Chapter 4 - Configuration

4.1 First time Configuration

The 915U-2 has a built-in web server, containing web pages for analysing and minor

modification to the module‟s configuration. The configuration can be accessed using

any web browser however we recommend using Microsoft

Internet Explorer 8.

4.1.1 Default IP Address

The default factory IP Address of the 915U-2 is 192.168.0.1XX, where XX is the last two

digits of the serial number (the default “Setup IP address” is shown on the printed label

on the side of the module)

Netmask 255.255.255.0

Username is “user” and the default password is “user”

The 915U-2 will temporarily load some factory-default settings if powered up

with the #6 dipswitch under the side configuration panel switched on. When in

SETUP mode, wireless operation is disabled. The previous configuration

remains stored in non-volatile memory and will only change if a configuration

parameter is modified and the change saved.

Do not forget to set the switch back to the OFF position and re-cycle the

power at the conclusion of the configuration for normal operation

otherwise, it will continue to boot into the default IP address.

4.1.2 Changing PC Network Settings

The Default IP address is in the range 192.168.0.XXX and so will require a PC on this

network or be able to change the network settings to access the module configuration.

The following is the procedure for changing A PC network settings.

You will need a “straight-through” Ethernet cable between the PC Ethernet port and the

915U-2. The factory default Ethernet address for the 915U-2 is 192.168.0.1XX where

XX are the last two digits of the serial number (check the label on the back of the

module).

Connect the Ethernet cable between unit and the PC configuring the module.

Open the side configuration panel and set the #6 Dipswitch to ON.

With this switch on the 915U-2 will always start with the Ethernet IP address

192.168.0.1XX, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, Gateway IP 192.168.0.1 and the radio IP

address 192.168.2.1. Do not forget to set the switch back to the OFF position and

restart the module at the conclusion of configuration.
