Configuration and Setup X-600M Users Manual
Section 3: Configuration and Setup
3.1 Establishing Communications Over Wired Network
In order to configure the X-600M using its built-in web browser, the X-600M and computer must be
addressed on the same network. This can be done by one of two methods:
Method 1 – Use NetBIOS/mDNS to access the X-600M after it has obtained an ip address using DHCP.
-OR-
Method 2 – Temporarily change the IP address of a connected computer to the match the default IP
address used by the X-600M.
Note: If multiple ControlByWeb products are used on the same network, install one at a time and set the
IP address and NetBIOS/mDNS name (or disable NetBIOS/mDNS) of each unit before connecting the
next unit to the network. This avoids having multiple devices on the network with the same factory
default IP address at the same time. If this approach is used, be sure to clear the arp cache after
disconnecting each unit (
arp -d
) and clear the NetBIOS/mDNS cache (“nbstat -RR” on Windows “sudo
killall -HUP mDNSResponder” on OS X Mountain Lion).
3.1.1 Method 1: Use DHCP and NetBios
This option can be used on a new X-600M. For this to work, the X-600M needs to be installed on a
network which has a DHCP server. Most routers have a DHCP server installed and enabled by default.
This method works as follows:
1.
Connect X-600M to local network using an Ethernet Cable.
2.
After the network is connected, apply power (See wiring diagram top-right).
3.
Wait about 15 seconds and enter
http://x600.local/setup.html
into the address bar of
your browser.
4.
Enter the username (
admin
) and password (
webrelay
).
5.
Click on the Network setup pages and change the IP address to the desired setting.
Once connected, make sure to go to the Network > Advanced Network > NetBIOS / mDNS settings tab
and change the Local Host Name from
x600 to another name, especially if you have multiple X-600M
units to configure. Also, you will need to clear the NetBIOS or mDNS cache before configuring another
unit using this method. In Windows, this can be achieved by opening a command prompt as an
administrator and typing “
nbtstat -RR
”. In MAC OS X, stale mDNS entries will be flushed after a
failed communication attempt after about 15 seconds.
If you are not using a router (no DHCP server), or are using a direct connection between the X-600M
and your computer you must use Method 2 described below.
Note: After power-up the X-600M attempts to obtain an IP address from your DHCP server up to three
times in a nine second period. If all attempts fail, the IP address reverts to 192.168.1.2 and you must
use Method 2 as described below.
