2 Safety Has Priority
Please note the following instructions for a safe and problem-free operation of your e-Box:
• Read through this installation information carefully.
• Use only the AC adapter supplied with your e-Box and ensure that the voltage value printed on it matches the
local line voltage.
• The e-Box has no power switch. Connecting or disconnecting the AC adapter is the only way to power the
e-Box device. For this reason the AC adapter and its power cable must always be accessible.
• Comply with all local regulations governing weak and heavy current electrical installations.
• Without protection, the e-Box must not be used in either wet areas or in hazardous areas.

6 Quick Installation Guide
6.1 Powering the e-Box
The e-Box has no power switch. Connecting the AC adapter is the only way to power the e-Box device. The e-Box
is ready for communication access as soon as the red status LED starts blinking.
6.2 Setting the IP-Address via RS232
1. Connect the e-Box to your computer using the included RS232-Link-Cable
2. Use the supplied AC adapter to power the e-Box
3. Open any terminal program and select the COM-Port where you connected the e-Box
4. Set the terminal program COM-Port parameters to 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity, no handshake
5. Verify that each command line will be sent with a <CR/LF>
6. Enter new IP-Address: sys://ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(ask network administrator)
7. Enter new Subnet-Address: sys://sn=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (
ask network administrator)
8. Enter Default Gateway: sys://dgw=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(this step is optional)
9. Enter Domain Name Server: sys://dns=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(this step is optional)
10. Disconnect the AC adapter from the e-Box
6.3 Connecting to the LAN
11. Connect the e-Box to the LAN using a standard Network-Patch-Cable Cat.5
12. Power the e-Box to activate the new IP-Address settings
13. Start your browser - (verify that the Java VM is installed and active) and enter the IP-Address of your e-Box to
get access to the e-Box HTTP-Server
14 When asked for a username and password enter “ADMIN” and the code “fw9”. These settings are permanent.
6.4 Device Configuration via HTTP-Server
15. Click on “Device Configuration”
16. Click on “Ethernet”, “RS232” or “Identification” to complete or adjust your settings
17. Choose one of the available presets or make individual entries
18. Be sure to “Submit” your changes before leaving the HTML page
19. Be sure to “Submit and Restart” your changes before leaving the HTML page if any parameter marked with a
sign has changed
6.5 Select Application Settings via HTTP-Server
20. Click on Application Settings
21. Choose one of the available presets or make individual entries according to the assigned e-Box function
22. After having selected a preset be sure to assign an individual value for each green highlighted field
