Communication and Firmware Update

System Address reflects the value set in the Device Addressing tab

Used to display the IP Address given to the Master

from the DHCP Server

FIG. 20 Network Addresses dialog (showing Get IP)

DO NOT enter ANY IP information at this time, this step only gets the System Master to recognize that it should begin using an obtained DHCP Address.

6.Note the obtained IP Address.This information is later entered into the Master Communication Settings dialog and used by NetLinx Studio 2.1 (or higher) to communicate to the Master via an IP. This address is reserved by the DHCP server and then given to the Master.

If the IP Address field is empty, give the Master a few minutes to negotiate a DHCP Address with the DHCP Server, and try again. The DHCP Server can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes to provide the Master with an IP Address.

7.Click the Set IP Information button to retain the IP Address on the Master. A popup window then appears to notify you that Setting the IP information was successful and it is recommended that the Master be rebooted.

8.Click OK to accept the new changes.

9.Click the Reboot Master button and select Yes to close the Network Address dialog. This process closes the Network Addresses dialog and directs you to the Reboot the Master Controller dialog.

10.Click Continue (from the Reboot Controller dialog) and wait for the System Master to reboot and retain the newly obtained DHCP Address. The STATUS and OUTPUT LEDs should begin to alternately blink during the incorporation. Wait until the STATUS LED is the only LED to blink.

If Studio can not establish communication with the Master, wait a few seconds and click the Retry button.

11.Use Ctrl+S to save your existing NetLinx Project with the new changes.

12.Right-click 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.
