Default Configuration
The default factory configuration of the D2 W MDME 2400 is:
•
Client/Bridge/.
•
IP address192.168.0.1XX, where XX is the last two digits of the serial number (the default IP
address is shown on the printed label on the back of the module).
•
Netmask 255.255.255.0.
•
Username is “
user
” and the default password is “

”
The D2 W MDME 2400 will temporarily load some factory default settings if powered up with the
factory default switch (on the end-plate of the module) in SETUP position. When in SETUP mode,
wireless operation is disabled. The previous configuration remains stored in non-volatile memory
and will only change if a configuration parameter is modified and the change saved.
Do not forget to set the switch back to the RUN position and cycle power at the conclusion
of configuration for resumption of normal operation.
3.3
Configuring the Unit for the First Time
The D2 W MDME 2400 has a built-in web server containing web pages for analysis and
modification of configuration. The configuration can be accessed using Microsoft
®
Internet
Explorer. This program is shipped with Microsoft Windows or may be obtained freely via the
Microsoft web site.
Configuration of IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask may also be accessed via the RS232
serial port.
Accessing Configuration for the First Time.
There are two methods for accessing the configuration inside a D2 W MDME 2400. The first
method requires changing your computer settings so that the configuring PC is on the same network
as the D2 W MDME 2400 with factory default settings.
This is the preferred method
and is much
less complicated than the second method. You will need a “straight-through” Ethernet cable
between the PC Ethernet port and the D2 W MDME 2400. The factory default Ethernet address for
the D2 W MDME 2400 is 192.168.0.1XX, where XX are the last two digits of the serial number
(check the label on the back of the module).
The second method requires setting an IP address in the D2 W MDME 2400 such that it is
accessible on your network without having to change your network settings.
3.4.1 Set PC to Same Network as D2 W MDME 2400.
Connect the Ethernet cable between unit and the PC configuring the module.
