If Telnet is Not Recognized
Telnet is included as a standard feature with Windows Vista and Windows 7, however the feature is not installed
by default and must be enabled.
If Telnet has not been enabled, you will receive an error:
'telnet'isnotrecognizedasaninternalorexternalcommand,operableprogramorbatch
file
To Enable Telnet:
1. From the Windows Start Menu, select Control Panel >Programs > Turn Windows Features On or Off
2. This opens the Windows Features dialog. Scroll down until you see the Telnet Client, select the option then
click OK.
Once enabled, you will be able to continue with the IP Address Change process. If prompted, restart your
computer before continuing.
Setting the Controller to a Temporary IP Address
This method of changing the IP address is used when you do not know the current IP address of the Controller.
1. Turn on DIP switch 3 then cycle the power.
The Controller will start up with a temporary IP address of
192.168.111.222
2. Change your PC IP address to something on the same subnet (such
as 192.168.111.100), then follow the Telnet instructions to change the
IP address permanently.
When you have finished, remember to switch DIP switch 3 off again.
