The rear panel Ethernet connector on the USP 507 can be connected to an
Ethernet LAN or WAN. This connection makes SIS control of the unit
possible using a computer connected to the same LAN.

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure B-1).
• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the USP 507.
• Patch (straight) cable — Connection of the USP 507 to an Ethernet LAN.

Default address
To access the USP 507 via the Ethernet port, you need the unit’s IP address. If the
address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the
actual numeric IP address can be determined using the ping utility. If the address
has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the USP 507
.
