This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.

Overview

This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.

General Problems

Problem 1: Can't connect to the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 to configure it.

Solution 1: Check the following:

∙The ADE-4300/ADW-4300 is properly installed, LAN connections are OK, and it is powered ON.

∙Ensure that your PC and the ADE-4300/ADW-4300 are on the same network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)

∙If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP client), restart it.

∙If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP Address within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and thus compatible with the ADE-4300/ADW-4300's default IP Ad- dress of 192.168.0.1.

Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the ADE-4300/ADW-4300.

In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel-Networkto check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.

Internet Access

Problem 1: When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.

Solution 1: A number of things could be causing this. Try the following troubleshooting steps.

∙Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP settings are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the Network Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Address.

∙If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the ADE-4300/ADW-4300. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Con- nect to it and check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN and power connections.)

∙Check the ADE-4300/ADW-4300's status screen to see if it is working correctly.
