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