Setting Up a Basic System

To set up a CX23-R module with basic connectivity, perform the following steps:

  1. Connect the 1-KAB2115 power cable from the INPUT connector to a 10‑30 VDC power source. Alternatively, use the 1-NTX003 power supply.

NOTE
The green wire of the 1-KAB2115 cable must be insulated or tied to +VDC.

  1. Connect the 1-KAB2106 Ethernet cable from the HOST connector to the host PC. The host PC network settings must be compatible with the CX23‑R default IP address 192.168.100.101.
  2. Connect desired transducers to DIO, GPS, AUX and CAN ports using the appropriate sensor cables.
  1. Wait at least five seconds after supplying power to the unit.
  2. Press and release the power button. The green and blue LEDs turn on. Wait about 15 seconds for the unit to boot up.
  3. Open a web browser and navigate to the default IP address 192.168.100.101. If presented with a certificate warning, choose to proceed. The CX23-R web interface is displayed.
