TDK-Lambda Genesys GEN 3300W - Power-up the LAN Power Supply; IP Addresses

4.3. Power-up the LAN Power Supply
The Genesys™ power supply LAN option will automatically detect if it is connected or disconnected from
a network. It will also automatically look for a network server and it will get or create an IP address. It will
also broadcast its IP address and hostname to all other devices on the network.
1. Before turning the power supply ON, verify it is set to enable LAN. See the switch setting in section 3.3.1
2. Turn ON the power supply AC power. See the front panel show “Lan” for about 3 seconds. After that,
the supply will show “OFF” or the last output settings
3. The LAN cable may be connected before or after the supply is switched on
4. For a server network, wait about 15 seconds.
See the rear panel LAN Status LED turns green.
5. For a peer-to-peer network, wait about 40 seconds.
See the rear panel LAN Status LED turns green.
The computer screen may show a LAN notification bubble, “This connection has limited or no connectivity.”
When the LAN Status LED turns green, the power supply IP address will change from all zeroes to a valid
address.
It can be viewed on the front panel (see section 5.1).
If the LAN Status LED does not turn green, see section 15 for troubleshooting steps.
4.4. IP Addresses
The simplest and most reliable way to open a network connection is with the power supply’s IP address.
This is a group of four numbers separated by periods (for example:
10.1.15.123).
This IP address may be viewed from it’s front panel (see section 5.1)
There are three modes which the power supply can get an IP address, as show in this table:
IP Address DHCP Auto-IP Static IP
Mode Select DHCP is default after “LAN
Reset”
Default after “LAN Reset”
if no DHCP server is used
May be set in the “LAN
Modify” web page (see
6.6.2) or by setting the
IP-4 address on the front
panel (see 5.2)
