What if you do not already know the IP address of the unit? All Acromag Ethernet devices include an alternate default mode of operation with a fixed IP address set to 128.1.1.100. Additionally, the user- programmable IP address that is used outside of default mode is also initially set to 128.1.1.100 from the factory.

Return: At this point, if the green RUN LED continues to blink after resetting and after restoring, then you may need to return the unit for repair. If you need additional help and you have already reviewed the material in this manual, please contact the factory. _______________________________________________________________________________________ Acromag, Inc.

PC or laptop with a NIC installed. In any case, you must set the address of your network interface card to an address within the default address domain of the Acromag unit. That is, an address from 128.1.1.0 to 128.1.1.255, except for 128.1.1.0 which is typically reserved for servers, and 128.1.1.100, which is the default address of the 993/4EN itself.
You can use an Ethernet switch or switching hub to build a network of CONNECTIONS Ethernet modules, similar to that shown below. This drawing shows how to network-connect these modules to a 5-port Ethernet switch (Acromag Model Network 900EN-S005). Note that the 900EN-S005 switch includes automatic...
