SC300 Setup
The network administrator may assign a unique IP address to each SC300 to be connected to the
TCP/IP network.
Alternatively, use DHCP or Auto IP to automatically assign an IP address.
► To configure an SC300 for Ethernet communications from the keypad
• Go to Settings > Setup
• Enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address assigned by the network
administrator.
• If IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address are both left at 0.0.0.0, the SC300 will
automatically be assigned an IP address using DHCP or Auto IP.
• If required, set HTTP Access to Enabled for web browser access, or set HTTPS Access to
Enabled for secure web access.
► To configure an SC300 for Ethernet communications using USB
• Ensure DCTools is installed.
If DCTools is working correctly with the SC200, it should also work correctly with SC300.
• Connect using USB (see details on page 16).
• DCTools should open automatically and show the SC300 view. If not, open a new
connection in Connection Manager, and at Connect Using, select a new Comm port.
• Go to Configuration > Communications > Ethernet.
• Set IP Address Config, Subnet Mask Config and Gateway Address Config as assigned by the
network administrator.
• If IP Address Config, Subnet Mask Config and Gateway Address Config are all left at 0.0.0.0, and
AutoIP is set to Enabled, the SC300 will automatically be assigned an IP address using
DHCP or Auto IP.
• If required, under HTTP (Web), set HTTP Access to Enabled for unsecured web browser
access.
► To view the IP address using web
• Go to System > Interfaces > Ethernet Auto.
• This section shows the current IP address settings, whether they are set manually or by
DHCP / Auto IP.
► To manually change the IP settings using web
• Go to System > Interfaces > Ethernet.
• Set IP Address Config, Netmask Config , and Gateway Address Config as required.
