Factory default settings of Innotech devices
All Innotech controllers and devices are congured at the factory with default Ethernet
settings that can be modied based on your network requirements. These settings
are required in order to correctly congure these devices so that correct functionality is
achieved within your network conguration. 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.
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 congured 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
congured 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
conicts, 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 congured 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 conguration. 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 conguring 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
congure 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 congured 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
conguration. 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
congure the Ethernet settings of your device(s) with the Innotech EtherMate software.
Go to Chapter 4 – Conguring 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 congure the Ethernet settings of
your device(s) with the Innotech EtherMate software.
Go to Chapter 4 – Conguring 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 congured with
a static IP address, as shown in Table 2-2. The Ethernet settings on these devices
are congured 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 conguration. You can then congure 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 congure the network settings of your computer to
be on the same network range as the factory default Ethernet settings for these devices.

Conguring Ethernet settings of IWS01 with embedded web server
The Ethernet settings on the IWS01 can be congured and modied with the embedded
web server to suit your LAN requirements. But in order to initially access the embedded
web server on IWS01 out of the box, you need to congure the network settings of
your computer to be on the same network range as the IWS01 default factory Ethernet
settings.
For detailed instructions on how to congure your computer network settings, please
refer to the Conguring network settings of your computer section.
When you have congured your computer network settings, follow the instructions below
to access the IWS01 embedded web server, and edit or modify the default Ethernet
settings of the IWS01 to suit your LAN requirements.
NOTE
The IWS01 is built using Microsoft Silverlight® technology and requires the latest Silverlight plug-in to be
installed. When the embedded web server is loaded, the user will be prompted to install the Silverlight
plug-in if it is not already installed.
Launch Internet Explorer and enter the default IP address 1. (192.168.2.100) of the
IWS01, as illustrated in Figure 4-25 below.

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 congured
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 specic 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.
