KIT-400 – Operating and Controlling KIT-400
Operating via Ethernet
You can connect to KIT-400T via Ethernet using either of the following methods:
• Directly to the PC using a crossover cable (see Connecting Ethernet Port Directly to a
PC on page 25).
• Via a network hub, switch, or router, using a straight-through cable (see Connecting
Ethernet Port via a Network Hub on page 27).
Note: If you want to connect via a router and your IT system is based on IPv6, speak to your
IT department for specific installation instructions.
Connecting Ethernet Port Directly to a PC
You can connect the Ethernet port of KIT-400 directly to the Ethernet port on your PC using a
crossover cable with RJ-45 connectors.
This type of connection is recommended for identifying KIT-400
with the factory configured default IP address.
After connecting KIT-400 to the Ethernet port, configure your PC as follows:
1. Click Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center.
2. Click Change Adapter Settings.
3. Highlight the network adapter you want to use to connect to the device and click Change
settings of this connection.
The Local Area Connection Properties window for the selected network adapter appears
as shown in Figure 12.

4. Highlight either Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) or Internet Protocol Version 4
(TCP/IPv4) depending on the requirements of your IT system.
