XPress Ethernet BridgeUser’s Manual
Setup
1. Digital conguration is done by means of the XPress built-in browser interface. It should be
powered on and connected at least temporarily to a network containing a computer that can
run a conventional web browser.
2. Download the Digi IP Discovery Utility from our website and extract
changer_DIGI.exe from the zip archive, placing it on your desktop or in a convenient folder.

Note that this utility only runs on MS Windows, not linux or MAC. If you must use a non-
Windows computer for conguration, make sure your subnet mask allows your computer to
see 192.168.17.17. Connect to that default IP address with your web browser, continuing the
setup procedure with step 6.
3. Run the IP Discovery Utility, changer_DIGI.exe and you should see a window similar to this:
The XPress should appear in the list at the default IP address of 192.168.17.17. If it does not,
click “Search” to regenerate the list. If it still does not appear, you have a connection issue
and need to re-examine the cabling or you may have a rewall issue on your computer.
4. Double click the list item that refers to the XPress being congured. You should see a second
window that is similar to the picture on the next page:
1. Consult IT - each XPress radio comes default with a static IP address of 192.168.17.17. We
recommend connecting each radio to a stand-alone computer disconnected from any shared
network, and consulting with your IT dept before connecting them to any shared network.
2. Connect hardware - attach antenna to the XPress radio; attach Ethernet cable (straight or
cross-over) between the XPress radio and the “DATA + PWR” jack on the POE injector; attach
power supply to the POE injector; attach another Ethernet cable (straight or cross-over) be-
tween your Ethernet device and the “DATA” jack on the POE injector.
3. Congure radios* - use either the Digital Setup method (see below), or use the old DIP
switch method (see page 3 of the 90000888_B.pdf manual at http://www.digi.com/products/
wireless/xpress.jsp#docs).
* Note: XEB09-CIPA(-W) radios come pre-congured as a paired set. No conguration is re-
quired.
