CHANGING THE INCODEX ONE’S FACTORY DEFAULT NETWORK SETTINGS
If you provided LEIGHTRONIX with your network settings, your IncodeX One was set up with this information before
it shipped to you and you can skip this section. Otherwise, the IncodeX One is shipped in static network mode with a
temporary IP address. Access and configure the encoder’s network settings as follows:
NOTES:
•
From your network administrator, obtain the IP address and firewall port number for your decoder.
•
If you intend to configure your IncodeX One with static network addresses, obtain a static IP, subnet
mask, and gateway address from your network administrator.
1.
Use a straight-through Ethernet cable (such as one of the cables included with your Point-to-Point solution) to
connect your IncodeX One’s Ethernet port to the Ethernet port on a laptop or PC.
2.
Each IncodeX One’s temporary IP address is based on its own unique serial number, so you will need to de-
termine the temporary static IP address assigned to your IncodeX One. All IP addresses contain four sets of
numbers separated by periods. The first two sets of numbers in an IncodeX One’s static IP address will always
be “169.254.” The last two sets in the temporary IP address can be determined as follows:
a.
Obtain the last four characters of your IncodeX One’s serial number from the sticker on the encoder’s back
panel.
b.
Next, convert these four characters from their hexadecimal format into the decimal format used in your Inco-
deX One’s temporary static IP address. You will find many free, third party calculators that will do this for you
by doing an Internet search on “hexadecimal to decimal calculator.” Enter the first two characters into the
calculator to obtain the first decimal value and then the last two characters to obtain the last decimal value of
your IncodeX One’s temporary IP address.
For example, if the last four characters of your IncodeX One’s serial number is “02AC,” your temporary static
IP address would be 169.254.2.172, where the hexadecimal “02” converts to decimal “2” and hexadecimal
“AC” converts to decimal “172.”
3.
Access the IncodeX One’s browser-based interface as follows:
a.
Open an Internet browser on the computer connected to your IncodeX One.
b.
In the URL address line, enter the IncodeX One’s temporary static IP address and press enter. You will be
prompted to enter a username and password (see Illustration 1).
NOTE:
If your laptop or PC cannot find your IncodeX One, you may need to change the laptop/PC’s IP ad
-
dress so it is in the same range as the default IP address for your IncodeX One. Change the first
two values of your computer’s IP address to “169.254” and ensure the fourth value is at least one off
from the last value in IncodeX One’s default IP address. For example, if your IncodeX One’s default
IP address is “169.254.2.172,” you could use “169.254.2.173” as the IP address for your computer.
