Note:
Your PC should be set to “Obtain IP Address Automatically” (default setting).
Note:
For direct connection a standard Ethernet cable should work with most
computers.
IP Reset Push Button / Reset Processor Network Settings (DHCP not available)
Follow these instructions prior to powering up the processor and opening the NeuConsole
software.
(a)
At the rear of the processor you will see a small round recessed push button labeled
“IP Reset”
- just to the right of the Ethernet connector (looking from the back). You are
able to push this reset push button inward using the point of a pen or a small pointed
object.
(b)
Press the IP Reset push button inward and while holding it pushed in power up the
processor device.
(c)
Wait 5 seconds after power up and then release the IP Reset push button.
(d)
Wait for the processor to power up completely (this will take a minute or so as it
initializes and sets its default IP address). When complete the Network LED (Data LED
on older models) will light and remain on.
Note:
Some Uno processors were manufactured with a different IP
Reset
switch that
was hidden behind a removable cover on the rear of the processor. If yours is like that –
Remove the small black cover on the rear of the processor near the Ethernet connector
(remove 2 small screws). Looking from the back of the processor you will see a small
black Reset Switch to the right of the Ethernet connector. Press this Reset Switch
forward lightly with your finger and while holding it pressed forward power up the
processor.
Wait 5 seconds after power up and then release the Reset Switch.
The
balance of the process is as above.
Note:
Although not as reliable, each connected device also has a software IP reset
function. In
Network View
, right click the device and select
Remote Reset
.

Multiple Processor Devices Connected to the Network – No DHCP Available
Where you will be connecting multiple processors in your network and DHCP is not
available, the user will have to manually assign unique IP addresses to each processor
device.
