate
to the old IP, which is no longer valid and will fail.
At this point, the setup is complete and the Serial-To-Ethernet Converter (D 4231) can now be unplugged.
If not using a USB-Ethernet adaptor (D 2330B), reset the PC Ethernet Settings back to what they were prior to this procedure
using the information recorded earlier.
The Serial-To-Ethernet Converter (D 4231) can now be installed and connected to the compatible Redback® product via the
supplied adaptor board as shown in figure 1.
Note: The IP address and port used in the settings will be required for the configuration software which accesses the
Redback® compatible product.
