Communication and Firmware Update

11.Select Tools > Reboot the Master Controller to access the Reboot the Master dialog, then click Continue to reboot the Master and incorporate any changes. Allow 20 - 30 seconds for the 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.

12.Click the OnLine Tree tab in the Workspace window to view the devices on the System. The default System value is one (1).

13.Right-click the Empty Device Tree/System entry and select Refresh System to establish a new connection to the System’s Master and refresh the list with online system devices. 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 2 thru 10.

14.Once the particular System Master is configured for communication via an IP Address, remove the RS232 connector from the Program port on the NetLinx Master.
