3.2 Setting up a Sensor (Standard Configuration)

This section describes the basic setup of a sensor in a standard configuration. It focuses on the temperature sensor; however, this basic setup process applies to all compatible sensors. If you require information on specific functions of a particular sensor, then download the manual for that sensor from our Web site or locate it on your product CD.

1.Plug the sensor into one of the RJ-45 “intelligent sensor ports” on the rear panel of the unit. In this example, we will use Port 1. See Figure 3-5.

Figure 3-5. Plug the temperature sensor into Port 1.

2.Enter the IP address of the unit (default, 192.168.0.100) into your browser.

3.Log in as the administrator using your administrator password (the default is “public”). The Summary page will appear as shown in Figure 3-6.

The temperature sensor should be listed, along with its current reading and status.
