Issue
LonMaker or Vista can not see the L-IP router. It can be configured with Internet Explorer so it must be powered and communicating on the ethernet port.
Environment
- Vista Workstation
- LonMaker
- Loytec L-IP router
Cause
The L-IP device will communicate on the IP channel immediately out of the box without any configuration. However, to talk properly with the LNS and Vista servers, there are extra steps to perform.
Resolution
- Go to Start > Control Panel > Lonworks/IP Channels
- Enter the IP and name of the computer there.
- This will enable the router to communicate as an LNS port.
