When you change data on the Monitor Device page or access other web pages, you are prompted to en-
ter a Network Security user name and password. The factory defaults are:

user name - new

password - user

7.

Once you enter the user name and password you can access the other controller pages. If you browse
another address or close your browser, you will be required to enter this information again.

8.

To change security level passwords, go to Device Configuration > Network > Security.

9.

To configure the Series PD, go to Device Configuration and set up the unit.

Note: The controller leaves the factory with all inputs, outputs and control loops set to off.

Go through each Device Configuration page and make the appropriate selections for your application.
Click the Submit button at the bottom of each page.

Note: Be sure to click the Submit button at the bottom of any Device Configuration screen to send your changes to
the controller. Changes are not entered into the controller until you submit them.

9.

Select the Monitor Device page. The process values and set points are displayed. You can change con-
troller set point and the mode of operation, auto or manual. Select the parameter value you want to
change by clicking on it, enter the new parameter value and click the Submit button. This sends the
Series PD the new value and refreshes the Monitor Device page.

Note: Information on the Monitor Device page, including alarms and errors, is automatically refreshed once per sec-
ond, if your browser supports Java Virtual Machine and is enabled to allow Java applets to run.

Network Services

The Series PD supports DHCP client, Auto IP, and Static IP for address assignment. Normally you

will not need to make any changes. The user is able to configure preferences as to which services are used
if available. Intelligence is employed within the Series PD to revert to backup IP assignment methods if
the primary method is unavailable. It will try DHCP first, then Auto IP to assign an IP address. This is
the same method that a Windows based computer uses to get an IP address.

When using Auto IP, the Series PD starts with the IP address 169.254.10.10. If this address is already

in use, it will randomly attempt other addresses in the 169.254.XX.XX subnet. As with any IP networking
device, the IP address assigned to the Series PD must be compatible with the network it is physically con-
nected to.

Note: If you are using Auto IP, it may take several minutes for both the Series PD and your computer to get their IP
addresses.

The Series PD does support DNS client and Netbios name resolution. Configuration information may

be entered at the Network Display Setup page.

Note: If you forget the fixed IP address of your Series PD, short the jumper connections on the top of the unit (see page 5), turn
the input power off and back on again. This causes the Series PD to use DHCP first, AutoIP and finally fixed IP addressing to try
assigning an IP address. This allows you to read the current fixed IP address. Once the unit is powered up without the jumper
connections shorted, the Series PD returns to using the previous IP addressing settings.
