Setting I/P Address

IPC-1-R comes with factory installed IP address 192.168.1.254 you may need to change this address.
Consult your Network Administrator to determine the appropriate IP address. The IP address can be set in any
of four ways:

Web Browser via the Set-up Page

Automatically from a DHCP Server

ARP-Ping

Dataprobe setip.exe utility


1. Setting the IP address using Web Browser

Access the IPC-1-R with the administrator credentials and select Setup, then IP. Enter the IP address, subnet
mask and gateway. For initial setup the computer accessing the IPC-1-R needs to be on the same subnet as
the IPC-1-R (have a 192.168.1.xx address)

To lock the settings, select the IP Mode: Static. This prevents additional changes to be made with either DHCP
or ARP.

Click Apply and then a Reboot button will appear. Click to Reboot. The new changes will take effect after
reboot.

2. Setting the IP address from a DHCP Server

A DHCP server will automatically assign an IP address (dynamic address) as well as Subnet Mask and Gateway
to the IPC-1-R. If you power up IPC-1-R with the IP Mode set to DHCP, the server will be able to assign an IP
address. Once an IP address is assigned, you must check with the DHCP server to see what address is
