4.4 IP Address Configuration

All SS-1200-S, SS-2200-S and SS-4200-S series are shipped with a factory default

configuration as follows:

IP Address:192.168.1.1

Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.0

IMPORTANT: If you expect to remotely connect to the SS-1200-S, SS-2200-S or SS-4200-S

series, you must change the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway to match your Local

Area Network as described in either the 'IP Address Configuration with HyperTerminal ' or 'IP

Address Configuration with TELNET ' sections.

Note: If your SS-1200-S, SS-2200-S or SS-4200-S already has the IP Address, Subnet Mask

and Default Gateway set for your network, you may proceed to the 'Small Form-Factor Plug

Module ' section.

4.4.1 IP Address Configuration with HyperTerminal

The IP address of the configurable series can be configured via a serial connection with either

Microsoft's HyperTerminal application (available on most Windows PCs) or an open source free

software terminal emulator for MS-Windows.

Step 1. Plug the SS-1200-S, SS-2200-S or SS-4200-S into an external power source using a

supplied switching AC adapter and AC line cord. Note, POWER 1 or 2 LED is illuminated green

indicating power is available from the connected DC power socket. The other POWER LED is not

illuminated, indicating a lack of power to the unconnected DC power socket.

Step 2. Connect your PC and SS-1200-S, SS-2200-S or SS-4200 using the provided Datacom

Systems DRL512-2M-R cable. Connect the DB9 Female pin end to the serial port on your PC and

connect the DB9 Male pin to the SERIAL port on the unit.

NOTE: For PCs without 9-pin serial ports, check with your product representative for available

sources of a USB to RS-232 Plug-in Adapter.
