5.4 Setting Up a Network Connection
Connecting the Network Cable
1. Use a network cable that has an RJ45 network connector on one side and a 4-
pin M12 plug on the other. Insert the M12 plug into the LAN socket on the sen-
sor.
2. The sensor is supplied with the IP address 192.168.002.003. To connect it
to a PC, set up an IP address on the PC where the first three segments are
identical to the sensor's IP address, e.g., 192.168.002.090. The last
segment must be different from the one in the sensor's IP address.
Resetting the IP Address
If you do not know the IP address of the sensor, you can reset the IP address to
the factory default setting.
1. Connect the sensor to the power supply.
The sensor powers up.
2. Wait until the LEDs flash.
3. Hold down buttons 1 and 2 on the back of the sensor simultaneously for
approx. two seconds.
The LED flash sequence changes.
The sensor powers up again and now uses the factory default IP address.
Note!
Network Cabling
Use a crossover network cable to connect the sensor directly to a computer. If you
are operating the sensor within a network, use a twisted-pair network cable.
Note!
Documenting the Network Configuration
If you change the sensor's IP address, make a note of this change so that you can
connect the sensor to a PC.
