If you forgot or lost the IP address of SIA it can be restored to the default.

The front panel of the SIA module contains a button that resets the IP configuration on the X1 ethernet port to a default address 10.20.30.40
This functionality is necessary when the IP address of the interface is forgotten or lost, as it allows the user to fall back on default settings and connect again with no problems. 

To reset the IP address, open the hinged transparent front panel and locate a small hole marked Reset network. Insert a thin object (a paper clip or a needle) into the hole and press the button for approximately 3 seconds. When pushed, the red status LED will start to blink and SIA will restart.

Warning

Be very careful when pushing the button that the paperclip or other thin object doesn't slip and poke behind the button where it might damage the electronic components inside SIA.




Wait at least 30 seconds to let the system reinitialize. When the status LED stops blinking, the network configuration on X1 has been reset and a connection can be made with SIA using IP address 10.20.30.40


Success

IP address on X1 is now set to default 10.20.30.40
