4 Device Installation and Operation
In order to install the device connect the EAP-E to a suitable power supply with the positive supply
in the centre of the plug. After that connect it to your network hub.
Figure 1: EAP-E Installation
If a DHCP server is connected to your network the EAP-E will automatically acquire an IP address.
In most cases the IP address obtained by the EAP-E can be found out by accessing the DHCP
server, but there is also an easier way to do that.
The Lantronix® DeviceInstaller tool downloadable from
www.lantronix.com
or included on a CD-
ROM with your EAP-E can be used to identify EAP-E devices on the local network either with or
without DHCP.
To do this simply follow these steps:
1. Install and execute the Lantronix® DeviceInstaller
2. If your PC has more than a single network adapter a message will prompt at start-up
requiring you to specify which adapter connects to the local network to which the EAP-E is
connected.
3. Click the Search button to find the EAP-E device on your network
4. If required a fixed IP address can now be assigned by pressing the “Assign IP” button and
following the displayed wizard.
5. To test the communication with the EAP-E select the unit from the main window list and
click
Tools->Ping
.
Once the IP address of the EAP-E is known it is possible to open a telnet session connecting to
the built-in ETRX2. By default the port connecting to the ETRX2 is port number 10001 as shown in
Figure 3. Please note that Figure 3 also shows a local command echo, which is why the characters
of the command ATI are doubled.
