Once the correct value is set as the channel count, click on the 'Save' button to store that value permanently in
the AI-512 configuration.

Network Settings – Advanced Features ONLY

By default, the AI-512 uses an Ethernet connection to a PC only for programming. If the AI-512 is licensed
for Advanced Features, you have the option of viewing and controlling the AI-512 over a local network.

Using the drop-down in the Network Settings box, you can set the AI-512 to be compatible with your existing
network. Default settings are only appropriate for stand-alone use.

If the 'static' Mode is chosen, the settings box changes to show more options:

If you are unsure how to configure the AI-512 for use on your network, contact your network administrator.

Resetting to Default Network values

If the AI-512 is accidentally set to an incorrect IP address, you may not be able to re-connect to the unit for
programming! If this happens, there is a way to reset the AI-512 to default network values. The default
settings are meant only for connection to a single computer for programming. DO NOT reset the AI to default
values if it is wired into a LAN. Disconnect the AI from the network before resetting the values.

To reset the AI-512 to Default network values:

1) Turn off the AI-512 with the front panel power switch. Press and hold the black power button for

about four seconds, until the green power LED turns off.

2) With a laptop or desktop computer, create a text file on a USB flash memory stick. The file must be

in the root directory, not in any folder. Name the file network.lck. The content of the file is not
relevant.

3) Turn the AI on using the power switch. Once the green LED is lighted, wait about three minutes for

the AI to completely boot.

4) Connect your computer using a crossover cable, turn on the computer, and connect as usual. The

default hardware address will be active; 10.10.10.10

5) You must now check and correct the network options. Resetting to defaults is temporary, and the last

configuration will be used the next time the AI is reset.
