5 Connecting the merger with a PC
The module has a built-in Web Server, which allows to change all settings
via a web browser. To use the web interface, it is necessary to connect the
PX788 module to a computer.
In automatic mode (DHCP), after connecting to the network the merger
attempts to get the network configuration from a DHCP server (e.g router).
Thanks to this, manual configuration of networks parameters is not needed. In
the absence of a DHCP server on the network the merger will operate
according to the static configuration (manual setup). When selecting static
addressing, configure the network parameters so that the PX788 works in the
same subnet as the computer and that there is no conflict of IP addresses
(devices must have unique IP addresses in the network).
If the merger obtained the IP address from the DHCP server, unplugging
the network cable will cause the loss of the assigned IP address. If PX788 is
reconnected to the network, it will try to get a new address from the DHCP
server, if it fails to receive the address, it will work according to the saved
static settings.
It is recommended to use automatic addressing and connect the merger
to the network with a running DHCP server.
If the merger is connected directly to the computer (no DHCP server), it is
necessary to manually set the network parameters of both the computer and
PX788 so that they work in one network and connect the devices with a
crossover Ethernet cable.
