Initial IP Configuration
Initially the MCIP network interface is configured with the parameters shown:
PARAMETER VALUE
IP auto configuration DHCP
IP address 192.168.1.22
Netmask 255.255.255.0
Gateway None
IP access Disabled
If this initial configuration doesn’t meet your local requirements, you need to do the initial IP
configuration.
Use one of the following ways:
Connect the enclosed NULL modem cable to the serial interface on the MCIP rear side. The
serial interface needs to be adjusted with the parameters below:
PARAMETER VALUE
IP auto configuration DHCP
Bits/second 115200
Data bits 8
Parity No
Stop bits 1
Flow Control None
Use a terminal software (e.g. hyperterm or minicom) to connect to MCIP. Reset MCIP and
immediately press ESC. You will see some device information and an ‘ = ’ prompt. Enter the
command ‘config’ and press Enter. After waiting a few moments, configure IP auto
configuration, IP address, net mask and default gateway. Pressing Enter without entering values
does not change settings. The gateway value must be set to 0.0.0.0 (for no gateway) or any other
value. You will be asked if the values are correct and get a chance to correct them. After
confirming, MCIP performs a reset.
Use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect MCIP to your configuring computer back to back. Set
the IP address of this computer to 192.168.1.1 and use the web interface with the initial IP
configuration.
Web interface
MCIP may be accessed using a standard Web browser. You may use the HTTP protocol or a
secure encrypted connection via HTTPS. Just enter the configured IP address of MCIP into your
Web browser. Initially there is only one user configured who has unrestricted access to all MCIP
features:
Login name: super; Password MCIP
