Temporarily Defaulting the IP Address
If you don't know the currently configured IP address, you can temporarily set to 192.168.111.222, then
connect to the web interface to view and/or change it.
This resets the IP address for as long as power is applied but does not save the change permanently. Once the
link is removed and power is cycled to the unit, the previously configured IP address is used again.
1. Remove power from the Controller by disconnecting the 12V DC input.
2. Connect a wire link between Reader 1 D0 input and Reader 1 L1 output.
BZ L1 D1 DO
READER 1
3. Power up the Controller.
4. When the Controller starts up it will use the following settings:
IP address : 192.168.111.222
Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0
Gateway : 192.168.111.254
DHCP : disabled
5. Connect to the Controller by entering 192.168.111.222 into the address bar of your web browser, and view
or change the IP address as required.
6. Remove the wire link and cycle power to the Controller again.
You can now connect to the Controller using the newly configured (or now known) IP address.
Addressing Expanders
The Expander Addressing option is used to view the hardware that is connected to the system network, and to
set the addresses of DIN Rail modules which have auto-addressing capability. This page displays the details of
all modules currently connected or that have registered previously but may currently be offline.
Listed for each module is:
The module type
The serial number
Current firmware version
The current address of the module
Whether the module is registered with the Controller
Whether the module is currently online
When connecting a module to the network, it must be added to Protege WX and allocated a unique physical
address. By default all DIN Rail modules are shipped from ICT with the address of 254 and without changing
this address, the module will not be able to register with the Controller.
i
For older legacy PCB modules, the address is configured via DIP switches. Refer to the relevant
Installation Manual for instructions on configuring the address of the module.
