Overview
This document provides instructions for conguring the Ethernet settings on Innotech
controllers and devices equipped with an Ethernet port. Depending on the controller or
device, this can be accomplished with either the EtherMate software from Innotech, or
with the embedded web server where applicable. Detailed information for conguring
and commissioning Ethernet connections on applicable Innotech device(s) is provided.
This manual also contains a general troubleshooting section to assist you in conguring
Ethernet settings on devices where the IP address of the Innotech device is unknown or
has been lost.
If installing on a shared network, site installation and Ethernet commissioning
will in most cases involve compliance with the requirements of the IT Manager for
Networking and Information Security. Technicians performing the installation are
advised to contact the IT Manager on site for specic site installation instructions.
This is not necessary for installations on a dedicated network.
