The Locate Hardware dialog will scan the network and list available units with DHCP IP addresses. Select the xControl unit to assign a static
IP address to and click the Properties button. To assign the xControl a static IP address, select “Use the following IP address” and enter the
appropriate IP Address, Subnet mask and Gateway. Click OK when finished. Next, back in the locate hardware dialog, ensure the xControl
device is highlighted and click “Select Hardware Unit” to connect the selected xControl on the network to the xControl in the SymNet
