2.1 Logging into the Turbine Station
The Turbine Station features an embedded web
interface which allows users to log in via a standard
web browser.
To do this, your PC and the Turbine IP station have to
be connected together via a PoE switch using network
cables:
1. Connect the PC to the PoE switch
2. Connect the PoE port on the station to the PoE
switch
When the Turbine Station is connected to the network,
the IP address of the station is automatically obtained
in one of two ways:
1. IP address obtained from a DHCP server
2. If there is no DHCP server, an IP address in the
range 169.254.x.x will be assigned.
To make the station speak its IP address:
● Press the call button on the station
