NETWORK SETUP
2
1. Plug in the power cord and connect the Plus-X VSWR to your network via the rear-panel Ethernet connector.
2. If your network supports DHCP functionality, a dynamic IP address will be assigned to the unit. If DCHP is not
supported on your network skip ahead to step 3 now. To access the unit, launch a web browser and enter the
hostname PLUSXVSWR/ in the browser's address field then skip to step 5. Be sure to include the forward-slash
symbol in the hostname.
3. If your network doesn't support DHCP, the Plus-X VSWR will assign itself the default IP address 192.168.0.100.
You will need to connect a PC with a web browser to the Plus-X VSWR at this IP address before you can change
the network settings on the unit. One way to do this is to unplug your PC from any other LAN and connect your
PC to the Plus-X VSWR via a network switch or a cross-over ethernet cable. Then configure your PC with a
compatible IP address so that you may connect to the Plus-X VSWR. Running Windows, the following steps will
allow you to configure your PC with a compatible IP address:
a. From the Control Panel, select Network Connections.
b. Double-click the icon for the network you will be using.
c. On the General tab, click Properties.
d. Click Internet Protocol version 4 "TCP/IPv4".
4. Open a browser and enter the Plus-X VSWR default IP address of 192.168.0.100.
5. The web page will prompt you to set a password for the administrator account.
6. The login screen will then be displayed. Enter the username admin and the password you supplied
above.
7. The first screen displayed after initial login is an abbreviated Network page requiring you to enter a
static IP address for the Plus-X VSWR. Check with your network administrator for an available IP address
that is not within the DHCP address range.
e. Select Properties.
f. Choose "Use the following IP address" and enter an IP address of
192.168.0.x, where x is any valid address location except 100.
g. Enter Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
h. Click OK.

8. Your browser will be automatically redirected to the new IP address.
If your initial connection was made without DHCP, your PC should now
be restored to its prior network settings and both the PC and the Plus-X
VSWR should be connected to the normal LAN.
9. Log in to the Plus-X VSWR at its new static IP address, go to the
Settings tab on the web page and select Network to change the
network information.
Add the following network information and select save to confirm the
changes.
a. NetBIOS/Hostname – This name should be changed from its default
value of PLUSXVSWR so conflicts will not occur if multiple Plus-X devices
of the same model are installed on the network.
b. IP Address – This field will display the static IP address you entered in
a previous step.
c. Subnet Mask – Check with your network administrator otherwise the
factory default setting can be used.
d. Gateway – Check with your network administrator otherwise the
factory default setting can be used. This port must match the setting
for Plus-X Port on your ARC Plus Touch or ARC Plus SL unit.
e. ARC Plus IP address – Enter the IP address of the ARC Plus Touch
or ARC Plus SL unit that the Plus-X VSWR will be connected to.
f. HTTP Port – Check with your network administrator. The factory
default setting is port 80.
g. Plus-X Port – Check with your network administrator otherwise
the factory default setting can be used. This port must match the
setting for Plus-X Port on your ARC Plus Touch or ARC Plus SL unit.
To verify communication, open a command prompt on your computer and
ping the address you just assigned to the unit to ensure it is correctly
configured.
