button to open the Serial Settings dialog.

Make sure the correct serial port is selected and the baud rate is correct on the Master Comm
Settings dialog (in the Tools menu). Set the COM port parameters for the selected COM port
being used for communication to the NetLinx Master. Default parameters are: COM1, 38400,
8 Data Bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, and No Flow Control.
8.
Click
OK
three times to close the open dialogs and save your settings.
9.
Click on the OnLine Tree tab in the Workspace window to view the devices on the System. The
default System value is one.
10.
Right-click on the
Empty Device Tree
entry and select
Refresh System
to establish a new
connection to the System's Master and refresh the list with online system devices. The
communication method is highlighted in green on the bottom of the NetLinx Studio window.
Obtaining the Master's IP Address:
1.
Once a connection is made, select
Diagnostics > Network Addresses
from the Main menu to
access the Network Addresses dialog.
2.
Verify the System number corresponds to the value previously assigned in the Device
Addressing tab and verify that zero (0) is entered into the Device field.
3.
Verify that NetLinx appears in the
Host Name
field.
4.
Click the
Use DHCP
radio button from the IP Address section.
5.
Click the
Get IP Information
button to read the IP Address obtained by the Master from the
DHCP Server and configure the unit for DHCP usage.
6.
Note the obtained IP Address. This information is later entered into the Master
Communication Settings dialog and used by NetLinx Studio 2.1 (or higher) to communicate to
the Master via an IP. This address is reserved by the DHCP server and then given to the Master.
7.
Click the
Set IP Information
button to retain the IP Address on the Master. A popup window
then appears to notify you that Setting the IP information was successful and it is
recommended that the Master be rebooted.
8.
Click
OK
to accept the new changes.
9.
Click the
Reboot Master
button and select
Yes
to close the Network Address dialog. This
process closes the Network Addresses dialog and directs you to the Reboot the Master
Controller dialog.
10.
Click
Continue
(from the Reboot Controller dialog) and wait for the System Master to reboot
and retain the newly obtained DHCP Address. The STATUS and OUTPUT LEDs should begin
a alternately blink during the incorporation. Wait until only the STATUS LED is the only LED
to blink.
11.
By default, the Master ships with the option set to wait for a server to assign it an IP Address
via DHCP. If there is no DHCP server on the network it will greatly increase startup time while
the Master waits for an address to be assigned. Therefore, it is recommended that the IP
Address be set to a Static Address.
