Configuring Communication

Overview

Communication between the Modero panel and the Master consists of using either ETHERNET (DHCP,
Static IP) or ICSNet. Ethernet communication can be achieved through either a direct connection or through
the use of the optional NXA-WC80211b wireless interface card.
If you are currently using a Static IP Address, continue with the IP Settings section -
Configuring a Static IP Address over Ethernet section on page 59.
Before commencing, verify you are using the latest NetLinx Master firmware.
Verify the NetLinx Studio program being used is Version 2.4 or higher.
