4. Connecting Network
This chapter is intended to provide the required information to connect and operate CS-LAN with other serial device such as
Ethernet, serial connection of CS-LAN.
How to connect CS-LAN with a device and network is as shown in the follows.
Before Connecting
In order to connect a CS-LAN to network, a RJ45 Ethernet port is required. Ethernet supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet
connection (automatic recognition of 10/100Mbps). A LAN port in CS-LAN supports a MDIX so that it automatically recognizes
the Ethernet crossover cable and straight through cable. Therefore, the type of cable connection is not a matter. The end of
cable is connected to CS-LAN and other network device.
First-time Use
The users need to check if the input voltage to be provided to CS-LAN to supply power correctly. CS-LAN is turned on and
starts rebooting only when the power is properly supplied.
RDY LED or TXD/RXD LED can be used to check the operation statue and please refer to the “Chapter 3 ‘composition of
hardware” for more detailed information LED states.
It requires an IP address in order to access CS-LAN web. Basically a static IP is given as default setting in CS-LAN. After first
access, enter other IP address manually or IP that is automatically assigned by DHCP server. This depends on the user’s
network configuration and policy but it is strongly recommended to assign a static IP to CS-LAN.
Making Connection
The users need to access web browser or use configuration utility in order to view or set the CS-LAN configurations. Please
refer to SGConfig manual for more detailed information how to use the utilities. This manual is prepared based on the settings
via web browser.
First the users need to know the network address, IP Address where the CS-LAN is being operated.
If LAN port of CS-LAN is used by IP assigned from DHCP or set on a fixed static ID address or unknown ID address, this
manual provides how to access the CS-LAN as follows.
Default IP Address: 192.168.0.223
The default IP address of CS-LAN is set on 192.168.0.223. In order to access this IP address, the network settings should
be changed. Please refer to the followings for setting.
