Follow these instructions to set up your smart switch.

Prepare to Install Your Smart Switch

Prepare a PC with an Ethernet adapter and a CD ROM drive.

Before proceeding with the smart switch installation, familiarize yourself with the contents of the Resource CD, especially the manuals.

First, Install the Smartwizard Discovery Utility on a PC

1.Power on your PC, let the operating system boot up completely, and log in as needed.

2.Insert the Resource CD for the Smart Switch Series into your CD-ROM drive. The CD main page shown below will load.

3.Click Install. Follow the links on the CD and the setup utility prompts to complete the installation of the Smartwizard Discovery utility.

4.Click OK when done.

Next, Connect Your Smart Switch in the Correct Order

Note: These instructions assume you are using DHCP in your network. If you are using static IP addressing in your network, configure the switch IP address before connecting it to your network. In the absence of a DHCP server, the switch will default to 192.168.0.239 for its IP address. To configure the switch before connecting it to your network, set up the PC with an IP address in the 192.168.0.x subnet, and connect the PC to the switch. Then, use the Smartwizard Discovery utility as illustrated below to configure the switch.

1. Connect the smart switch to your network.

Now, Configure the Switch with the Smartwizard Discovery Utility

1. Double click the Smartwizard Discovery icon on your desktop or in Windows Start menu Programs to run the utility and view this screen.

2. Click Discover to find your switch in the network.

The Smartwizard Discovery utility finds the switch and displays its MAC Address, IP Address, and model number. If you cannot configure your switch, verify that the cable connections are secure, that the IP address configuration of the PC is in the same subnet as the switch, and click the Discover button.

3.Click to select the line displaying the details of your switch. If there are multiple smart switches in your network, be sure to select the one you want to configure.
