2.7.5 Connecting the Controller to your Local Area Network (LAN) when the System IS
Equipped with an IB4 Board
NOTE!
Your system may be furnished with an IB4 board. The IB4 board provides a second Ethernet port. The Ethernet port
located on the NCU Controller's front panel can ONLY be used to connect a computer directly to the NCU. The Ethernet port
located on the IB4 board can be used to connect the NCU to your Local Area Network (LAN). Refer to your system's
documentation for location of the IB4 board (if furnished).
NOTE!
If your system has an IB4 board, DO NOT connect your Local Area Network (LAN) to the NCU front Ethernet port.
Some systems may have an IB4 board with a second Ethernet port. This port supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
function. Refer to your system's documentation for location of the IB4 board (if furnished).
If your system has an IB4 board, connect the Local Area Network (LAN) to the IB4 board port. The IB4 board port can be assigned an
IP address or can be set for DHCP. If it is set for DHCP, it will get its IP address from a DHCP server on the network. Refer to "Setting
IPv4 Communications Parameters (if controller not set as DHCP)" on page 20 or "Setting IPv6 Communications Parameters (if
controller not set as DHCPv6)" on page 21 to set the port parameters;
or,
"Setting for DHCP and DHCPv6" on page 21 to set the port as DHCP or DHCPv6.

Procedure
1. Before connecting your computer directly to the controller's Ethernet port, use the following procedure to record your
computer's network settings (so they can be returned to these values when done) and then change these settings in your
computer to match the communications settings programmed in the controller.
NOTE!
Windows 7 operating system is used in this procedure, other operating systems are similar.
a) Record your computer's network settings by launching Control Panel in your computer. Navigate through Network and

following IP address" button is selected, also record the following:
IP Address:
Subnet Mask:
Default Gateway:
c) Record your controller's network settings by navigating the controller's local display panel to Main Menu / Settings Icon /
Comm Settings. Record the following controller's IP parameters. If these parameters were not changed, they should be
at the default values as shown in the example section below.
