Setting the IP Address

Each GoMax NX unit and Gocator sensor on the sensor system network must have a unique IP address. By default, the IP addresses of the GoMax NX rightmost Ethernet port is set to 192.168.1.6.
To set the IP address of a GoMax NX unit, do the following:

Using an Ethernet cable, connect a computer to the ETH1 port on the GoMax NX unit.
On the computer, launch an Internet browser and navigate to 192.168.1.6.
The GoMax NX web interface is displayed.
In the Manage panel, click the Networking category.
The Networking category settings are displayed.
Under Interface 1, set the IP address and click Save.The GoMax NX unit power cycles after you confirm you want to change any IP addresses.
Changing network settings disconnects the GoMax unit and stops the acceleration of any accelerated sensors.
After the GoMax NX unit restarts, its IP addresses are changed.
Disconnect the laptop from the GoMax NX unit.

Mounting GoMax NX

LMI provides a DIN rail clip plate, a DIN rail clip, and M3 screws to mount GoMax NX on a DIN rail. The plate allows multiple orientations of the unit using different sets of standoffs. Attach the DIN rail clip plate to the back of the unit, and attach the DIN rail clip to the plate in the required orientation. LMI TECHNOLOGIES GoMax NX Smart Vision Accelerator - DIN rail
