)NSTALLATION

Follow these instructions to set up your smart switch.

•

Prepare a PC with an Ethernet adapter and a CD ROM drive.

•

Before proceeding with the smart switch installation, familiarize yourself with the 
contents of the Resource CD, especially the manuals.

1.

Power on your PC, let the operating system boot up completely, and log in as needed. 

2.

Insert the Resource CD for the Smart Switch Series into your CD-ROM drive. The 
Resource CD Welcome screen will display.

3.

Click Install the SmartWizard setup utility. 

4.

Follow the links on the CD and the setup utility prompts to complete the installation 
of the Smartwizard Discovery utility. 

5.

Click OK when done. 

Note: These instructions assume you are using DHCP in your network. If you are using 

static IP addressing in your network, configure the switch IP address before 
connecting it to your network. In the absence of a DHCP server, the switch will 
default to 192.168.0.239 for its IP address. 

To configure the switch before connecting it to your network, set up the PC with an IP 
address in the 192.168.0.x subnet, and connect the PC to the switch. Then, use the 
Smartwizard Discovery utility as illustrated below to configure the switch.

1.

Connect the smart switch to your network.

2.

Power on the switch. 

3.

Verify that the PC with the Smartwizard Discovery is on the same subnet as the 
switch. 

1.

Double click the Smartwizard Discovery icon 

 on your desktop or in Windows 

Start menu Programs to run the utility and view this screen.

2.

Click Discover to find your switch in the network.

The Smartwizard Discovery utility finds the switch and displays its MAC Address, IP 
Address, and model number. If you cannot configure your switch, verify that the 
cable connections are secure, that the IP address configuration of the PC is in the 
same subnet as the switch, and click the Discover button.
