Installing DeviceInstaller
To install DeviceInstaller:
1. Download the latest version of DeviceInstaller from
http://www.lantronix.com/support/downloads
.
2. Run the executable to start the installation process.
3. Respond to the installation wizard prompts. (If prompted to select an
installation type, select Typical).
Assigning an IP Address
The unit’s IP address must be configured before it can work correctly on a
network. The unit’s IP address is normally set to 0.0.0.0 at the factory. The
hardware address is on the product label. The unit is DHCP enabled as the
default.
To assign an IP address manually:
1. Click StartPrograms  LantronixDeviceInstaller 4.4
DeviceInstaller. If your PC has more than one network adapter, a
message displays. Select an adapter and click OK.
Note: If the unit already has an IP address (e.g., DHCP has assigned
an IP address), click the Search icon
and select the unit from the
list of Lantronix device servers on the local network.
2. Click the Assign IP icon
.
3. If prompted, enter the hardware address (on the product label) and click
Next.
4. Select Assign a specific IP address and click Next.
5. Enter the IP address. The Subnet mask displays automatically based on the
IP address; if desired, you may change it. On a local network, you can leave
the Default gateway blank (all zeros). Click Next.
