 Overview
Configuring the HomeWorks® P5 processor to communicate over a network takes not only knowl-
edge of the HomeWorks system, but of networking as well. HomeWorks installers with limited net-
working knowledge are advised to contact a networking professional before attempting to connect
to HomeWorks processors via a network. This specification will help a HomeWorks installer commu-
nicate the P5 processor configurations to a network professional.

The HomeWorks installer will make any necessary changes to the P5 processor and the network
professional can make any necessary changes to the networking equipment. Use the worksheet at
the end of this document to record the P5 processor configuration(s).

This specification applies to the current (non-beta 1.22) or newer versions of the HomeWorks
IlluminationTM software.

Single Ethernet Port

• IEEE® 802.3 Auto-Sensing 10BaseT / 100BaseTX
• Female 8P8C “Computer RJ-45” socket
• Green Connect LED, Amber Activity LED
• Use Cat 5 cabling or better

Protocols Used
• TCP, UDP, IP, ARP, DHCP, ICMP, TELNET, FTP, NBNS

TCP / IP Settings
• DHCP or static* configuration <factory default = DHCP>
• IP Address*: <static or dynamic configuration>
• Subnet Mask*: < static or dynamic configuration>
• Gateway*: <static or dynamic configuration>
• Telnet Port: <factory default = 23>
• FTP Port: <factory default = 21>
• HTTP Port: <factory default = 80>
• Ping Response: Enabled <factory default = Enabled, can be Disabled>
• NetBIOS Name: <factory fixed to = HOMEWORKS>
• NetBIOS Name is case insensitive

* If DHCP is set to Disabled, the following are the default values:
IP Address: 192.168.250.<processor address = 1 through 16>
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 0.0.0.0

and Apple® SafariTM web browsers
• Requires web browser Cookies to be enabled
• Requires Java Script 1.2 or better to be enabled
• Requires web browser support for Cascading Style Sheets
• Display resolution should be 800 x 600 or better
• HTTP Port is user modifiable. <factory default = 80>
• Modifiable range for the port is 1 through 65535
• Only one processor in a multiprocessor system hosts Web Keypads
• Web Browser can use NetBIOS name or IP Address of HTTP enabled processor
• Web keypad access can be password protected
• Sixteen user definable web keypad user names and passwords
• The login names and passwords are limited to a maximum of 32 characters each
• The characters used for login and password are limited to characters: a-z, A-Z, 0-9
