Regarding fieldpoint, why doesn't cFP show up under remote systems

[biom]

We have a cFP2000 that was configured on another computer last year which is now being tranferred to a different computer. Currently I am trying to install fieldpoint. Under remote systems, I do not see the cFPsystem device. When I right click remote systmes, I click on fieldpoint but I do not know the IP address to continue further. Is it possible that the switches on the Fieldpoint may be set wrong, such as the safe mode...or that the ethernet wiring may be wrong, although I am pretty sure this is okay...

Hi biom,

I'm assuming you're connecting your computer and the cFP-2000 directly, is that correct? If so, please make sure the settings and cable requirement in the following article are met:

Connecting a Fieldpoint Controller Directly to an Ethernet Card

You may want to reset the IP address of your controller (by setting the reset dip switch to on, power cycle the controller, flip switch back to off position, then power on system). You should then see the controller with an IP address of 0.0.0.0.

Thanks,
