Description
1Ensure the device is powered and the status LED is blinking
You can connect to the CT-E9 via a network or directly using your
PC or laptop to access the built-in web server.
Accessing the web server allows for extended parameter setup. It
also includes Live Data view allowing the user to validate the li
controller inputs and messages being received.
Factory Default IP: 10.100.1.150
2Set your computer to use a Stac IP other than the IP set for
the CT-E9.
3Connect an Ethernet cable to your PC and the other end to
the Ethernet port on your CT-E9.
4Your PC will now connect to a local area network (LAN)
and the Act LED on the Ethernet port will blink.
5Use a web browser to access the web server by entering the
device IP into the browser URL bar.
6Once connected to the web server, you will be able to access
the ‘Configuraon’ tab to program and setup the device.

Alternavely, if the unit IP is unknown and requires a reset to its factory
default then:
1. De-power the unit
2. Turn all DIP switches ON
3. Power the Unit
4. Log in to the Web server at 10.100.1.150
5. Once confirmed, revert all dip sengs as required.
