3. Configuration
3.1 Ethernet Configuration
The Ethernet configuration of the VSA-31-IP must be correctly setup in order for the
end user to be able to communicate with the device across the network. Incorrect
configuration will result in the user not being able to communicate with the device.
The VSA-31-IP comes from the factory with a default configuration setup in the unit
as follows:
IP Address: ........................................................................192.168.123.199
Gateway:................................................................................192.168.123.1
Net Mask:...............................................................................255.255.255.0
If the configuration of the end users LAN is compatible with these default settings,
then the user is not required to make changes to the Ethernet Configuration.
If the configuration is not compatible, use the Hall Research DS Manager to change
the unit’s configuration.
Set the IP Address to any STATIC unused address available on the end-users
network. This IP Address of the VSA-31-IP must be in the same node as any
computer attempting to access the device. If the computer attempting to access the
device is on another network node, then the end-user is responsible for configuring
any network routers or switches necessary to allow access to the devices IP
