Before deploying domo MESH NETNode units in the field it is strongly advised to test the
products in a bench environment in order to gain familiarity with the product.
BEFORE SWITCHING ON THE UNIT PLEASE NOTE:
The DC power supply must be set to 12.5V and assume up to 2.5A of current draw.
2.6. Establishing Connection to a Node
Once a user has connected to a unit and established a NETNode on their network operating
the system is easy.
The procedure to establish communication with a node varies depending on whether the
User wishes to connect the MESH to a network running DHCP or whether the user wishes to
run with static IP addresses.
If your network has no DHCP server you will need to assign a fixed IP address for the
NETNode using a serial RS232 interface. If you have a DHCP server the NETNode will
automatically acquire an IP address and you can connect straight via IP. You may still wish
to change the DHCP IP address to a fixed IP address using the browser.
2.6.1. Connecting the NETNode to your Computer using Serial (RS232)
The first time you set up a NETNode with no DHCP you‟ll be connecting using a serial RS232
interface.
You‟ll only have to do this once – every other time you‟ll hook up to the NETNode using an
IP interface using a web browser.
