Configuration Chapter 2

• Settings:

The “auto-sensing” feature is initially enabled to simplify the

configuration process. Auto-sensing can be disabled, in which case
selection must be made either to always use DHCP or to use static settings.
– DHCP Configuration

Select “Obtain an IP address automatically” to use automatic
configuration via a DHCP server. To override the DHCP server-
assigned DNS addresses, select “Use the following DNS server
addresses”.

– Manual (Static) Configuration

Select “Use the following IP address” to configure with static settings.
Update the IP Address, subnet mask, default gateway, preferred DNS
server and alternate DNS server with the values provided by your IT
department or System Administrator.

Click the “Restart Ethernet” button to use the new Ethernet settings. If the IP
address has changed, update the IP address in the browser’s address bar to
reconnect to the i-Sense.

Management: Reset to Factory Defaults

Press both RESET and

push-buttons (located beneath left-side cover)for 10

seconds to reset the networking and security username and password to the
default values. Both LEDs (green and red) will blink rapidly for 2 seconds when
the settings are reset. The Ethernet interface will be restarted after a few seconds.

Telephone Modem Communications Setup

If the modem is the desired method of i-Grid communication, this option must
be selected and configured appropriately. First, connect to the i-Sense
Management Console (

page 9

). The modem configuration values can be found

on the “Modem” page. The Ethernet port must be used to access the i-Sense
Management Console where the modem settings can be configured.

Required Modem Configuration Settings

The following configuration information must be entered:

• Country

Select your country from the drop-down list of supported countries. Please
contact your local Rockwell Automation Sales office or Allen-Bradley
distributor if your country is not present.

• i-Grid Communication Method

Select the “Modem” in the drop down list.

• Phone Numbers

Enter the phone numbers needed to contact the ISP (Internet Service
Provider). Unless an alternate ISP is used, look up available local phone
numbers on the i-Grid phone number lookup page.
