Setting the Humidifier IP Address

In order to communicate on a Local Area Network (LAN), the humidifier must be assigned an IP
Address. By default the humidifiers will acquire an address automatically through DHCP. If your
network has DHCP disabled, you prefer to set a static IP address, or you are making a direct
cable connection, the humidifier configuration must be adjusted.

Perform these steps to find display or change the IP address of the humidifier. Be sure to note
the IP address of the humidifier as you will need to enter it later into your web browser to access
the Remote User Interface.

1. Power on the humidifier and wait until it has booted to the home screen.
2. Press Menu on the touchscreen.
3. Enter the Service password 0335 and press the ✓(checkmark button) to commit.
4. Select Configuration.
5. Select Comms Menu.
6. Press the ↓ arrow to scroll down to Network Parameters.
7. Available settings are described in Table 1: IP Address Settings. Press ✓ after entering

values to commit to change.
