Installation Guide
AT-HDR-SW-52
The AT-HDR-SW-52 is shipped with DHCP enabled. Once connected to a network, the DHCP
server (if available), will automatically assign an IP address to the unit. If the AT-HDR-SW-52
is unable to detect a DHCP server within 15 seconds, then the unit will use a self-assigned IP
address within the range of 169.254.xxx.xxx/16. If this occurs, refer to the AT-HDR-SW-52
User Manual for more information.
Use an IP scanner, along with the MAC address on the bottom of the unit, to identify the unit on
the network. If a static IP address is desired, the unit can be switched to static IP mode.
IP Conguration
Switching the IP mode using the Front Panel
1. Make sure the AT-HDR-SW-52 is powered.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable between the LAN port of the AT-HDR-SW-52 and the Local Area
Network (LAN).
3. Press and hold the POWER button for approximately 15 seconds. Release the POWER
button once all the front-panel LED indicators begin to ash. The number of ashes will
indicate the currently selected IP mode. Refer to the table, below.
