Under active routes, 10.10.10.10 should be seen. As an additional test, use the command ping 10.10.10.10 to verify the CS141 web
manager is responding as expected.
Note:
In configuration mode, only one CS141 with the default IP address of 10.10.10.10 can be operated.
If you connect several devices at the same time this way, a network conflict is unavoidable.
Using the DHCP Option
The DHCP mode
Since the models of the CS141 family can fulfill many functions due to their flexibility, it is a very realistic scenario that you need to
commission several devices at the same time within an installation procedure - Unfortunately there is no fixed IP address that can be
assigned for the moment.
To avoid a network conflict, activate the DHCP mode for automatic IP address assigning:
Slide the slide switch to the right, i.e. to the outer edge of the CS141. For the CS141 Mini, set dip switch 1 to OFF and move dip switch
2 to ON. Next reboot, the web manager will boot in DHCP mode according to the hardware configuration and obtain an IP address from
your network.
Required information for finding CS141 in DHCP-Mode
To identify the devices, please note the MAC address including location data before proceeding hardware installation.
The MAC address can be found on any CS141 web manager as a unique sticker:
Ensure a suitable DHCP server is available for this operating mode, otherwise the will not be able to get valid IP address data
automatically.
CS141 MINI and CS141 / R2
Due to the compact design, the lable sticker of CS141 MINI and the CS141 / R2 differ and shows only the last three octets of the MAC
address.
The MAC address of a GENEREX- network interface starts with these address values:
00-30-d6-xx-xx-xx
The last thre values can be found at the lable sticker on the back of the CS141 MINI or CS141 R2:
A common bar code scanner that can handle QR codes or a smartphone with a QR- Code app will display the complete MAC address.
