The Ethernet setup screen allows you to assign the meter a unique IP address so you can use software to access the meter’s data or configure the meter remotely through the Ethernet port. Before configuring the Ethernet parameters, make sure you obtain your meter’s IP address information from your network administrator or IT department.
