Configuring Communication

12.Click OK to return to the Communications Settings dialog and place a checkmark within the Authentication Required radio box if your Master has been previously secured with a username/ password. This opens up a Master Controller User Name and Password dialog.

13.Within this dialog, you must enter a previously configured username and password (with sufficient rights) before being able to successfully connect to the Master.

14.Click OK to save your newly entered information and return to the previous Communication Settings dialog.

If you are currently connected to the assigned Master, a popup asks whether you would want to temporarily stop communication to the Master and apply the new settings.

16.Click Yes to interrupt the current communication from the Master and apply the new settings.

17.Once the particular System Master is configured for communication via an IP Address, remove the DB9 connector from the Program port on the NI on-board Master.

18.Click Reboot (from the Tools > Reboot the Master Controller dialog) and wait for the System Master to reboot. The STATUS and OUTPUT LEDs should begin to alternately blink during the incorporation. Wait until the STATUS LED is the only LED to blink.

19.Press Done once until the Master Reboot Status field reads *Reboot of System Complete*.

20.Click the OnLine Tree tab in the Workspace window and right-click the associated System number and select Refresh System. This establishes a new connection to the specified System and populates the list with devices on that system. The communication method is then highlighted in green on the bottom of the NetLinx Studio window.

If the connection fails to establish, a Connection Failed dialog appears. Try selecting a different IP Address if communication fails.

Press the Retry button to reconnect using the same communication parameters. Press the Change button to alter your communication parameters and repeat steps 4 thru 18.
