IP Address Configuration

To see Smart Clock’s 50320 Ethernet Board Click Here

Smart Clock Ethernet Boards are shipped with a default
IP address of 0.0.0.0 which automatically enables DHCP with the unit. If there is a DHCP server on your network, the board will be able to pick up an IP address, gateway address and subnet mask when it boots up.

LANTRONIX DEVICE INSTALLER
The Lantronix Device Installer program allows the user to locate and configure the Ethernet Board’s IP address on a given network. This program can be downloaded and installed from the SmartClock.com website.

I.Open the Lantronix DeviceInstaller program. The home screen will open (see Figure 64).

Figure 64. DeviceInstaller Home Screen

II.Click on the “Search” button located at the top of the window.

III. After a few moments, “XPort-03” should appear on the screen along with its assigned IP address and designated hardware address (see Figure 65). If it does not appear, check all connections from the Ethernet Board to the Smart Clock and verify that both are powered.

Note: DeviceInstaller cannot locate Smart Clock
Ethernet Boards across different subnets. Either the Ethernet Board must be on the same subnet for configuration purposes or DeviceInstaller must be installed on a computer connected to that subnet. The Out of the Box program is not required to configure the Ethernet Board, so it does not have to be installed on the other subnet.

IV. If you would like to assign your own IP address to the Ethernet Board, continue to steps V – IX. If you would like to keep the current IP address, please skip to the “PING DEVICE” section on the next page.
