10 .4 Connect to a Summit
There are two different ways to connect to a Summit:
• Using the connect button
• Using the download button
Since both functions are the same we describe only the first.
When the connect button is selected, the software, will open a discovering window where it
will search all Summits connected to USB and/or Ethernet. When have been found they will be
displayed similar to:
Figure 116 Connection list
For the Ethernet ports, the IP address is shown to identify the different Summits.
It is possible that the Configurator version is not compatible to the Summit firmware version. In
that case the remark “(Unable to connect)” is added. To be able to connect anyway, update the
configurator software to a newer version.

blocked by Ethernet equipment, such as routers. It is then possible to add an IP address manu-
ally. For this, right click in the menu and select “new Ethernet” to have the manual connection
