VESDA-E VES-A00-P Product Guide
5.5.3 Ethernet Options
The Ethernet options provide the ability to configure the detector to join an existing wired Ethernet network
using the normal building network connection process or be directly connected to a PC or laptop.
The Ethernet configuration options are as follows:
Ethernet Enabled: Tick to enable Ethernet for use.
Dynamic IP Address Configuration
Automatically obtain IP Address: Controls whether the VES-A00-P uses a static IP address or
l
automatically obtains an address from a DHCP server available on the building network. If this option is
selected, the IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway fields are disabled. Once the IP address
has been successfully obtained by the detector, it is displayed on the detector detail status screen.
Static IP Address Configuration
IP Address: IPV4 static address. This address must be used when creating a connection profile for the
l
detector in Xtralis VSC.
The default IP address is 192.168.0.200. This allows direct connection between a PC or Laptop and
l
the VES-A00-P using a standard Ethernet cable.
Prior to connecting the detector to a router or other gateway device, the default address must be
l
changed to an address in the range used by the router. This can be done by connecting to the
detector using the USB port.
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask for the network.
l
Default Gateway: The IP address of the router or other gateway device that is servicing the network.
