D.3.1 Preparing the OM-20 for Web Setup
The unit is shipped from the factory with specific IP defaults. The factory defaults are set to an
unreachable state to minimize any adverse effects to the user’s network. In order for the user to
change the IP addresses to an accessible address the user must first install the Reset Plug onto J2
that is supplied with the unit. This will change the IP network setting that the user can access.
