Configuring Communication

Step 3: Configuring the Ethernet Connection Type

When using Ethernet as your communication method, the NetLinx Master must first be setup with either a Static IP or DHCP Address obtained from either NetLinx Studio or your System Administrator.

Before beginning:

1.Verify the panel has been configured to communicate either through an Ethernet cable (connected from either the panel to a valid Ethernet Hub) or to a wirelessly to the Wireless Access Point (WAP).

Before commencing, verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master firmware.

2.Verify that the NetLinx Master is receiving power and is communicating via an Ethernet connection with the PC running NetLinx Studio.

3.Connect the terminal end of the 12 VDC-compliant power supply cable to the power connector on the rear/side of the touch panel.

4.Verify the green Ethernet LED (from the rear Ethernet port on the Master) is illuminated (indicating a proper connection).

5.Verify the yellow LED (from the rear Ethernet port on the Master) is blinking (indicating communication).

6.After the panel powers-up, press and hold the grey Front Setup Access button (for 3 seconds) to proceed to the Setup page.

7.Select Protected Setup > System Settings (located on the lower-left) to open the System Settings page (FIG. 63).
