3.5 IP Address
Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP
address. This IP address is used to establish a connection to the Meter. Every
computer using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address which is divided
into two portions, the network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer
on the same network uses the same network ID. At the same time, all of them
have a different host ID. For more details about the IP address see Appendix B.
3.5.1 Default IP Address
The Meter is shipped with a default IP address of 192.168.1.200 and Subnet
Mask of 255.255.255.0. If you are going to use a Web browser or Telnet
program to access the Meter using its default IP address, make sure that the PC
from which you’re establishing the connection has an IP address that is in the
same range as the Meter’s IP address (192.168.1.x, where x can be any number
from 1 to 254). See Section 3.5.2.
Your PC’s IP address cannot
be the same as the Meter’s IP address.
You also need to make sure that your PC’s Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. This
is a good way to access the Meter over the network and make any configuration
changes needed. If 192.168.1.200 is already in use on your network, use an
Ethernet crossover cable between your computer and the Meter to change the IP
address or any other settings within the Meter.
