Check with your network administrator before setting up or changing network properties.
Prerequisites:
NOTE: If you are changing network properties, write down any changes you make so that you can reach the changed remote controller
after rebooting.
- Navigate to .
The Display Names and Network Settings view opens. These names specify two separate titles that appear in the top right area of the browser. The Station Display Name precedes the System Display name, which also serves as a link to the Home view.
- Type names and click the Update Display Names button.
The names appear in the top right corner of the title bar. The
Interfaces properties are displayed under the Network Settings heading in the lower part of the view. The following steps are for the
TCP/IP settings located directly under the DHCPv4 option list. On initial setup, these properties contain the temporary factory-shipped
IP Address.
CAUTION: Do not enable DHCP unless you are certain that the network has DHCP servers! Otherwise, the controller may become unreachable
over the network. In general (for stability), it is better to use static IP addressing instead of DHCP, if possible.
- For
IPv4 Address, assign an IP address to the controller that is unique for the network you are installing it on.No other device on the network should use the same IP address.
- For
IPv4 Subnet Mask, assign the appropriate subnet mask used by the LAN.
- Review, and if needed, adjust other TCP/IP settings.
- To save your changes, click the Apply Changes and Reboot button.
The controller reboots to complete the network changes. During a reboot, the controller station’s display name (top right
corner of the user interface) dims while the station is unavailable. The display name returns to the normal color when the
station is restarted.
