Moving Vaisala Veriteq Devices

Q: I'm using vNet/Digi Devices to connect my Vaisala Ver-
iteq Devices to the network. I want to move one of my Vais-
ala Veriteq Devices from one location to another within the
same subnet. What do I need to do?

A:

If you've used a reserved or static IP address for your Device (as

recommended), here are the steps to follow:

1

Pause alarming on the Device (you may experience com-
munication alarms while performing these steps if you do not
pause alarming - see page 121).

2

Unplug the vNet or Digi Device from the network (with Vaisala
Veriteq Device still attached).

Note: You do NOT need to uninstall the Digi RealPort software

from the viewLinc Server machine. In fact, doing so will
potentially cause problems when you reattach the Digi
to the network.

3

Move the Vaisala Veriteq Device to another location.

4

Plug the vNet or Digi Device into the network again.

5

Resume alarming. viewLinc will reconnect with the Vaisala Ver-
iteq Device and allow you to see the Device in the Locations
Manager

window, Devices pane.

Q: I'm using vNet/Digi Device to connect my Loggers to the
network. I want to move my Device from one subnet to
another. What do I need to do?

A:

If you've used a reserved or static IP address for your vNet or

Digi Device (as recommended) and you're moving from one location
to another in a different subnet, there are several configuration
steps:

1

Pause alarming (you may experience communication alarms
while performing these steps if you don’t pause alarming – see
page121).
