6.3.1 Setting Up a Temporary IP Address

Important: ProSoft Configuration Builder locates MVI69L-MBS modules through UDP broadcast
messages. These messages may be blocked by routers or layer 3 switches. In that case, ProSoft

Discovery Service is unable to locate the modules.

To use ProSoft Configuration Builder, arrange the Ethernet connection so that there is no router/

layer 3 switch between the computer and the module, OR reconfigure the router/ layer 3 switch to
allow routing of the UDP broadcast messages.

1 In the tree view in ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB), select the MVI69L-

refer to Chapter 2.)
