Notes:
• Generally, the IP address is temporarily changed on the computer to be compatible with the con-
troller for initial setup. The IP settings are then changed on the controller to match the network
it will be accessed/operated through. See Sections 3 and 4 for changing the IP settings on the
local computer, and Section 7 for changing the IP settings on the controller.
• The
Default Router is another IP setting, which provides a gateway for the controller to operate
over a network. The Default Router setting can be disregarded if the controller will not be us-
ing a network. Contact the network administrator for assistance in changing the IP settings for
