Network Setup

 

 

Configuring Network Settings Through the Front Panel

To configure network settings through the meter’s front panel, you must change

IP Boot Option from (the default) BootP to Manual.

Typically, your Network Administrator will provide you with the appropriate IP Address for the meter. The Subnet Mask and Gateway settings are only required if you have communications between multiple Ethernet networks and if subnetting is implemented.

CAUTION

Configuring the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway registers incorrectly can cause network disruptions. See your network administrator for more information.

Use the four Navigation buttons to edit the values of the network settings so that they match your system addresses.

As you configure the network addresses, the front panel automatically hides unnecessary leading zeroes from each three-digit grouping. The hidden leading zeroes appear (and disappear again) as you move the position of cursor across the network address.

89.123.40. 0 56

In the example above, the highlighted zero is hidden as soon as you change the position of the cursor.
