Configuration; Automatic Configuration By Dhcp; Network Configuration By Gbl_Conf.exe - Gude Expert Power Control NET 24x Manual

3. Configuration

3.1 Automatic configuration by DHCP

After switch-on EPC NET 24x looks for a DHCP server and re-
quests an available IP address (for deactivation of that feature
see 2.2).
Please check the IP adress allocated to EPC NET 24x in the
DHCP server settings to make sure that the same address is
used at every reboot.

3.2 Network configuration by GBL_Conf.exe

For changing the network properties manually, the program
GBL_Conf.exe is required. This tool is available for free on our
website www.gude.info.
Furthermore GBL_Conf.exe enables you to install firmware
updates and to reset EPC NET 24x to its factory settings (see
5.2).
Activate bootloader mode of EPC NET 24x and run GBL_
Conf.exe (see 5.1). The program will look automatically for con-
nected devices and will display their network configuration.
If the displayed IP address accords with the factory settings
(192.168.0.2), there is either no DHCP server available in the
network or no free IP address could be allocated.
Enter a free IP address and the according netmask in the entry
mask, then save these changes by clicking on Program Device
SaveConfig.
g
Restart EPC NET 24x
by switching it off and on
again, so that the chang-
es will take effect. Now
click on Search in order
to have the new network
configuration displayed.
