4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network
Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the Coordinator’s default IP address to access it and assign a new IP address to it.
The Coordinator is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that is in the same range as the Coordinator’s IP address (192.168.1.x) and connect to the Coordinator using a crossover network cable between your PC and the Coordinator.
With this completed, you can go to the
Select Access Control , button, you’ll be asked for the password. You should be on the Access Control page were you can simply type in the desired Static IP address, and click Save.
For more details about the “Access Control” page refer to Section 4.3.9.

For the IP address to take effect, the Coordinator needs to be turned OFF and ON using the “Power Recycle” button. Pressing the physical button marked “RESET” on the Coordinator does the same thing.
You can now connect the Coordinator to an Ethernet hub using a straight through cable, power it up, and follow the ping routine mentioned in the previous section.
