an additional IP address could save time if a large number of frames are to be configured.
Additional IP addresses can be added via the ‘Advanced’ tab in Windows 7:

Alternatively, the LAN controller sub-mask can be extended to allow control of frames of similar
IP addresses. For instance, if a frame is to be finally configured as 10.0.1.0 then a sub-mask of
255.255.0.0 would allow control of the frame in its default and final configuration.
Setting Default IP address
For Indigo 2AE users, the frame’s current IP address is displayed on the integrated front control
panel but should a frame’s IP address be unknown, it is possible to temporarily set the frame to
its default IP address (10.0.0.201) by moving configuration switch 6 to down
.

CPU must now be reset in order for changes in the switch settings to be implemented. This can
be achieved by: either pressing the ‘reset’ button, briefly interrupting the power to the frame or
removing the ribbon-cable connection to the front panel. Care must be taken not to bend any pins
in the cable connect as attempting to re-straighten any bent pins will likely result in their fracture.
The frame will enter ‘Recovery Mode’ on reset or power up where it can be accessed by its
default IP address 10.0.0.201.The network address can now be permanently changed with a
browser.
Recovery Mode
On power up, Indigo 2AE/2SE will enter ‘Recovery Mode’ if it detects corrupt firmware,
or
if
configuration switch 6 is in the down position. When the frame is accessed by an internet
