Color Touch Screen Data Logger Operations Manual
To change the IP address of the Color
SDS Data Logger, first shut down the
SDS software. This requires
administrator access.

(requires administrator access)
Next, click Start, Settings, and Network
and Dial-up Connections ( Figure 5 ).
Figure 5 - Accessing the Network and Dial-Up
Connections
Double tap on the connection for the Color
SDS touch screen device (in the example,
it is called “SMSC91181”). An Ethernet
Driver settings window will appear, giving
you the ability to specify an IP address. To
do so, click the “Specify an IP address”
radio button (see Figure 6 ). Then enter an
IP address manually. Make sure that the
IP address does not conflict with another
IP address already assigned on the
network.
You will also need to add a Subnet Mask
and a Default Gateway. The subnet mask
is usually already determined for the
network. A common subnet mask is
255.255.255.0; however, check with the
network administrator to be sure. The
default gateway is usually the address of
the network router or other device that is
responsible for routing network traffic.
