COMPUTER SETTINGS

NOTE: The commissioning computer, dedicated control server onsite, or third-party control system may require setting a static IP address. Be advised that some routers may present a Gateway discovery issue when the Multicast Discovery device is set to a static IP.
Coordinate with the Network Administrator for the appropriate network settings & requirements. Allowing dynamic IP addresses or setting MAC address reservations may resolve this issue.

If a static IP address is required, obtain the IP address from the network Administrator.

1. Connect a CAT-5e cable to the computer ethernet port and network switch on the same network as the PoE Gateway (or connect over Wi-Fi on the same network)

2. Go to the “Network Connections” of the “Control Panel”,

3. RIGHT-CLICK the appropriate network adapter

4. SELECT “Properties” from the drop-down menu

5. SELECT “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)”, SELECT Properties
   

6. SELECT the “Use the following IP address” radio button

7. ENTER the addresses provided by the Network
   Administrator into the corresponding fields, SELECT “OK” on both open Properties windows

8. Upon completion of PoE Gateway commissioning and testing, repeat Step 4 to revert to previous settings
   • SELECT the “Obtain an IP address automatically” radio button
   • SELECT “OK” on both open Properties windows
   

Computer Settings are now set for discovering PoE Gateways
