Follow these instructions to set up your smart switch.
Prepare to Install 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.
First, Install the Smartwizard Discovery Utility on a
PC

inserting the Resource CD.
3. Run the Setup program to install the Smartwizard Discovery.
4. The Installation Wizard will guide you through.
Next, Connect Your Smart Switch in the Correct
Order
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 each PC to an RJ-45 network port on the Switch front panel. Use
category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45
connector to make these connections.
2. Connect the smart switch to your network.
3. Power on the switch.
4. Verify that the PC with the SmartWizard GearDiscovery utility is on the same
subnet as the switch.
Now, Configure the Switch with the SmartWizard
1. Run SmartWizard from the Windows Start menu Programs.
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.
