Dual- or Multi-Sensor System

All sensors are shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.10. To set up and connect to a dual-sensor or multi-sensor system you must make sure each sensor has a unique IP address.

When connecting cordset connectors to the sensor's connectors, do not exceed a torque of 2 Nm (18 in-lbs). Ensure that you properly secure the cordset cabling to avoid stress loading on the sensor connectors.

To configure a dual- or multi-sensor system

1. Make sure all sensors are unplugged.

2. Decide which sensor will be the "main" sensor with which you will group other sensors.

This is the sensor on which GoPxL will run and to which you will connect to configure your multi-sensor system later.

You can leave this sensor's IP address at its default of 192.168.1.10. If you need to change it to work on your network, follow the instructions below to change this sensor's IP address first.

3. Power up one of the other sensors (or the "main" sensor if you must change its IP address) by connecting the Power and Ethernet cordset.

The power LED (blue) of the sensor should turn on immediately.

4. Enter the sensor's default IP address (192.168.1.10) in a web browser.

The sensor's web interface loads in the browser.

5. Move your mouse over the navigation bar along the left of the interface to expand it, and make sure the Settings page is selected.
6. In the Network Settings panel, change the IP address to the desired address and press Tab or click outside of the IP Address field.

7. Make note of or copy the new address in the IP Address field.
8. Click Save Changes.

9. To confirm that you want to make the change, click Continue.

The sensor restarts.

10. Wait several seconds.
11. Type or paste the new IP address in the web browser's address field.

The sensor's web interface loads, using the new IP address.

12. Power down the sensor
13. For each additional sensor, perform steps 3 to 12.
14. After you have changed the IP addresses of the sensor so that they all have unique IP addresses, see Creating a Sensor System to group the sensors in GoPxL.
