4.1 Find & Assign Static IP Address

This section covers all the steps necessary to setup your system on your

internal DHCP compatible LAN.

4.1.1 IP Address

The CNT-IP-2 device comes preconfigured for DHCP so they automatically

obtain an IP address when it is connected to the computer LAN.
It is always recommended that you set a static IP on each system in order to

guarantee it maintains that same IP address between system power cycles.

4.1.2 Find Current IP address

Before you can access the device on your browser, you need to know what

IP address has been assigned to it by your LAN.
Download and install the

Device Finder

utility available on Hall Research

Website. This software can run on both Windows and MAC computers.
Once installed, run the Device Finder program. It will scan your LAN and

locate any compatible Hall Research IP devices that are connected to your

LAN network
