IP address assigned through DHCP or manually enter a static (fixed) IP

address for the card’s network connection:

a.To verify the DHCP-assigned IP address, go to page 13.

b.To manually enter a fixed IP address, go to page 16.

Section 4 Install the Driver Software

The steps you use to install the driver software depend on your operating system

(OS). This procedure provides instructions for installing driver software on a

Windows 7 OS.

Note: Windows 8 steps are basically the same as Windows 7, although the

dialog displays may differ somewhat.

Note: The PXGX UPS and PXGMS cards use the same driver.

Note: You can use either the Device Manager path or the Devices and Printers

path to browse for the driver software and install it. This procedure uses

the Device Manager.

To install the driver from the Device Manager:

1. Click Start in the Start bar. Type Device in the search box.

2. Select Device Manager from the list above the search box. The Device

Manager opens.

3. Locate RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget under either Other Devices or Network

Adapters (see Figure 5).

lIf you do not see RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget in either list, you do not have a

cable connected to the card. Connect the computer to the card. Go back to

Step 1.

lIf RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget is listed under Other Devices, the driver is not

installed. Go to Step 4.

lIf RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget is listed under Network Adapters, a driver is

installed already, but it may not be the most up-to-date driver. Go to Step 4.

and continue this procedure to ensure the most current driver is installed.
