12.Disconnect the standard Ethernet patch cable from the meter (if desired) and disable the Mark III DHCP server by setting the meter CPU Board switch S2-2 to the OPEN position (up away from the board).

At this point, the Mark III meter will only communicate at the user-configured IP address and will not reply at the DHCP default address of 192.168.135.100.

13.In Daniel MeterLink, edit the meter directory record established above so that the Ethernet connection uses the user-specified Ethernet settings. If desired, set the Direct and/or Modem connection settings to the user-specified values.
