24.1.3. DHCP-Server in the net
A DHCP-server in the net automatically assigns IP-addresses to
all devices in the network. ECoS checks by default during each
start up procedure if such a server is available and requests a
valid IP-address. All you have to do is read out the assigned
IP-address and enter it in the address line of the internet browser.
• Open the set-up menue of ECoS.
• Open the network set-up as per Figure 117.
• Make sure the tick at “Obtain IP-Address via DHCP-Server” is
set.
• Read and remember the “IP-Address”. The figure will be needed
for the next step.
24.2. Web interface
• To establish a connection with ECoS start your Internet browser.
• Type in the upper command line: http://IP-Adresse
IP-Address means in this case the address assigned to ECoS.
Confirm with “Enter”.

http://192.168.1.2

24.2.1. Firmware update
First save your data as per chapter 24.2.2 before you start a
firmware update.
This enables you to update the operating software of your
ECoS. First you must download new firmware packets from
our website and save it locally on your PC. You will find the
latest version of our software at:
http://www.esu.eu/download
You will only find the firmware downloads once you have established
an access account to our website by providing the
serial number of your command station. We strongly recommend
applying for such an account otherwise you will not be
able to benefit from new functionalities and bug fixes for your
command station. How you can gain access is described in
chapter 27.
Update your firmware only if you want to upgrade relevant errors
or new functions that you absolutely need. Never change
the configuration of a system that is stable and works without
problems. Before you install updates do a data back-up!
