AK-PI
100
Installation
Preparing the TCP/IP connection
The AK-PI 100 must be linked to the AK-SC 255 physically and also
with a software setting. You can do this as follows:
1. Connection
Cables are run from the units to a router or to a switch.
2. Setting
a) Router
- Dynamic: If DHCP is enabled, no settings need to be
changed in the router
- Static: Check that the static address range does not conflict
with the DHCP range
b) Switch
No direct settings are necessary, but addresses are always
static for AK-SC 255 and AK-PI 100
c) AK-SC 255
- Choose static if the AK-SC 255 and AK-PI 100 are connected
by a switch or if the system can be accessed from outside.
Then configure the IP address (request an IP address from
the IT officer of the department).
- Select dynamic if the system is self-contained and both units
are connected to a router.
d) In the AK-PI 100, set IP addressing to either static or dynamic.
- Choose static if the AK-SC 255 and AK-PI 100 are linked by a
switch. Then configure the IP address (request an IP address
from the IT officer of the department).
- Select dynamic if the system is self-contained and both units
are connected to a router.
3. If a router or switch is connected, turn it on.
