At first login:
STEP 8 - Accept License Agreement. The Network Module web interface
appears.
1.1.2 Finding and setting the IP address
A- Your network is equipped with a BOOTP/DHCP server
(default)
1 Read from the device LCD
If your device has an LCD, from the LCD’s menu, navigate to
Identification>>>"COM card IPv4".
Note the IP address of the card.
Go to the section: Accessing the web interface through Network.
2 With web browser throughthe configuration port
For example, if your device does not have an LCD, the IP address can be
discovered by accessing the web interface through RNDIS andbrowsing to
Settings>Network.
To access the web interface through RNDIS, see theAccessing the web interface
through RNDISsection.
Navigate toContextual help>>>Settings>>>Network & Protocol>>>IPV4.
Read the IPv4 settings.
B- Your network is not equipped with a BOOTP/DHCP server
1 Define from the configuration port
The IP address can be defined by accessing the web interface through RNDIS.
To access web interface through RNDIS, see theAccessing the web interface
through RNDISsection.
Define the IP settings:
Navigate toContextual help>>>Settings>>>Network & Protocol>>>IPV4.
Select Manual (Static IP).

1.1.3 Accessing the web interface through RNDIS
This connection is used to access and configure the Network Module network
settings locally through a RNDIS(Ethernet over USB interface).
A- Connecting the configuration cable
1. Connect aUSB-C cable to the USB-C connectoron the host computer.
2. Connect the cable to the Settings connector on theNetwork Module.
B- Web interface access through RNDIS
1 Configuring the RNDIS
Automatic configuration
Manual configuration
STEP 1 –In case Windows® OS fails to find driver automatically, go to
theWindows control panel>Network and sharing center>Local area connection
STEP 2 –Right click on the RNDIS local area connection and select Properties.
STEP 3 –Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)” and press the
Properties button
RNDIS driver is used to emulate a network connection from USB.
After the card is connected to the PC, Windows® OS will automatically search
for the RNDIS driver.
On some computers, the OS can find the RNDIS driver then configuration is
completed, and you can go to Accessing the web interface.
On some others it may fail then proceed to manual configuration.
