is the device’s serial number (read-only)
The following default network parameters are programmable with InstaCal:
Identifier
Text that identifies the WEB Series device. This value is optional, and is not set by default. Up to 48
alpha-numeric characters can be entered.
DHCP
Enables configuration by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server. DHCP is a service
that automatically assigns IP addresses to clients supporting the protocol. If the connected network
has a DHCP server, an IP address is assigned to the device shortly after it is powered up and attached
to the network. InstaCal will display the IP address assigned to the device.
The default DHCP setting is
Enabled
. Disable this setting when the server is not DHCP-enabled, or
when entering a "static" IP address. Unless there is a reason to disable DHCP (such as the network
server is not DHCP-enabled), we recommend that you leave DHCP enabled.
IP
The Internet Protocol (IP) address that is stored on the device. Use this address when a DHCP server
is not available or when DHCP is disabled.
Subnet
The Subnet Mask stored on the device. The Subnet Mask is part of the IP address and denotes the
local Subnet. Use this address when a DHCP server is not available or when DHCP is disabled.
Gateway
The Gateway IP address stored on the device. Use this address when a DHCP server is not available
or when DHCP is disabled. A gateway is the IP address of the device that bridges subnets within a
network.
Server
Enables or disables the device's web page server. Enable this value to view the device's web page
with a browser. Disable access to the web page when you want to restrict access to the device to
InstaCal or the Universal Library API.
User Name
and
Password
:
The user name and password used to log in to a device session. Log in is required only when
changing configurable options on the device. Change default values with InstaCal.
A unique 64-bit physical (MAC) address is also assigned to the device. This address is set at the factory and is
not user-configurable.
Restoring factory default network settings
To restore network settings to factory default values, press and hold the device's
reset
button
for three seconds.
If InstaCal is open when default settings are restored, click the
Refresh Boards
button on the InstaCal tool bar
to reflect the changes.
