The input panel opens with the current address.

You return to the previous dialog box with the new address.

Ethernet Network
Connections

The terminal has a built-in Ethernet driver. You can configure this Ethernet
information for your terminal:

IP address of terminal on network including link speed
Device name to identify terminal on network
Username and password to access network resources

Set the Ethernet IP Address for the Terminal

Some networks automatically assign IP addresses to Ethernet devices if DHCP is
enabled. If DHCP is not enabled, you can manually enter an IP address.

IMPORTANT

FactoryTalk View ME Station does not recognize an installed 2711P-RN20
Ethernet module. View and manually configure the module’s IP address from
the control panel by using Network and Dial-up Connections.
