pipeiQ FAAST ConneCTion TrouBleShooTinG
In order to connect to a FAAST device at its default IP address (192.168.1.10)
the PC network adapter must be configured to operate in the correct address
range. Below are the steps required to make a direct connection to a FAAST
device.

Take note of current adapter settings. They will be needed if you wish to re-
store your existing network connection later. To configure a direct connection
to a FAAST device choose:

• Use the following IP address

• IP address: 192.168.1.15

• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Select OK to close the dialog box. Select OK again to close the Connection
Properties window and apply the changes.

Type ping 192.168.1.10 and select OK. The ping application will attempt to
make contact with the FAAST device 4 times. The first or second request may
time out, but if a reply is received your network adapter is configured cor-
rectly. If a reply is not received check the Ethernet cable. Also verify that the
correct network adapter was configured and that it has the correct TCP/IP set-
tings described above. For more information see the networking white paper
at systemseensor.com/faast.
