The SB72 comes preprogrammed and ready to run on your network. Before you can begin using the device, some basic configuration is required to tell the SB72 what type of serial interface you want to use, the network address you want the SB72 to respond to, the serial data baud rate, and the TCP/IP listening port number.

Key: X = don’t care, Open = No connection, Closed = Jumper pins Note for RS-232 Operation: The SB72 can run 2 channels without hardware handshaking. If RTS and CTS are required, then only Port 1 can be used. RTS and CTS are available at TTL levels on the J5 connector for both channels.
Run IPSetup.exe. You will see a dialog box like the one below: Select the "Find" button and locate the SB72 in the list box. If your SB72 does not appear in the list box, verify the power and link LED's are illuminated; if not, correct any cabling errors. Note that IPSetup uses a UDP broadcast protocol similar to BOOTP and will not operate through a router.
Once the network parameters have been configured you can use the web server interface to modify setting of the SB72. To access the web page on the SB72, open a web browser and enter the numeric IP Address in the address field.
TCP server will disconnect the current TCP/IP connection and allow the new incoming connection request to connect. Outgoing Connections If this option is enabled, the SB72 will initiate a connection to an outside destination when the selected conditions are met. Options are: Don't Initiate Connections •...

The following table and diagram show how to create a null modem cable/adapter for RS-232 connections. A null modem cable will be required if you are connecting the SB72 to a PC using the standard NetBurner 10-pin header to DB9 ribbon cable connector.
Card, don't change your Dial-Up Adapter settings) Set the IP address of the NetBurner board to 10.1.1.11 • Set the network mask for both the PC network adapter and the NetBurner board to 255.255.255.0 • Web Browsers and Proxy Servers If you are working on a corporate LAN that uses a proxy server for Internet web browsing, you will need to exclude the IP address of the NetBurner hardware in your web browser’s proxy server settings/preferences.
For a serial terminal you can use Hyper Terminal, or download MTTTY from the NetBurner web site. In the following examples an IP Address of 10.1.1.2 will be used for the SB72. Replace this number with your specific IP Address you assigned during configuration.
