Locating the Unit IP address
The IP address of the unit is required to access the webpages. It can be
identified from the configuration menu pages using the local monitor, press
the MENU button on the IR Remote Control and navigate to the System
Settings->System menu to find the DHCP assigned IP address.
Note: The unit can be connected to a DHCP network environment via
the 15 way connector to allow an IP address, subnet mask and
default gateway to be automatically be allocated by the network
DHCP Server (DHCP is enabled by default).
Note:
If a DNS (Domain Name Server) address is not to be used, it is
strongly advised that a fixed IP address be assigned (a DHCP
assigned address can change without notification i.e. following
power failure).
A fixed IP address can be assigned via the Network Settings-
>Network menu.
For information on locating the unit’s IP address via a PC and serial port
connection, refer to Appendix D in the installation manual.
Default DNS Address
It is recommended that a DNS (Domain Name Server) address be
configured. Assigning a recognisable name can help a remote user to
locate the unit.
If no System name is allocated to the unit, the default DNS address will
be:
machine serial number.yourdomain.com
•
is displayed in the System
menu page and also on the
underside of the unit.
•
is the name assigned to your
DNS network.
The default DNS address can be renamed via the Network Settings ->
Network menu. Following renaming, the DNS address will be:
yourname.yourdomain.com
•
’ yourname‘
is the name assigned via the
Network menu.
•
is the name assigned to your
DNS network
Note:
To activate an assigned DNS address, it will be necessary
to reboot the unit. The unit can be rebooted via System
Settings:>Maintain-> Reset.

Settings->Time and Date.
