Programming I4X settings using QDSP and Web browser
9.5.1
QDSP setting software
The QDSP setting software is used to program all iSTAT communicating Measurement
Devices and it can also be used to programme the IP address for the Ethernet interface of
an I4X.
The software is available free-of-charge from the GE Grid Solutions website.
The separate QDSP manual includes the details of how to install the QDSP software on a
PC and how to program the PC
’s Ethernet port to allow QDSP to interface to an external
Ethernet device and how to set an IP address in the I4X.
The IP address used for the PC in local mode and in the I4X will depend on the requirements
of the application and may be different from those used in the examples in the QDSP
manual.
9.5.2
Internet Browser
When the IP address has been confirmed in the I4X using QDSP it is now possible to
address the setting pages in the I4X over Ethernet using a web browser.
Open up the preferred web browser and enter the IP address of the I4X into the address line
(i.e. 192.168.0.55) and press <RETURN>. The web interface in the I4X will then be
displayed.
Fitted inside the I4X is a Lantronix device which implements the Ethernet to serial
conversion.
In the index on the left we are only interested in 2 options,
‘Serial Settings’ and ‘Connection’
and in these windows only a few adjustments are required.
