3.3 Editing the CFG file
You can use any text editor, such as "Notepad" to edit the wattcp.cfg file. The
simplest method for getting started is to download the default file from the web or
from the module itself. Once on the PC, open the file in the text editor and alter
as required for your network and application.
3.3.1 Comment Records and Editing Hints
Any record that begins with the '#' or a ';' character is considered to be a
comment record. These records can be placed anywhere in the file. These lines
are ignored in the file and can be used to provide documentation within the
configuration file. Liberal use of comments within the file can ease the use and
interpretation of the data in the file.

my_ip= This is the IP addresses assigned to the unit.
