2Getting Started
LAN Interface configuration
Using Default
When “Using Default” is selected, the factory default parameters are taken
instead. These parameters enable a TCP/IP connection to the LAN Interface
without further configuration, see Table 5.
Figure 14 Using Default (Principle)
Since the default IP address is a so-called local address, it will not be routed by
any network device. Thus, the PC and the card must reside in the same subnet.
The user may open a Telnet session using the default IP address and change
the parameters stored in the non-volatile memory of the card. He may then
close the session, select the initialization mode “Using Stored”, power-on again
and establish the TCP/IP connection using the new parameters.
When the card is wired to the PC directly (e.g. using a cross-over cable or a
local hub), separated from the local area network, the user may simply keep
the default parameters to establish the TCP/IP connection.

NOTE
Using the default address in your local area network may result in network problems. Take
care and change it to a valid address immediately.
Table 5 Using Default Parameters
IP address: 192.168.254.11
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway not specified
NOTE
In the “Using Default” mode, the parameters stored in the memory of the card are not
cleared automatically. If not changed by the user, they are still available, when switching
back to the mode “Using Stored”.
