Transpector XPR 3+ Operating Manual
2.4.1 Connecting a Single Transpector XPR 3+
2.4.1.1 Single Transpector XPR 3+ Direct Connection Installation
When installing a single Transpector XPR 3+ on a private network or directly
connected to a computer, changing the IP address of Transpector XPR 3+ is only
necessary if the computer being used to connect to Transpector XPR 3+ has a
different network prefix than Transpector XPR 3+.
The network prefix of Transpector XPR 3+ is 192.168.x.x. The IP address of the
host computer used to control Transpector XPR 3+ must have a subnet mask of
255.255.0.0 and a network prefix of 192.168.x.x.
If this is not the case, change the computer IP address to match the network prefix
of Transpector XPR 3+. For example, giving the computer an IP address of
192.168.1.101 will allow Transpector XPR 3+ to communicate directly with the
computer. Refer to section 2.3.1.2, Changing the Computer IP Address, on page
2-7.
2.4.1.2 Installing a Single Transpector XPR 3+ on an Existing Local Network
When installing a single Transpector XPR 3+ on an existing local network, the
default IP address of Transpector XPR 3+ may not be compatible with the network.
Transpector XPR 3+ can have either a Static IP address (recommended) or a
Dynamic IP address set by DHCP (not recommended).
Contact your network administrator for information regarding valid IP addresses
and have them assign an IP address for Transpector XPR 3+. See section 2.3.1,
Changing Transpector XPR 3+ IP Address, on page 2-3.
2.4.2 Installing Multiple Transpector XPR 3+ Sensors
Since each Transpector XPR 3+ is shipped with the same default IP address, the
IP address of each Transpector XPR 3+ must be changed one at a time so that
each sensor has a unique IP address. See section 2.3.1, Changing
Transpector XPR 3+ IP Address, on page 2-3.
CAUTION
Do not connect multiple Transpector XPR 3+ to a network
at the same time without first changing the IP addresses.
Since the IP addresses are not unique, connecting
multiple units at the same time will cause IP address
conflicts on the network.
