via the default IP address, and a PC configured with the same subnet mask
(255.255.255.0)
using a DHCP-assigned address and a PC also connected to your network. For
more information, see "Zero Configuration Setup" on page34.
If your unit is connected directly to a PC via the USB connection or an Ethernet
port: VersaSync has a Command Line Interpreter ("CLI"). You will need a ter-
minal emulator program installed on the PC that will be used to configure Ver-
saSync in order to communicate. Follow the instructions below, or see "Setting up a
Terminal Emulator" on page271 for more detailed instructions and a list of CLI com-
mands. Using the serial CLI connection, you can set up access to the Web UI by set-
ting or identifying an IP address on your network. (See "Assigning a Static IP
Address" on page36).
Default settings:
VersaSync network settings default to static IP addresses. The Ethenet ports come pre-
configured with IP addresses as follows:
Eth0 - 192.168.1.1
Eth1 - 192.168.1.2
Default subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

If you are using a USB connection through the multi I/O connector, driver installation
may be necssary. On the PC connected to the unit, new hardware (the USB inter-
face) will be detected. The correct driver should be installed automatically. If not,
download the driver from www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm, and install it
manually via the instructions for your operating system.
