Connecting to the SMTCP-2 for the rst time WITHOUT DHCP
The rst time you connect the SMTCP-2, you will need to perform the following steps to set the initial
conguration. This includes establishing an HTTP connection and manually setting the IP address for the
SMTCP-2.
1. Power o all devices.
2. Use a female to male Straight-Through RS-232 (Serial) cable to connect
the SMTCP-2 to the computer.
3. Use a CAT5 ethernet cable to connect the SMTCP-2 to a TCP/IP network
via a network router or other network connection.
4. Power on the computer and run a terminal program such as Hyperterminal to open a serial connection
to the SMTCP-2 using the standard 9600 baud, 8, N, 1, None Flow Control conguration.
5. While powering on the SMTCP-2, press and hold Shift-1 (exclamation) until a command prompt appears.
6. Press enter to show the network conguration help screen as follows:

Enter a command followed by optional parameters
Commands are SET DHCP INFO RESET and QUIT/SAVE
SET command allows you to change the network conguration:
SI xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = Set IP Address
(if IP address is not entered then DHCP is ENABLED)
SM xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = Set IP Mask
SG xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = Set Gateway Address
RN = Reset Network Params:
IPADDR = 192.168.0.2
IPMASK = 255.255.255.0
GATEWAY = 192.168.0.1
DHCP ON = Enable DHCP
DHCP OFF = Disable DHCP
INFO = Display network conguration
RESET = Factory reset
QUIT = Saves conguration and quits
SAVE = Same as QUITNOTE: the above IP address is for demonstration purposes only. Actual results
may be different.
7. Follow the instuctions to manually assign an IP address to the SMTCP-2.
