Accessing the 2080E-T’s Configuration Web Server

The default IP address of 2080E-T is 192.168.1.88 (subnet mask, 255.255.255.0). The default 
user name is “admin” and the default password is “password”. There are two methods for 
accessing the configuration for the first time.

Method 1: This method requires that you change your computer settings so that the configuring 
PC is on the same network as the 2080E-T with its factory default settings. This is the preferred 
method. You will need to connect a “straight-through” Ethernet cable between the PC Ethernet port 
and the 2080E-T.

Method 2: This method requires changing the IP address in the 2080E-T via an RS232 connection 
so that it is accessible on your network without having to change your PC network settings. When 
connected, you can change the network settings of the 2080E-T to match that of your network.

Method 1 - Set PC to Same Network as 2080E-T

1.  Connect the Ethernet cable between the 2080E-T and the PC.

2.  Power up the 2080E-T.

3.  On your PC, open “Network and Sharing Center” under Control Panel.

The following description is for Windows 7

®

. Earlier Windows operating systems have similar 

settings.

4.  Select Local Area Connection for the Ethernet connection used to connect to 2080E-T.

5.  Open “Properties” of Local Area Connection.

6.  Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click 

Properties 

(Figure 1).

7.  On the General tab (Figure 2), do the following:

a.  Select “Use the following IP address.” 

b.  Enter an IP address 192.168.1.XX, where “XX” is an IP address that will not conflict 

with any other device that may be connected on the same network (do not enter 
192.168.1.88; this is the IP address of the 2080E-T). 

c.  Enter the subnet mask 255.255.255.0, and click 

OK

.

8.  Open Internet Explorer

®

 and ensure that the settings will allow you to connect to the 

IP address selected. If the PC uses a proxy server, ensure that Internet Explorer will bypass 
the proxy server for local addresses.

The proxy server option may be modified by opening Tools -> Internet Options 
->Connections Tab ->LAN Settings->Proxy Server -> bypass proxy for local addresses.

9.  Enter the default IP address for the 2080E-T, http://192.168.1.88.
