Maintenance and Upgrades

7.1

Testing the Network Connection

You can use the ping command to check the connection between two IP addresses. This allows you to test whether a unit in the network is active.

1.Open the DOS command prompt.

2.Type ping followed by the IP address of the unit.

If the unit is found, the response appears as Reply from ... followed by the number of bytes sent and the transmission time in milliseconds. If not, the unit cannot be accessed over the network. This might be because:

The VIP X1600 XF is not correctly connected to the network. Check the cable connections in this case.

The module is not correctly integrated into the network. Check the IP address, subnet mask and gateway address.

7.2Unit Reset

You can use the Factory Reset button to restore a module to its original settings. Any changes to the settings are overwritten by the factory defaults. A reset may be necessary, for example, if the unit has invalid settings that prevent it from functioning as desired.

CAUTION!

!All configured settings will be discarded during a reset.

If necessary, back up the current configuration using the Download button on the Maintenance configuration page (see Section 5.43 Advanced Mode: Maintenance, page 84).

NOTICE!

i

After a reset, the module can only be addressed via the factory default IP address. The IP

 

 

address can be changed as described in the Installation chapter (see Section 4.4 Setup Using

 

the Configuration Manager, page 21).

 

 

1.If necessary, back up the current configuration using the Download button on the Maintenance configuration page (see Section 5.43 Advanced Mode: Maintenance, page 84).

2.Using a pointed object, press the Factory Reset button located below the orange terminal block until the module's LED on the front panel of the VIP X1600 XF flashes red. All module settings will revert to their defaults.

3.Change the IP address of the module if necessary.

4.Configure the module to meet your requirements.
