Note: this port comes defaulted in the DHCP Client mode. If the site’s LAN network is setup properly
the controller will automatically obtain an IP address from the network while in the DHCP Client mode
and the controller can be simply accessed by typing in its correct IP address.
To access the system using the LAN as the Craft Port, follow the following basic procedures.
1
To use the Ethernet port locally as a Craft port the controller needs to be configured as a DHCP Server. First re-
move the controller from the shelf to place the controller into DHCP server mode. Locate the Port configuration
jumper portal
2
Place the controller in appropriate location and set jumper J25 into to the DHCP Server position which is the
“local” position. DHCP Server mode of operation is from pins 2 to pin 3. Connecting the controller to the intranet
J25 must be set to the Network (Client) position which is from pins 1 to pin 2. Network (Client) is the factory
default configuration. Use of an insulated tool to set the jumper is preferred.
3
Reinsert the controller back into system shelf. The controller must be rebooted when changing the mode of op-
eration of the network port. This is achieved through the reapplication of power. When this process is per-
formed the controller accepts the new Ethernet port configuration. The rebooting process takes approximately
2 minutes.
4
Attach the LAN cable between the controller’s LAN connection, RJ45 (J5), located at the rear of the shelf to the
appropriate Ethernet port on the Craft PC.
