6.0 IP Address Programming
Use this section to configure the DX4020 with a
network IP address. Use resident commands and
programs such as the ARP and ping commands, and
the telnet program available in the Microsoft
Windows
®
operating system.
The IP, MAC address, and port number
used in this document are for demonstration
only.
A working knowledge of DOS commands,
Windows, networks, and their operation is
required.
If your installation uses Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to obtain an
IP address and Port 7700 for
communication, refer to the associated
control panel documentation for instructions
unless you plan to use RPS over the
network through the DX4020. If using RPS,
proceed to Section 6.1 Factory-
Programmed IP Configuration.
6.1 Factory-Programmed IP
Configuration
The DX4020 is shipped with the following default IP
settings:
• Default IP Configuration Number: DHCP
• Default Port: 7700
• Default DHCP Device Name: Cxxxxxx
xxxxxx = last six digits of the MAC address
6.2 Identifying the MAC Hardware
Address
The MAC address is hard-coded into the DX4020
during its manufacture and cannot be changed. This
address is six bytes (twelve digits) long.
The MAC address label is affixed to the XPort
connector (Figure 14).

6.3 Obtaining an IP Address
Give the network administrator the MAC address. He
or she assigns an IP address to your DX4020.
An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device
on a transmission control protocol/internet protocol
(TCP/IP) network. Networks using TCP/IP route
messages based on the destination’s IP address. The IP
address format is a 32-bit numeric address written as
four numbers separated by periods ranging from 0 to
255, such as 172.17.10.70. Within an isolated
network, you can assign IP addresses at random
providing each address is unique. To avoid duplicate
addresses, use registered IP addresses (Internet
Protocol addresses) when connecting a private network
to the Internet.
