4.1 Connectiong PowerBOX
NETIO PowerBOX use the Ethernet connection (RJ45) to network.
Connect your NETIO device to a LAN with a network cable (RJ45).
Plug the input cable plug into the electrical socket.
Wait about 30 seconds until the device starts and address is provided from a DHCP server.
Note: It is mandatory to have DHCP server in the network for the first connection to LAN and Setup.
The IP can be switched to Static afterwards.
4.2 Detecting and configuring the IP address
If you have followed the instructions in the previous chapter, you know the NETIO device’s IP
address, whether it was assigned by a DHCP server or configured manually. If you forgot the IP
address, or if you have received a pre-configured device, you will need to find out its IP address.
Use Windows based NETIO Discover utility, available for download at http://www.netio-
products.com/en/software/netio-discover.
Figure 9 – NETIO Discover web interface
To successfully discover the IP address, the controlling system must be in the same LAN as the
NETIO device.
If the discovered IP address belongs to a different address range than that of your network, we
recommend resetting the device to factory defaults (see chapter Restoring factory defaults) and
then configuring it according to chapter Configuration and control.
