Direct Connection to the XPS Controller
For a direct connection between a PC and the XPS controller you need to use the
crossover cable and the HOST or REMOTE connector at the back of the XPS.
Figure 14: Direct Connection to the XPS using cross-over cable.
First, the IP address on the PC's Ethernet card has to be set to match the default factory
XPS's IP address 192.168.0.254 for the HOST connector or 192.168.254.254 for the
REMOTE connector.
Following is the procedure to set the Ethernet card address.
This procedure is for the Windows XP operating system (almost similar process
forWindow 7):
1. Start Button > Control Panel > Network Connections (Network and Sharing Center
=> Change adapter settings).
2. Right Click on Local Area Connection Icon and select Properties.
3. Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP, TCP/IP4) and click on Properties.
4. In case using HOST connector type the IP address: 192.168.0.100 and Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.0.
In case using REMOTE connector type the IP address: 192.168.254.100 and Subnet
Mask: 255.255.255.0
