Serial Communications
Setting Up an Ethernet
Connection
A modified DF868 can use the Ethernet interface to communicate
with an internal network. An optional Ethernet card with a unique
MAC (IP) address (installed only in slots 5 or 6) includes an RJ45
connector. To connect the Ethernet-enabled DF868 to the network,
insert the jack of an RJ45 cable into the RJ45 connector, route the
cable through the bottom of the DF868, and wire the other end of the
cable to the LAN according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
To establish Ethernet communications with the DF868, you must
install the
Ethernet Device Discovery
software utility (available with
your modified DF868) on a PC connected to the LAN. Once installed
and running, the software displays all Ethernet devices currently
connected to the subnet. You can identify the DF868 by its MAC
address, supplied as part of customer documentation. The default IP
Port is 2101.
The default IP addressing for the DF868 is DHCP (dynamic). If you
need to assign a static IP address to the DF868, complete the
following steps:
IMPORTANT:
To assign a static IP address, the DF868 must be
connected to an Ethernet network with a dynamic
address assignment mechanism (DHCP) first.
1.
Run
Ethernet Device Discovery
software, and identify the DF868’s
current IP address.
2.
Open your Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape, or other)
and type the DF868 IP address in the
Address
box.
3.
The
Connect ME Configuration and Management
window opens.
Two text boxes ask for the user name and password.

.
5.
The
IP Settings
window opens. In the text boxes for
IP Address,
Subnet Mask
, and
Default Gateway
, type in the new information.
6.
Click
Apply.
The software applies the new address.
