using The ip ConfiguraTion Tool (ipConfig)
The IP address of the SR55 is set using the Anybus IPconfig utility available from:
http://support.automationdirect.com/downloads.html.
This section explains how to install the IPconfig utility and how to set the SR55’s IP address.
Unzip the file to a temporary folder and run the executable.
Follow the steps through the installation.
Once the installation is complete, run application from the folder that it was installed to
(usually the HMS folder in the Start menu). In Windows 8, from the home tile screen, simply
type in “ipconfig.” Typing any text on this screen will open the Search dialog. The program
IPconfig is the configuration tool from HMS.
If you use the Desktop most of the time in Windows 8, right click on this file and select “Pin to
Taskbar” to always have quick access to the file from the desktop.
The SR55 with the installed SR55-CM-ENETIP module needs to be installed on the same
network as the PC running the Ipconfig application.
The messaging uses broadcast and will not go through routers.
It is highly recommended to disconnect the PC from any network and have only the SR55 and
the PC connected via an Ethernet switch (not a router) or an Ethernet cross-over cable.
