Choose the Use the following IP address option, then set IP address to
192.168.123.1 and Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0. For this initial setup, Default
Gateway and the DNS Server entries can be left blank. Select OK, then OK again to
close both the Internet Protocol Properties and Local Properties windows.
Once the NIC settings are configured properly, you should be able to access the unit
by typing http://192.168.123.123 into the address bar of your web browser. If
you are setting up the unit for the first time, or if the unit has been reset back to
factory defaults via the network-reset button, the unit will require you to create an
Admin account and password before you can proceed.
Once you have created the Admin account and logged into it, the unit's default
Sensors page should come up by default. Navigate to the System tab, then the
Network page to configure the device's network properties. The unit's IP Address,
Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS settings can either be assigned manually, or
acquired via DHCP.
Note that the new settings will take effect instantly when the Save button is clicked, so
the browser will no longer be able to reload the web page from the 192.168.123.123
address and will probably display a "page not found" or "host unavailable" message.
This behavior is normal. Once you have finished configuring the unit's IP address,
simply repeat the steps above, and change the computer's Ethernet NIC card settings
back to the ones you wrote down prior to changing them, to restore its normal
network and internet settings.
