8 ArmorPoint EtherNet/IP Adapter, Series A

When the switches are set to a valid number, the adapter’s IP address
will be 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx represents the number set on the
switches). The adapter’s subnet mask will be 255.255.255.0 and the
gateway address will be set to 0.0.0.0. When the adapter is reading the
network address set on the switches, the adapter will not have a host
name assigned to it or use any Domain Name System.

If the switches are set to an invalid number (i.e., 000 or a value greater
than 254), the adapter checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If DHCP is
enabled, the adapter asks for an address from a DHCP server. The
DHCP server will also assign other Transport Control Protocol (TCP)
parameters.

If DHCP is not enabled, the adapter will use the IP address (along
with other TCP configurable parameters) stored in nonvolatile
memory.
