ABB XIO-08 User Manual page 48

IMPORTANT NOTE: The factory default device name is a unique name specific to each XIO. While
the name is user-configurable, it is recommended to leave the default to ensure that the name is
always unique. The device name is the same as the Network ID (displayed in the Services tab).
When the XIO wireless interface is enabled (for example, in the role of a Wi-Fi access point), it
broadcasts this name. Wireless clients detect this name as the network available for connection. If
the name is not unique and there are multiple XIOs in the field, wireless clients have no way to
determine if they are connecting to the desired XIO. Changing the device name from the Networking
tab automatically updates the Network ID in the Services tab.
Select the State checkbox to enable the Ethernet ports.
Configure IP parameters:
i. Select Enable DHCP for automatic addressing if there is DHCP Service
available in the network, or
ii. Type each of the parameters for static addressing into IP Address, Default
Gateway, and Subnet Mask. (This is recommended, since static addresses
remain even if connection to the corporate network or local router is lost).
