2. Installation
2.1 Startup
After connecting the supply voltage the gateway will boot up automatically.
The following calls are made on system startup:
• Configuration of the network interface (Ethernet) via DHCP or static configuration
• Providing a RAM drive as drive C:
• Obtaining the system time via SNTP
• Starting the main program
The main program provides the entire functionality including the web interface of the gateway.
2.2 Network configuration
The gateway is configured through the built-in web interface, see 3. Configuration.
To be able to access the web interface, the IP address of the gateway must be in the same subnet (IP
address range) as your local network. If you are unsure about the configuration of your network, please
consult your network administrator.
If the default IP address of the gateway (192.168.1.101) is not within your subnet range, you can change
the IP address using CHIPtool, a free Windows®-based application which can be downloaded here
.
If the link above does not work, go to the main Beck IPC GmbH download web page
http://www.beck-ipc.com/en/download/index.asp
and search for “CHIPtool”.
Default network configuration of Anybus M-Bus to Modbus-TCP Gateway

Changing the network configuration may restrict accessibility. If the
network parameters have been correctly set by an administrator you
should not change them.
