3.2 Setting up a Sensor (Standard Configuration)

This section describes the basic setup of a dry contact sensor in a standard configuration. It focuses on the dry contact 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 dry contact 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.Type 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.
