How does the IR2 Control Box know what IP address to use?
When powered on, the IR2 Control Box attempts to communicate to the network to
request an IP address. If a router or hub or other DHCP serving device responds with
an IP address, then the IR2 Control Box knows it is on a network and operates with
the assigned IP address. It is then available by all copies of Nobeltec Admiral on the
network. If after a minute no IP address is given, the IR2 Control box defaults to its
backup IP address which is 192.168.0.1. Resetting the IP address on the Control box
only happens if the power is recycled on the control box.
Connecting IR2 directly to a PC
If you have chosen to connect the radar directly to the PC, the cable supplied with
the radar is the correct cable. However, since Windows
®
is not set up from the manu-
facturer to operate a network without a hub, there are a few steps to follow.
Step 1: Connecting the devices
Using the included Crossover cable connect the Control Box to the PC. Plug either
end into the control box and PC (cable direction is not important.) If the enclosed
cable is too short, you can purchase longer cables (For direct connects – make sure
that you purchase a crossover cable.) The cable should be as short as possible, but
can be up to 200’ if required.
Step 2: Configure your PC to talk directly to the Control box
Windows assumes the existence of a router/hub and is pre-configured to obtain an
IP address automatically. In this case, no such device exists, so the IP address on the
PC needs to change for compatibility with the IR2 Control box.
1. Open the Windows Control Panel. This is typically accomplished by clicking The Start
button, then select Control Panel (Older versions of Windows, may require that you click
the Start button, then Settings and then the Control Panel option).
