Changing the MW100 Fixed IP Address Setting
1. Turn OFF the power to the MW100, turn dip switch number 8 (only) OFF, then
turn the power back ON.
The MW100’s IP address and subnet mask are set to 192.168.0.10 and 255.255.255.0,
respectively.
2. Set the PC’s network settings to 192.168.0.xx, and the subnet mask to
255.255.255.0. (where xx is a number other than 10 from 1 to 254).
3. Type 192.168.0.10 in the browser to connect to the MW100. The MW100’s
settings are enabled to be changed.
4. Change the MW100 range, network, and other settings using the browser.
5. If a connection was made using IP address 192.168.0.10, turn OFF the power to
the MW100, turn number 8 of dipswitch 1 OFF (dipswitches 1 through 7 are all
ON), and then turn the power back ON. If you want to connect using a different
IP address, turn number 8 of dipswitch 1 ON (dipswitches 1 through 8 are all ON)
and then turn the power back ON.
The MW100 starts up using the settings entered in step 4 (including the network
settings).
Explanation
If you turn OFF the power to the MW100 main unit then turn it back ON with dip switch
number 8 turned OFF, the MW100’s address is set to 192.168.0.10. If you enter that
address (192.168.0.10) in your browser, you can connect to the MW100 main unit and
make changes to range and other settings. To do this, leave the MW100 IP address
unchanged, turn OFF the power to the MW100, turn dip switch number 8 ON, and turn
ON the power again. The address returns to the one set prior to 192.168.0.10.
If users are connected to the MW100 when settings are changed using the Address
Setting software, measurement and recording on the MW100 continues but monitoring
pauses and the address is changed.
Host Name
You can enter a name that makes it easy to identify individual MW100s using up to sixty-
three alphanumeric characters.
If you select Register host name on server, the host name is automatically registered
on the DNS server. However, the DNS server must support dynamic DNS. Consult your
network administrator for details.
Obtaining an IP Address Automatically
Select the check box to automatically obtain the IP address from the DHCP server. When
Obtain DNS information automatically is selected, the IP address of the DNS server and
domain name can also be obtained from the DHCP server. In this case, the domain name
is fixed to the one specified on the DHCP server. For details, consult with your network
administrator.
To check whether the IP address was obtained correctly each time, click the Change
button, wait a few moments, then click the Search button in the List display screen. If you
click the Change button immediately, the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
may be displayed as 0.0.0.0. If this happens, wait a moment, then click the Search button
again and check that the IP address was obtained correctly.
