dw230 savvyPanel® touch operator interface is ready to run out of the box, but the installer must refer to the installation manual included with the device to ensure correct installation of the hardware. This guide describes the setup and use of its various software features.
This guide assumes a working knowledge of drive.web® technology. Please refer to the other guides in the savvy® user manual: Getting Started, Design and Overview, Access Control.

dw230 Contextual Menu
Touch the drive.web icon in dw230 Window Title Bar
dw230 Network Settings
New drive.web devices ship with unique IP addresses in the 10.189/16 subnetwork. The last two octets are derived from the device's serial number or MAC ID. The six-octet serial number always starts with 0-4-bb-x. The last two octets are used to assign the as-shipped IP address; Example, if the serial number is 0-4-bb-00-1a-2b, 1a is converted from hexadecimal to decimal, 26. 2b, similarly, is 43, decimal. The as-shipped address is 10.189.26.43.
Set device IP address, router address, subnet mask, and SNTP network time server address using savvy in the same way as any other smarty® or speedy® drive.web device. Please see that section in the Getting Started Guide for more information.
- It is possible to set dw230's real time clock using savvy via the dw230 Contextual Menu, but SNTP network time servers provide the best solution, where possible.
