Configuring the DeviceMaster UP

Configuring the Network Settings

Use the following procedure to change the default network settings on the
DeviceMaster UP for your network.

Note: Technical Support advises configuring one new DeviceMaster UP at a time

to avoid device driver configuration problems. If you want to configure
multiple DeviceMaster UPs using the
Assign IP to Multiple Devices option, see

Configuring Multiple DeviceMaster UPs Network Addresses

on Page 31.

The following procedure shows how to configure a single DeviceMaster UP
connected to the same network segment as the Windows system. If the
DeviceMaster UP is not on the same physical segment, you can add it manually
using

Adding a New Device in PortVision DX

on Page 31.

If you have not done so, install PortVision DX (

Installing PortVision DX

on

Page 12).

2.

Start PortVision DX using the PortVision DX desktop shortcut or from the Start
button, click Programs > Comtrol > PortVision DX > PortVision DX.

query.
