The Power Panel is delivered with Boot AR. This is an operating system with a limited range of functions but that
provides all functions necessary for an online connection between Automation Studio and the Power Panel.
In order to put the Power Panel into service, a full version of Automation Runtime must be transferred to the Power
Panel. The following options are available for this:
•
Transferring Automation Runtime over a network with a DHCP server
•
Transferring Automation Runtime over a network without a DHCP server
•
USB flash drive - remote install structure

Transferring Automation Runtime over a network without a DHCP server
► Connect the Power Panel to the Ethernet network.
► Switch on the Power Panel.
► Create a new project with the Power Panel in Automation Studio.
► In a network without a DHCP server, an IP address must be assigned to the Power Panel in order for an
online connection between Automation Studio and the Power Panel to be established:
– Menu option
Online / Settings
opens connection window "Online settings".
– The target system search is started in this window with menu option
View / Online settings /
Browse
.
– The list of target systems found also includes the Power Panel. Since an IP address has not yet
been assigned to the Power Panel, address 0.0.0.0 is displayed.
– Command
Set IP parameters
(Power Panel shortcut menu) opens the dialog box where all required
network configurations can be made temporarily (they should be identical to the settings defined
in the project).

administrator.

To ensure error-free functionality of the USB flash drive, the current consumption of the USB flash
drive must be less than the current-carrying capacity of the USB interface.
