Operation

Network: The options in the Network menu allow you to configure the network communication features.

IP Configuration: Select IP Configuration from the Network menu to either set the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway of the DHD Controller manually or obtain these settings automatically, from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. (Most broadband routers and gateways support DHCP.) You can also test the network connection from this menu.

DHCP: To enable the DHCP client in the DHD Controller, select DHCP from the IP Configuration menu and set it to On. With this setting, the DHD Controller’s IP address, subnet mask and default gateway are assigned by the local DHCP server.

To manually configure these values, set DHCP to Off.

The IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway items in the IP Note Configuration menu are disabled (grayed out) when DHCP is

enabled.

IP Address: Select IP Address from the IP Configuration menu to manually configure the IP Address of the DHD Controller, as follows:

1.Press or to select the first, second, third or fourth byte of the address.

2.Press or to set the value of that byte. The range is from 0 to 255 inclusive.

3.Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for all four bytes of the address.

4.Press MENU when you have finished setting the address.

Subnet Mask: Select Subnet Mask from the IP Configuration menu to manually configure the IP subnet mask. The procedure is similar to that for setting the IP address.

Default Gateway: Select Default Gateway from the IP Configuration menu to manually configure the default IP gateway. The procedure is similar to that for setting the IP address.

Communication Test: Select Communication Test from the IP Configuration menu to verify proper operation of the network communication link.

To start the test, select Start Test from the Communication Test menu. The DHD Controller displays the message “Performing Communication Test.” When the test completes, the DHD Controller displays either “Failed” (along with the error that occurred) or “Succeeded.”

Auto Firmware Upgrade: Select Auto Firmware Upgrade from the Network menu to enable automatic detection of a newer version of the DHD Controller firmware. If one is found, you can configure the DHD Controller to install it automatically. These features make it easier to keep your DHD Controller firmware up-to-date.

Auto Check For New Firmware: To have the DHD Controller automatically check for firmware updates at periodic intervals, select Auto Check for New Firmware from the Auto Firmware Upgrade menu and set it to On. If you prefer to do this manually, set it to Off and use the Check For New Firmware sub-menu (described below).

Auto Perform Upgrade: If the “Auto Check For New Firmware” process determines that a newer firmware version than the one currently installed is available, you can have the DHD Controller automatically download and install it. To do this, select Auto Perform Upgrade from the Auto Firmware Upgrade menu and set it to On. The upgrade will occur the next time the DHD Controller is “power-cycled” (powered off, then on again).
