    3. The main window of Device Installer appears.It finds SI-60F/SI-60/SI-65 connected to the network automatically and lists in a table on the main window. (If there are devices other than SI-60F/SI-60/SI-65 using XPort on the network, they are also listed in a table..)

  • Page 22: Assign Ip Address

    * We recommend you to disable DHCP and BOOTP or always keep Auto-IP effective because when failing in the address assignment, Device Installer cannot detect SI-60F/SI-60/SI-65 even if DHCP, BOOTP or both are effective. 4. XPort restart by pressing "Assign" button on the "Assignment" page.
