INDeX Programming Connections
The INDeX supports programming connections through either serial ports or a
10/100 Base-T ethernet port connection.
Serial Connections
The INDeX supports programming via serial cable connections. This can be either
a direct serial cable connection or a modem serial connection.
Ethernet Port Connections
The INDeX has a 10/100 Base-T ethernet port. This can be used to connect the
INDeX to a LAN or directly to a PC network card for programming access.
IP Office Programming Connections
The IP Office supports programming through any one of it's 10/100 Base-T hub
port connections. The tools required for programming of a newly installed IP Office
system are:
PC running Windows 98, NT, 2000, XP or ME (see page 6).
–
–
PC with a LAN (NIC) card with either a fixed IP address (allocated by your
system administrator) or by using DHCP to obtain an IP address.
–
IP Office Cat. 5E patch cable (red – supplied with system see page 55).
–
IP Office Administration CD (supplied with system).
–
IP Office Manager Application Manual (supplied on CD with system).
–
IP Office Feature Key (where software that requires a Licence Key is to be
installed).
Note: Once installed, the software level of all software fitted to the IP Office
PC to IP Office LAN Port Connection
An IP Office system, when first powered up, will scan the LAN for a DHCP server
that will allocate it with an IP address. If the IP Office system does not find a
DHCP server then it will automatically become a DHCP server itself with an IP
address of 192.168.42.1. The IP Office system will allocate an IP address to the
PC if required. Initially, the IP Office system assumes that all addresses are on the
local LAN and that the PC software supplied uses broadcast to establish
communication with the IP Office system.
The IP Office hub port can be connected in two ways; either directly to a PC or as
part of a LAN. Both methods use an IP Office Cat. 5E patch cable (see page 55)
connected between one of the LAN hub ports on the front of the IP Office base
unit and the PC.

system can be identified. With Manager running, use
File/Advanced/Upgrade to display menu. Refer to the Manager Application
Manual for details of system configuration, software upgrade, etc.
Direct Connection:
This method is used for local system programming directly from a PC.
LAN Network Connection:
This is the option to use for remote programming access. It will require
liaison with the LAN network manager to obtain the IP address details and
to ensure that the IP traffic routing is allowed. When connected to an IP
LAN network, you must consult with the Network Manager to obtain the
required IP settings. For IP operation the IP Office requires a static IP
address including a subnet mask and default gateway value
