Configuration
Access to the Setup requires administrator rights.
The setup section is divided into seven sections, Device, Network, Email, SNMP, Inputs, Outputs, and
Remotes. Click on the buttons on the left to access that section.
Note: Click on Save at the bottom of each screen before moving to another section. Wait for
the page to reload prior to moving to another section.
Device Setup
Device setup allows definition of the
Location ID, displayed on the top header of
each page. The Auto Update feature
defines if the status of this device will be
automatically transmitted to the remote
sites, and if so, how often.
Also set on this page are the Login Names
and Passwords for the User and
Administrator roles.
There are two roles that can be defined.
The user has access only to the status and
control page. The Administrator also has access to the setup pages.
Network Setup
The iPIO-8 provides two methods for setting
the IP Address
1) Static
2) DHCP
Select Static Mode from the drop down list
and fill in the IP Address, Subnet Mask and
Gateway as provided by your network
administrator. Click save to save the
changes. You will then be prompted to
reboot the iPIO-8. Click on the Reboot
Required button. The iPIO-8 will reboot and
the new IP address will be ready to be
accessed.
Selecting DHCP from the IP Setup page
allows a DHCP server to provide IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway information to the iPIO-8.
Click Save and then Reboot when prompted. The iPIO-8 will reboot. After reboot, access the iPIO-8
with the IP address assigned by the DHCP server. Check your DHCP server to identify the IP address
assigned to the iPIO-8. If no IP address is assigned by a DHCP server, the original IP address will be
retained.
