6. Restart your computer.

3.4 How to Edit Configuration Files

Before configuring a VertX controller to communicate through DHCP or Static TCP/IP Addressing, learning the following conventions is necessary.

First, you must become familiar with editing conventions to successfully configure the VertX controller.

3.4.1 Conventions

The rules described are basic guidelines for editing the configuration files successfully.

• Lines beginning with “#” are comments and are ignored. o The term “uncomment” means that you should remove the “#” symbol from the referenced line in

the configuration file.

o The term “comment” means to add a “#” symbol to the referenced line in the configuration file.

• White spaces must be space characters, and not tabs.

• In the Installer Tools, do not uncheck Convert CRLF to LF (found at the top of the Edit screen). This

checkbox ensures that Carriage Returns are converted correctly to line feeds for the VertX Controller.

CAUTION: Currently there is minimal error checking on configuration parameter data. If errors occur during startup, you must verify that all configuration data is within valid ranges.

3.4.2 Accessing the Installer Tools

When configuring for a DHCP or Static TCP/IP connection, access the Installer Tools to edit the configuration files.

1. Open your Internet Browser.

2. Enter the URL of the controller into the Address field.

3. Click

. The Installer Tools menu will display.

3.5 DHCP TCP/IP Addressing

The VertX controller’s default communication configuration is DHCP addressing. When a DHCP address is not provided, the controller will default to a static IP address of 10.19.4.129. When the controller successfully obtains an IP address from a DHCP server, the V1000 communications will use the controller’s hostname. The default hostname of a V2000 is “VertX_Controller.” Access the controller by completing the following steps:

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the controller connecting it to the computer or Ethernet Hub. See Error! Reference source not found. Error! Reference source not found..

2. Open your Internet Browser.

3. Enter the URL of the controller into the Address field.

The default DHCP URL is VertX_Controller.yourdomain.suffix/InstallerTools.html. Domain names identify one or more IP addresses. For example, the domain name microsoft.com represents

about a dozen IP addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. Every domain name has a suffix, examples of a suffix include .com, .net, .org etc.

Note: If access to the controller is not successful, use the default static IP address (10.19.4.129). CAUTION: For the DHCP communications to function properly the network must have a functioning DNS

(Domain Name Server) or you will be unable to communicate with the controller. The following configuration files require editing to enable DHCP.

The Setup Host Communication screen will take you to the Edit Configuration Files screen. The configuration files described in this section will enable DHCP TCP/IP host communications. See sections 3.2,

3.3, and 3.4 for instructions on how to start. Select a file from the list the appropriate configuration file and click Edit File. If you need to clear the

selection, click Clear Selection. While following these instructions edit the circled areas shown.
