Configuring receiver IP
and serial parameters
Adapting the receiver to
your network
Thermo Fisher Scientific
The next step is to use your Web browser to connect directly to the network
receiver and then configure its basic parameters.
To configure the network receiver, you need to plug in the provided AC
adapter. Connect your network receiver either into the network directly
using a regular RJ-45 Ethernet cable or into your computer using a
cross-over cable. The receiver does not need to be placed in its final location
for this operation, but it does need to be on the same network.
With either connection method, the computer you are using to configure
the receiver needs to be on the same subnet as the receiver. (For example, if
the receiver IP address is 192.168.0.100, then your computer IP address
must be on the subnet 192.168.0.X.) You might need to change the IP
address of your computer.
Smart-Vue Network Receivers are delivered with a default IP address to
ensure that you can access them over the network. The default IP address is:
192.168.0.100.
The process described in this section requires knowing an available static IP
address and ensuring that the IP address is the same classification (class) as
192.168.0.x. Contact your system administrator for assistance.
To adapt the network receiver to your network, do the following:
1. Open your Internet browser (e.g., Internet Explorer).
2. Type 192.168.0.100 in the address bar, and then press Enter on your
keyboard. Click on OK if you are prompted to enter a login name
and password.
3. Be sure to take note of the name and password you provide; Since
there is no default password programmed into the receiver, you will
need your password to gain access via the XPort
