2.2.2 Network Connection

Connect the Ethernet port to a 10 Base T or 10/100 Base T Ethernet connection. This typically connects to
an Ethernet hub, switch, or router. For configuration, WebRelay-Quad
Ethernet port on a computer using a "crossover" cable. Otherwise for connection through a hub or router, a
standard "straight-thru" cable should be used.

2.2.3 Relay Connection

The relay contacts internally connect directly to the 14-pin connector. No internal fuse is provided. The
relay contacts are rated at 1 Amp max (28V max). For larger loads, an external relay may be used to control
the load.

2.3 Establishing Communications for Setup

WebRelay-Quad is set up using a web browser. The first task is to establish communications between a computer
TM
and the WebRelay-Quad
TM
WebRelay-Quad must be physically connected to the same network and both must have IP addresses on the same
TM
network. There are two ways to set up the computer and WebRelay-Quad
The first way (Option 1), is to change the IP address of WebRelay-Quad
as the computer. The second way (Option 2) is to change the IP address of the computer to an address that is on the
same network that WebRelay-Quad

2.3.1 Option 1: Assign a temporary IP address to WebRelay-Quad

This option is used to TEMPORARILY assign an IP address to WebRelay-Quad
change the IP address of the configuration computer. Note that WebRelay-Quad
address as long as power is maintained. Once power is lost and restored, WebRelay-Quad
address assigned in the setup page and not the temporary address assigned here. This means that once
communications are established, the desired IP address should be entered into the network setup page using
the browser.
To assign the temporary IP address...
1. Make sure WebRelay-Quad

arp -s {new IP address} {serial number of WebRelay-Quad
Note: IP address format is: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Serial number format is: ss-ss-ss-ss-ss-ss
For example, to set a WebRelay-Quad
to 10.10.10.40 the following command would be used.
arp -s 10.10.10.40 00-0c-c8-01-00-01
ping -l 102 {new IP address}
For example, if the new IP address is 10.10.10.40, the following command would be
used.
ping -l 102 10.10.10.40
