Factory default settings of Innotech devices

All Innotech controllers and devices are congured at the factory with default Ethernet settings that can be modied based on your network requirements. These settings are required in order to correctly congure these devices so that correct functionality is achieved within your network conguration. The following sections provide the default
Ethernet settings for devices equipped with an Ethernet port, and the default Innotech network settings for devices that are covered in this document.

Default Ethernet settings

It is important to know the default Ethernet settings of your Innotech device(s) in order to prepare the device(s) for deployment on your particular LAN. The table below shows each applicable controller or device, and the associated factory default Ethernet settings.

Default device address and baud rate

The Innotech network device settings allow your device to communicate with iComm, the Innotech communication software hub. Each device must have a unique device
address, and must be congured at the same baud rate as iComm software in order
to communicate on an Innotech network. The table below shows the default network settings of each applicable controller or device as they are shipped from the factory.

Dynamic and static IP addressing

An IP address can be assigned to a device or a computer automatically by a DHCP server (dynamic IP address), or manually by modifying the properties of your LAN adapter (static IP address). As shown in Table 2-2 Innotech devices are factory
congured for either dynamic or static IP address assignment.
You must assign a static IP address to your Innotech device(s) to avoid any communication problems. One such problem with dynamic IP addressing is IP address
conicts, where two device(s) get assigned the same IP address. Another problem that
may occur with dynamic IP addressing is that your Innotech device(s) may get assigned a different IP address each time the device reboots or restarts. Both of these problems can result in your device(s) not communicating correctly on your network or with the iComm software.
It is also important to know that when a device that is factory congured for dynamic IP
address assignment is unable to reach the LAN DHCP server, it will automatically be assigned a special IP address in the range of 169.168.xxx.xxx by the Windows service called APIPA (Automatic Private IP addressing).
Therefore when connecting the Genesis, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, or a CONV-E to a LAN without a DHCP server, or when connecting directly to your computer, please keep in mind that these devices may be automatically assigned the 169.168.xxx.xxx IP address by the APIPA service. This information is important and may be helpful when diagnosing communication problems with your Innotech device(s).

Overview

This chapter provides information on different methods of connecting your Innnotech
device(s) to your computer, or your LAN for initial conguration. There are several
options available to you and each one is described in detail below. Depending on what device(s) you are connecting, and how you connect to your LAN will dictate the method
of conguring the Ethernet settings of your device(s) to function on your LAN. Therefore
reference links are provided for you to easily navigate to the appropriate chapter to
congure the Ethernet settings of your device(s).

Genesis II, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, and CONV-E

The Genesis II , MAXIM III, and MAXIM 1010 controllers, along with the CONV-E
converter are factory congured for DHCP address assignment, as shown in Table 2-2.
Although it is not recommended to use DHCP IP address assignment for permanent deployment, these devices can be connected to a LAN with a DHCP server for initial
conguration. Alternatively you can connect these devices to a LAN without a DHCP
server, or connect directly to your computer as described in the sections below.

Connecting to a LAN with DHCP server

When you connect the Genesis II, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, or a CONV-E to a LAN where IP address assignment is handled by a DHCP server, your device(s) should automatically be assigned an IP address for your particular LAN. You are then ready to
congure the Ethernet settings of your device(s) with the Innotech EtherMate software.
Go to Chapter 4 – Conguring GenII, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, and CONV-E

Connecting directly to a computer

You must use an RJ45 crossover cable when connecting your Innotech device(s) to your computer. When your Genesis II, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, or CONV-E is connected directly to your computer, or to a LAN with no DHCP server, the IP address will be assigned by APIPA. Please refer to Chapter 2 – Dynamic and static IP addressing for
more information on APIPA. You are then ready to congure the Ethernet settings of
your device(s) with the Innotech EtherMate software.
Go to Chapter 4 – Conguring GenII, MAXIM III, MAXIM 1010, and CONV-E

IG01, IG03, IG04, and IWS01

The IG01, IG03, and IG04 gateways, along with the IWS01 are factory congured with
a static IP address, as shown in Table 2-2. The Ethernet settings on these devices
are congured using the embedded web server, and therefore it is recommended that
you connect the IG01, IG03, IG04, or IWS01 directly to a computer using an RJ45
crossover cable for initial conguration. You can then congure the Ethernet settings of
your device(s) using the embedded web server. Please note that in order to access the
embedded web server, you must rst congure the network settings of your computer to
be on the same network range as the factory default Ethernet settings for these devices.

Overview

This chapter provides general troubleshooting information for your Innotech device(s) covered in this document. This information will help you recover the IP address of
your device(s) in cases where the IP address is unknown, or has not been congured
correctly.
Recovering the IP address of your device(s) depends on the type of device. Also, some
recovery methods are more complicated than others and limited to specic devices, and
therefore should only be used as a last resort. The recovery method described in the next section will work with all Innotech devices equipped with an Ethernet port.

Finding a device with unknown IP address

Sometimes your device(s) may have an IP address that is on a different network range than your computer or your LAN. In order to search for a device with an IP address that may be on a different subnet, your device must be directly connected to your computer LAN adapter using an Ethernet crossover cable. If you have multiple LAN adapters in your computer, all other LAN adapters must be disabled, as described in the next section.
Otherwise you can skip to the Searching for a device on a different subnet section to
search and nd your Innotech device with EtherMate software.

Disabling a LAN adapter

Disabling a LAN adapter varies somewhat depending on the type of operating system you are running on your computer. Therefore instructions are provided below to disable a LAN adapter in Windows 7, Vista, and XP operating systems supported by Innotech.
Before proceeding, verify that your Innotech device is connected directly to the LAN adapter of your computer using an Ethernet crossover cable.
Windows 7 and Vista
Open 1. Control Panel | Network and Sharing Center.
In the left pane of the Network and Sharing Center window, click on Change adapter 2. settings for Windows 7. For Windows Vista click on Manage network connections, as illustrated in Figure 5-1 below.

Searching for a device on a different subnet

When you have disabled all LAN adapters, with the exception of the one your device is connected to, you are ready to search for your device using the EtherMate software.
Follow the steps below to search for your Innotech device with EtherMate.
Launch the EtherMate software and verify that you only have one LAN adapter listed 1. in the pulldown menu. Click the check box next to Search for devices on different
subnets, as illustrated in Figure 5-4 below.
EtherMate – select to search for devices on different subnetsFigure 5-4:
