Have a look at this pdf. It mentions setting the IP address and should point you in the right direction.

ImageOK well after walking through that video I have it all communicating with acorn up and operational. But now that I’ve completed all the Centrino wizards and everything from that video it only allows me to move any one of the exercises in a single direction till it stops and then it pulls up drive fault code 931 which I reset it and then I can try another access but then it just pops that code right back up

Yeah no matter what I do in any access it will make the movement and then it sends the 9031 drive fault

Chances are it has something to do with drive enble signals and your C86 board. There are many threads going over this common problem.
Cheers,

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

OK I guess I left to find these videos or threads that talk about it, I basically went through the set up directly off of Marty’s video and sent the jumpers like he said, halfway through doing it once I got communication to acorn my axis is moved with no problem, so I continued through his instructions and completed everything he did and now I get movement but calls for an error and a reset every time

OK so I quickly read through some of the posts and I found that switching input number five from normally closed to normally open fixed the situation but is that how it supposed to be or is there something else I need to figure out down the road??
