Setting Up a Small Configuration Network
Before connecting the controller to the corporate network, be sure to review the
following information. You may need to set up a small network between the
eMerge system and a PC that can be used to configure the system before it is
connected to the corporate network.
Network Setup has not been evaluated by UL.
The system is configured with a factory default IP address of 192.168.0.250:
•
If this is a valid address on a corporate network that is available for use, you
can connect the system, in its factory default state, to the corporate network
before configuring it. The corporate IT organization will be able to tell you if
the default IP address is available on the corporate network.
•
If the system’s default IP address is not available on the network, it will need
to be changed during the initial software setup, to an address provided by the
corporate IT organization.
Important
: Do not connect the system to the corporate network until its IP
address has been changed to a valid address on that network.
To allow the person who will complete the initial software setup to change the
system’s IP address before connecting it to the network, you should create a
small network between the eMerge system and the configuration PC.
To set up a configuration network:
1.
Put an Ethernet switch between the eMerge system and the PC that will be
used for the initial software setup, as shown in the following figure.
