If a new unit is being configured for use for the first time, or has been
reset to factory default configuration for any reason, the unit will enter
Provisioning Mode. This mode allows you to program the unit's initial
configuration settings.
If the unit is in Provisioning Mode, it will try to connect to the internet using
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP):
• If the unit successfully connects to the internet, you can do a
centralized configuration of the unit using the RACER interface, or
do a local configuration using the Configurator interface.
• If the unit fails to connect to the internet, you must do a local
configuration using the Configurator interface.
NOTE
By default, the local IP address of the unit is set as
192.168.0.10, and the subnet mask is set as 255.255.255.0 (as
shown in the Current IP Configuration section).
In Provisioning Mode, the unit connects to the cloud server
through a WebSocket connection with 4 096-bit asymmetric
encryption and verified security certificates, protecting the
communication from cyber-security threats.
• Check that the unit is in Provisioning Mode by looking at the
colored icon to the right of the RACER™ tag in the upper left-
hand corner of the screen (Figure 16 (page 50)).
Figure 16. RACER status icon (Provisioning Mode)
• If the icon reads Provisioning, the unit is in Provisioning Mode.
Configure the unit by doing the steps shown in this section.
• If the icon reads Online or Offline, the unit has been configured
before. In this case, you must choose between two further options:
• If you want to do a new configuration by reverting the unit to
Provisioning Mode, reset the unit as shown in “Resetting the
unit to factory defaults” (page 131).
