and via a stand-alone computer
Compack Controller’s Default Networking Data
Each Compack controller is shipped with a unique Eltek Valere MAC address (Media Access Control) stored inside the controller and marked on the controller’s label.
Compack controllers have by default the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled. Thus, the controller can automatically obtain necessary access data to
operate in an existing Local Area Network (LAN), based on the Ethernet communication technique and the TCP/IP protocol suite.
Note that the controller is shipped without a fixed IP address (IPv4). Private adress is 192.168.10.20
Controller Access —Via Ethernet LAN
If you have access to a Local Area Network (LAN) —based on the Ethernet communication technique and the TCP/IP protocol suite —you can simply connect the Compack
controller to the LAN, and get Web browser access to the controller from your networked computer.

In Short
To get access to the Compack controller via a stand-alone computer, just connect the controller directly to the computer’s NIC, using a
standard Ethernet straight-through or crossover cable.
The controller and the computer will assign themselves a random IP address. E.g. the controller may get <0.0.0.1> and the computer
<169.254.52.132>.
For the computer to be able to access the controller, both devices need to have different IP addresses, but in the same range. As the
computer’s NIC IP address is now e.g. <169.254.52.132>, so reconfiguring the controller’s IP address from e.g. <0.0.0.1> to e.g.
<169.254.52.133> will enable them to “talk” to each other.
Then, access the controller via your Web browser, and change its LAN device name, to facilitate later identification.
The “Controller Access — Via Stand-alone PC” procedure involves following steps (as described in more detail in the next chapter):
1. Start the “Eltek Valere Network Utility” program
2. Connect the computer to the Compack controller and check its MAC address
3. Find the NIC’s IP address and subnet mask used by the computer
4. Change the controller’s IP address to the same range as the computer’s
5. Access the controller’s configuration pages in your Web browser
6. Log in with the <admin> account, 7. Change the controller’s Device Name
For acronym descriptions, refer to chapter “Glossary”, page 44 .
Read also chapter “Compack Controller’s Default Networking Data”, page 16.
More Detailed
Carry out the following steps to access the Compack controller via a stand-alone computer:
1. Start the “Eltek Valere Network Utility” program by opening the file “EVIPSetup.exe”, which will not display any LAN devices,
as the computer has now nothing connected to the NIC. Notice that if the computer has installed wireless Ethernet Network Interface
Cards, they should not be active; otherwise the Eltek Valere Network Utility may display LAN devices accessed wireless.
