HMI Interface Board Software Updater and Firmware Download Procedure
Connect to a Network With a DHCP Server
System firmware is loaded into the HMI Interface Board via a computer (i.e. laptop or desktop) using an Ethernet
connection. The HMI Interface board and a laptop or desktop must both be configured with distinct IP addresses to
communicate.
When connected to a network with a DHCP Server present, the computer can be configured to automatically receive a
Dynamic IP address.
Configure a Dynamic IP Address using Windows XP
1. From the Start menu, click Settings>Network Connections>Local Area Connection.
2. Click the General tab, and click Properties.
3. Under the General tab, scroll down and select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and click Properties.
4. Click Obtain an IP address Automatically. Click OK on the two open dialogs, and Close on the Local Area
Connection Status dialog.
Upon completion, refer to Download System Firmware to the HMI Interface Board
