SYSTEM NETWORK SETUP
The MCON has the flexibility to configure and manage the STAR unit through a Web enabled interface
called the Web Console.
CONNECTING TO THE MCON
The MCON by default uses DHCP for IP assignment. If a DHCP server is not found within 5 minutes from
power up, the MCON uses the following default IP address.
• Default Static IP: 169.254.1.1
• Default Netmask: 255.255.0.0
• Default Gateway: 169.254.1.1
It is recommended to connect the MCON using loopback/crossover cable directly to a windows PC for the
initial setup. This will ensure that the MCON defaults to the IP address above after 5 minutes. If the
MCON is instead connected to a LAN with DHCP server, it may acquire a different IP address, making it
difficult to locate on the network for first time setup.
CHANGING MCON NETWORK SETTINGS
The simplest way to change network settings of the MCON is to navigate a web browser to the MCON’s
IP address. Use the following credentials to authenticate the connection.
User: edison
Password: p4ssw0rd
Once connected, use the Config menu to select Network. The Figure 15 shows the network configuration
screen. The user can choose between dhcp or a static IP address. Once changes are made, click on the
Save button. Changes occur within 30 seconds.
