Initial start up

When you power on the IPL T CR48 for the first time, there are two ways to set up the IP address:

zzUse the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) command method. zz Use the direct PC method.

The default Web pages that are preloaded on the IPL T CR48 provide a way to reconfigure the unit once it has an active network connection with IP access. These Web pages are compatible with Internet Explorer® (version 6.0 or higher). See Communication with the Interface in the “Communication and Control” section for information on accessing and configuring the controller.

Once the unit has been reconfigured, an Ethernet (intranet or Internet) connection can subsequently be used to contact or control it. See Ethernet Connection, earlier in this section, for additional information.

IPL T CR48 Interface Configuration

Configuring the IPL T CR48 using the ARP command

You can make use of the ARP command to set up an IP address for your IPL T CR48. The ARP command tells your computer to associate the MAC address of the IPL T CR48 with the assigned IP address. You must then use the ping command to access the IPL T CR48 unit, at which point the IP address of the device server is reconfigured.

NOTE: To use this setup method, both your computer and IPL T CR48 must be

connected to the same LAN. Or, you can use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect the device server directly to the Ethernet card of the computer.

Use ARP to configure the IP address as follows:

1.Obtain a valid IP address for your IPL T CR48 from your network administrator.

2.Obtain the MAC address of the IPL T CR48 from the label on its back panel.

3.If the unit has never been configured and is still set for factory defaults, go to step 4. If not, perform a Mode 4 system reset. See Resetting the Controller in the “Installation and Operation” section for detailed information on reset modes.

CAUTION: The IPL T CR48 unit must be configured with the factory default IP address — 192.168.254.254 — before executing the ARP command, as described in the following steps.
