3. Also on the computer, set the Subnet mask to 255.0.0.0 (most PCs default to
the proper netmask when the address is set—so you may not have to do
anything here).
4. Run a browser on the computer and type “10.65.74.65” (the Default factory IP
address). You should now see the FS1’s browser status screen.
Test the FS1 Network Connection with “Ping”
After setting the IP address and other TCP/IP settings and connecting the FS1’s
Ethernet connection to a LAN or directly to a computer, ensure that you have a valid
connection by “Pinging” the FS1. Pinging ensures that other devices on the network,
or a computer directly attached to it, can see it. Simply run the Ping utility from a
computer on the same LAN as the FS1, or one attached directly to the FS1. Here’s
how to Ping an FS1 from a Mac OSX computer or Windows PC:
Mac Ping
Procedure 1. Find the Applications Folder, and then find the Utilities Folder inside of the
Applications Folder.
2. Locate the “Terminal” utility application and double-click it.
3. On the FS1, go to parameter menu 50.2 and read the IP address.
4. At the Terminal prompt, enter the IP address noted in step 3. For example:
ping 192.168.0.2
5. If successful, the ping utility will respond that packets were sent, received and
how long it took. For example:
64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.590 ms
6. If unsuccessful, check the FS1 network settings and resolve the problem with
your IT administrator.
Windows PC Ping
Procedure 1. From the Start button, find and locate and select the All Programs menu.
2. From the All Programs list, select Accessories, and then from that list, select
Command Prompt.
3. On the FS1, go to parameter menu 50.2 and read the IP address.
4. From the Command Prompt utility’s prompt, enter the IP address noted in step
3. For example: ping 192.168.0.2
5. If successful, the ping utility will respond that packets were sent, received and
how long it took. For example:
64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.590 ms
6. If unsuccessful, check the FS1 network settings and resolve the problem with
your IT administrator.
Controlling the FS1 from a web-browser
To control the FS1 from a web-browser on a network attached computer, you must
enter the FS1 IP address as a URL in the browser. For example, if the FS1 IP address
were “90.0.6.31”, you would then type into the web browser: http://90.0.6.31. This
topic is explained in greater detail in Chapter 5: Browser Remote Control.
