Configuration of CR3(s) is normally done on the network, but in some instances, it may be necessary to connect to the CR3(s) directly.

•Before the CR3(s) can be configured, fixed IP addresses should be assigned to each unit by the Network Manager.

•You should also know the Subnet and Gateway addresses.

•The CR3 should be connected to the network using a straight-through network lead (supplied).

Use the following steps to assign the IP addresses to the CR3(s):

Either:

Run the Synergy Management Tool or Synergy Remote Management Tool.

•See Synergy Management Tool Manual (Document Number: IM5210) or Synergy Remote Management Tool Manual (Document Number: IM5242).

Or:

Access the Network Configuration Tool at: www.support.the-imcgroup.com/Utilities/SRNetworkConfig.zip

Note: Any SR2s on the same network will also be shown in the Board list field.

•If there are no CR3s found you will need to get the IT Department to check the network.

•CR3s can be connected directly to a laptop using a crossover cable to confirm their operation.

3.Click once on the Wiznet Mac address of the required Unit in the Board List field to select it (See Figure 97 above).
