unit. In this case, you will use its factory-assigned IP ad-
dress to access the unit for configuration with your web
browser. You may change the standalone PowerStation
AUX IP address to match your IP scheme.
Factory default IP address is 192.168.2.50.
Multiple PowerStations? If you are configur-
ing multiple units, we strongly recommend that
you proceed by connecting only one system at a
time. That way you will not have IP conflicts and
any PowerStation AUX units will automatically
be paired with the correct PowerStation MAIN.
If your system employs an Ethernet core switch, it
must have an IP address that is lower than any PowerSta-
tion units. This function of the IGMP standard ensures
that the multicast querier is handled by the core switch if
one exists and passed off transparently to another switch
should the core switch fail or be disconnected.
Note: "Gateway" settings on PowerStation
equipment are required. The Gateway may be
used by PowerStation during IP address setup.
A valid Gateway also enables access the Pow-
erStation's configuration utility remotely, from
outside your network and the use of an external
NTP server. Enter the IP address of your master
router (the one with external network connec-
tions) whenever you're given the option to enter
a gateway IP address.
Note: Element v2.x software supports redun-
dant NTP servers. Use the second field in the IP
Address Book to enter the address of a backup
server.

enter the IP Address Book (Figure 2-14).
To set the IP address, rotate the left-most SoftKnob
to highlight the line titled "Element IP Address" and
push the knob to select that line. Now use the numeric
pad to enter the IP address. Press the leftmost SoftKey
again to "take" the new IP value. Repeat this process to
set the subnet mask value.
Continue down the screen and, in the same way, enter
the other fields' values as appropriate.
