pages within the altered field.

DHCP will register the unique MAC Address (factory assigned) on the panel and
once the communication setup process is complete, reserve an IP Address, Subnet
Mask, and Gateway values from the DHCP Server.
This information can be found in either the: Workspace- System name > Define
Device section of your code (that defines the properties for your panel), or in the
Device Addressing/Network Addresses in the Tools > NetLinx Diagnostics dialog.
Check with your System Administrator for a pre-reserved Static IP Address assigned
to the panel. This address must be obtained before Static assignment of the panel
continues.
