Configuration
The AN-X4-AB-DHRIO (DH+) module connects a computer or other device on Ethernet to a Data
Highway Plus network.
Before you can use the AN-X4-AB-DHRIO (DH+), you must configure its network properties, on
Ethernet and on Data Highway Plus.
Initial Ethernet Configuration
AN-X can be configured:
to use a static (unchanging) IP address
to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server
to use the factory default setting, where AN-X waits for 10 seconds for a DHCP server to assign
it an IP address. If it does not obtain an IP address within 10 seconds, it reverts to a static address
of 192.168.0.246.
AN-X4 modules are shipped with the factory default setting.
Unless you have control of the DHCP server, in most applications you will assign the AN-X a static
IP address. Otherwise the DHCP server may assign a different IP address each time AN-X powers
up, and any software that accesses the AN-X module would have to be reconfigured.
If you are using multiple AN-X modules, connect and configure them one at a time.
IMPORTANT!
If you are connecting AN-X to an existing Ethernet network, consult the
network administrator to obtain information about how you should configure
AN-X or to obtain a static IP address for AN-X.
You configure the Ethernet properties either by:
using the web interface
editing files on the microSD card
To use the web interface, you must know the IP address of the AN-X, either the address assigned by
the DHCP server or the default address of 192.168.0.246
Enter the IP address in the address bar of your browser.
Select Administration/AN-X IP Configuration. The AN-X IP Configuration page appears.
