Wireless DCP Owner’s Manual 8
3. Configuration
Key points for network configuration
1. All of the devices to be connected—that is, the MTX processor, the Wi-Fi access point, the smart device, and
the computer running MTX Editor—must have IP addresses from the same network (or subnet). If, for exam-
ple, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and the MTX processor’s IP address is 192.168.0.1, the smart device
should have an IP address in the form of 192.168.0.xx.
*: If using a Wi-Fi access point that is not also a router, set the IP address for accessing it.
2. If the Wi-Fi access point’s DHCP server automatically assigns IP addresses, be sure that any IP addresses set
statically for other devices are not duplicated. We recommend that you check the setting for the range of IP
addresses that can be assigned automatically.
Meanwhile, if the Wi-Fi access point’s default IP subnet is not the same as that of the MTX processor, an incor-
rect combination of settings (similar to that shown in 1. above) will result and normal operation will not be pos-
sible. Because the IP subnet automatically assigned to the smart device in such a case will also differ from that
of the MTX processor, it will not be possible to connect.
3. Two smart devices running Wireless DCP can be connected to each MTX processor. (However, only one
device can be logged into by an administrator password.)
4. Connect the MTX processor to the LAN connector of the Wi-Fi access point.
If you connect to a WAN (Internet) connector, the smart device will not be able to communicate properly with
the MTX processor.
