CONFIGURING THE SMART MANIFOLD SYSTEM
Consult your System Administrator or IT Department for
information regarding connecting to or communicating
with the Smart Manifold. The ASM – 1 Smart Manifold
Ethernet communications run at 10Base-T data rate and
half duplex. It is recommended that the network interface
to the ASM – 1 Smart Manifold is manually set to these
parameters and NOT to an autoconfigure mode.
Connect the ADH NETCOM dehydrator(s) and equipment
lines after configuration so the system does not go on
and off while configuring. Refer to the help screens.
Factory settings reflect most installations and might
not be the best settings for your needs. Use the default
s’’ettings initially, then change settings as desired for your
own requirements.
It should be noted that both the smart manifold and
Netcom have the same default IP address (192.168.52.9).
In order for them to work together they will each need to
be reconfigured to IP address’s that fall within the system
set up by the IT administrator. The Netcom address will
need to be configured into the smart manifold so it can
monitor and control the dehydrator. Consult the user’s
manual for more details.
1. Using an Ethernet cable, connect to the Smart
Manifold from a PC. A cross-over cable or switch is
recommended. With a web browser, call up Smart
Manifold using the IP address 192.168.52.9.
2. From the Main Page, select Configuration.
3. Select Show/Change Port Info, then confirm settings.
See Instruction Manual for details.
4. Select Redundant, Parallel, or Standalone based on
screen prompts. With ADH NETCOM dehydrator(s),
use Redundant or Parallel. Press Submit to enter
the settings.
5. From the Configuration Page, select Pressure Limits
and confirm settings with your System Administrator.
Change settings if desired, then press Submit.
6. On the IP/Serial Information page, set IP address or
network name. Obtain Mask and Gateway settings
from System Administrator. Note settings, then shut
off Smart Manifold.
SYSTEM SET-UP
1. Connect equipment lines to Smart Manifold, then
dehydrator(s). See Connections section. Leave power
switches OFF and plug each device into surge-
protecting power strips.
