FMA-LG101 Ethernet Connection/Network Options

(see also Ethernet connection information on previous page, as necessary)
• The FMA-LG101 can operate as a DHCP client if a network DHCP server assigns it a valid IP address
for that network. Otherwise, the FMA-LG101 uses its factory default IP address. In order to operate as a
DHCP client, the FMA-LG101 must be connected via a straight-through Ethernet cable to a network with
a DHCP server before power is applied.
• If there is no DHCP server, or if the FMA-LG101 is con
nected directly to a PC via an Ethernet crossover
cable, the
FMA-LG101 will default to its factory IP address and subnet mask of 10.20.1.120 / 255.255.2
48.0.
When the FMA-LG101 is using its default IP address, the conguring PC must be on the same subnet
as the
FMA-LG101. For example, the PC's network connection settings
can be set as 10.20.1.90 / 255.255.248.0.

PC Network Connections

If the FMA-LG101 is connected to the
network (i.e., the FMA-LG101 is a DHCP client), consult the network
administrator for proper network
settings. Set the PC’s network connections to provide access to the network,
and then proceed to configure the FMA-LG101.
If you are using a direct Ethernet connection between the FMA-LG101 and the configuring PC, you must
complete the following procedure to set the PC network connections before you proceed to configure the
FMA-LG101.
1. On the PC, navigate to Network Connections options, as applicable, per your operating system, e.g.,
Windows XP, Windows 7, etc. Refer to IT personnel or Windows documentation for further information.
2. Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon in the Network Connections window, and select
Properties.
3. Double-click on Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the Local Area Connection Properties window.
4. In the Internet Protocol Properties window, select the Use the following IP address: radio button.
Then:
• In the IP Address eld, type an IP address from the following range: 10.20.1.81 to 10.20.1.92.
• In the Subnet Mask eld, type 255.255.248.0.
5. Click OK to close the Internet Protocol Properties window. (You can also close any additional network
connections windows at this time.)
