Silex technology SX-500-1402 manual Ping ipaddress

ping ipaddress

Where ipaddress is the desired IP address of the Serial Device Server and macaddress is the MAC address of the Serial Device Server (found on the label affixed to the Serial Device Server). For example:

arp –s 192.168.5.53 00:40:17:00:00:01 ping 192.168.5.53

Note that Windows systems use the format xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx for the MAC address (for example, 00-0017-00-00-01).

You will see a reply from the Serial Device Server with the number of bytes and other information if the address was successfully set.

If you get an error message or no response, then the IP address was not set. If this is the case, the Serial Device Server may not be at its default configuration. To reset the Serial Device Server to its default settings, hold down the reset pushbutton for more than five seconds.

d.You are now ready to configure the Serial Device Server (skip the remainder of this section).

NOTE: Skip the following step if you have configured IP address of the Serial Device Server using an Ethernet cable.

3.If you are using a wireless connection for the first-time configuration of the Serial Device Server, you must set up a temporary ad hoc wireless connection as described in the following steps. Please note that because this is a fairly complex process, we do not recommend it unless it is not possible to use a wired connection.

a.Disconnect your PC and the Serial Device Server from your network, and temporarily set the PC settings as follows:

∙IP address: 192.0.0.191

∙Wireless Mode: Ad Hoc (sometimes referred to as Peer-to-Peer)

∙Channel: 11

∙SSID (or wireless network name): serserv

b.Power on the PC and the Serial Device Server. You can connect to the Serial Device Server by specifying its default IP address of 192.0.0.192 using a web browser as described in the next section. When you have connected to the Serial Device Server, you must then change the IP address and enter the required wireless networking parameters using either the web browser interface or the internal command console (see next two sections) for operation on your wireless network.

c.After you complete the entire Serial Device Server configuration process, you must set your PC back to its original network settings.
