4.0 –LAN NETWORK SETUP
The network connection allows transmission and reception of data via an IP address.
After the network has been configured, you can access the unit through any internet
browser on YOUR LAN NETWORK for firmware upgrading, adding/editing time
programming, playing sounds and more.
The default DBC 870 configuration is “DHCP CLIENT”. It automatically acquires the IP
address directly from the network. To view the I.P. address and network information,
enter
940
from the main display. The I.P. address can then be entered in the address
bar of your browser.
The DBC 870 can also be configured with a static I.P. address, default gateway, and
subnet mask. When using this function it is important that the settings are compatible
with your network.
The DBC 870 can act as a DHCP SERVER. This can be useful when a computer is
connected directly to it for programming. When using this setting simply connect the PC
and the DBC 870 with a crossover cable and boot/restart the computer. Press
940
from
the main display of the DBC 870 and enter the I.P. address in the address bar of your
browser. The following screen will display:
Once the connection has been established use password
7515
to gain access to manual
functions and scheduling options.
Note: When the machine is connected to a network the time will be automatically
updated. For this to work correctly the DBC 870 must be configured with the correct
Time Zone and correct DST (Daylight Saving Time) setting. The system will synchronize
with the NTP server to obtain the exact GMT/UTC time from every time it is turned on
and once a day at 12:00 AM.
