Enter a File name for the Relation List (for example, Control System
Configuration), and click Save.

You can leave the Save as type at the default setting: Bootp

You can then open the file containing the Relation List at a later session.

When DHCP is enabled (factory default Enabled), the unit will request its
network configuration from a DHCP/BOOTP server. Any configuration
received from a DHCP server will be stored in non-volatile memory.

The unit will try to obtain the same IP address from the DHCP server. If the
server is not present (e.g., server fails to power up), the unit will use the IP address
it previously received from the server. The DHCP timeout = 30 s.

Be cautious about using an unmanaged switch to assign the IP address.

A DHCP

server typically assigns a finite lease time to the offered IP address. The possibility
exists that the ArmorStart LT would be assigned a different IP address which
would cause a stop in communication with the controller.
