The adapter reads the network address switches first to determine if the
switches are set to a valid number. You set the node address by using the
network address switches. Valid settings range from 001…254.
When the switches are set to a valid number, the adapter’s IP address is
192.168.1.xxx (where xxx represents the number set on the switches).
The adapter’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and the gateway address is set to
0.0.0.0. The adapter does not have a host name assigned, or use any Domain
Name System when using the network address switch settings.
If the switches are set to an invalid number (for example, 000 or a value greater
than 254 excluding 888), the adapter checks to see if DHCP is enabled. Setting
the switches to 888 restores default factory settings.
IMPORTANT If you set the value of the adapter switch to 888 and then power cycle
the module, the following occurs:
• The DHCP Enabled function is enabled (set to True).
• The Ethernet link is negotiated automatically. The Auto Negotiate
function is set to True.
• The web server is enabled. The Disabled Web Server function is
disabled.
• The Ethernet ports are disabled. Both ports are re-enabled once the
switches are returned to their previous value and power is cycled.
