6. Operating
6.1 Initial configuration
All modules leave the factory with this control over Ethernet interface IP address: 192.168.1.10. In order to avoid conflicts
with other IP addresses, it is necessary to perform an initial configuration in the local mode. Subsequently, it will be possible
to access the module via local area network (LAN), either to change the configuration or to check the operating status.
The modules leave the factory with the following control over Ethernet interface TCP/IP configuration:
IP address of the module
:
192.168.1.10
Subnet mask
:
255.255.255.0
Default Gateway
:
192.168.1.1
To access each module, use a personal computer (PC) equipped with an Ethernet card and
RJ-45 cable (CAT-5E or CAT-6). The IP address of the PC/MAC must be configured within
the following range: 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254 (do not use 192.168.1.10, since this is the
IP address of the module to be configured). To start the configuration of the module, open
your web browser and type in the following direction: http://192.168.1.10. The login prompt
will appear on the screen (see Figure 6).

6.2 General configuration
Initial Web interface screen
The first screen that appears when the module accessed is the "Main" window, which gives general information on the
device.
Figure 7. General information screen
In the top of each configuration screen you will see a main menu tabs [1]. Using it, you can switch between the different
configuration menu. The tab highlighted in yellow shows which menu is active at a given moment. The "System menu" tab
