Start the device and find it in the network

  • Establish the power supply to the device.
  • Connect your PC and the Kentix device to the same network and adjust the PC’s network settings if necessary.
  • The device receives an IP address via DHCP from your network. At the same time the fallback address 192.168.100.22x (see sticker on the product) is active in factory settings.
  • Find the device in the network: You can determine the address assigned by DHCP on your switch or by means of software such as “LanScan” for MacOS or “Advanced IP Scanner” for Windows. Search for a MAC address with“70:82:0e:xx:xx:xx”. Typically, the associated device name will also be“Kentix-72820e……“, with the last 6 digits in MAC and name assigned individually for their device.

Search results using the example “LanScan” (MacOS)
  • Call the determined IP address with a browser of your choice (“http://Device-IpAddress”).

Configuration with KentixONE

The device is configured via the web browser in KentixONE. The device must be accessible to the central KentixONE instance on the network side. Depending on the device type, a communication key and the IP address or DHCP name of the central KentixONE instance must also be set on the device (MultiSensors, AccessManager, SmartPDU). IP cameras or IO modules, on the other hand, can be integrated directly into KentixONE.

All information about the software can be found in the KentixONE section and the associated documentation.

Before starting the configuration, make sure that the software on all network-compatible Kentix devices is up-to-date. The version status must match on all devices.
You can perform a software update for your KentixONE main instance and all connected satellites at any time via “System – Update”.
