Chapter 4 - Configuration

4.1 First time Configuration

The WI-I/O 9-U2 has a built-in web server, containing web pages for analysing and
minor modification to t

he module’s configuration. The configuration can be accessed

using any web browser however we recommend using Microsoft

®

Internet Explorer 8.

4.1.1 Default IP Address

The default factory IP Address of the WI-I/O 9-U2 is 192.168.0.1XX, where XX is the
last two digits of the serial number (the default

“Setup IP address” is shown on the

printed label on the side of the module)

Netmask 255.255.255.0

Username is “user” and the default password is “user”

The WI-I/O 9-U2 will temporarily load some factory-default settings if
powered up with the #6 dipswitch under the side configuration panel
switched on. When in SETUP mode, wireless operation is disabled. The
previous configuration remains stored in non-volatile memory and will
only change if a configuration parameter is modified and the change saved.

Do not forget to set the switch back to the OFF position and re-cycle the
power at the conclusion of the configuration for normal operation
otherwise, it will continue to boot into the default IP address.

4.1.2 Changing PC Network Settings

The Default IP address is in the range 192.168.0.XXX and so will require a PC on this
network or be able to change the network settings to access the module configuration.

The following is the procedure for changing A PC network settings.

Y

ou will need a “straight-through” Ethernet cable between the PC Ethernet port and the

WI-I/O 9-U2. The factory default Ethernet address for the WI-I/O 9-U2 is 192.168.0.1XX
where XX are the last two digits of the serial number (check the label on the back of the
module).

Connect the Ethernet cable between unit and the PC configuring the module.

Open the side configuration panel and set the #6 Dipswitch to ON.

With this switch on the WI-I/O 9-U2 will always start with the Ethernet IP address
192.168.0.1XX, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, Gateway IP 192.168.0.1 and the radio IP
address 192.168.2.1. Do not forget to set the switch back to the OFF position and
restart the module at the conclusion of configuration.
