Software Installation Information

For the NPort's configuration, the default IP address of the NPort is:
LAN: Static; IP = 192.168.127.254; netmask = 255.255.255.0.
NOTE If you have forgotten the NPort's IP address, use the Device
Search Utility (DSU) from your PC to locate the NPort. After
searching the LAN for NPort units, the DSU will display the IP
address of each unit.
You may log in with the password moxa to change any setting to meet
your network topology (e.g., IP address) or serial device (e.g., serial
parameters). For first-time use, click the Wizard in the left navigation
panel. The wizard will prompt you to configure the IP address, SSID,
and security mode. For other settings, use the factory defaults or
modify the settings for your application.
