Note: Once the IP address has been changed the status page will be accessible via this new
address.
Note: It is possible to verify that the correct frame is being viewed by first recording the Hex
switch setting (second line in status list) – this is the setting of the frame address switch.
Rotate this switch to something other than the number displayed. Refreshing the browser
will then reflect this change and verify that the correct frame is being communicated with.
Status
The status page gives an overview of the frame and its power supplies. The
information that can be found here includes general information about the
network attributes, frame name and serial number etc. plus more frame specific
information like internal temperature, fan status and PSU type. Further
information is also given about the individual power supplies.
Changing the IP Address
An Ethernet-enabled frame will need to have its IP address set upon installation.
This is made possible by setting the frame to act as a web server and then
accessing an internal web page. Any software upgrades can also be downloaded to
the frame via this web page.
From this web page you are able then to change the IP address manually or
automatically if DHCP is available. A frame serial number may also be entered.
To reset the IP address, from the status page select the Network link. A new page
will open allowing entry of the required IP address and Netmask. Enter the new IP
address and Netmask information and select Change. Should the frame be
connected to a DHCP running network and a fixed IP address is not required, leave
all the information blank and tick the DHCP box before selecting ‘Change’.
Network Window
Once Change has been selected the Network screen will be replaced by a
confirmation screen. As instructed lever four must be returned to the up position
and the front panel power cycled. This can be achieved by either briefly interrupting
the power to the frame or, if this is not convenient, removing the ribbon-cable
connection to the front panel. Care must be taken not to bend any pins in the cable
connect as attempting to re-straighten any bent pins is likely to result in their
fracture.
