10. A Wi-Port entry should appear in the table on the right,
denoting that a device has been detected.
11. If more than one Wi-Port entry appears, DeviceInstaller has
detected several devices.
12. For every detected device, the program shows the Hardware
Address (i.e. the MAC address) and the IP address it is currently
using. If you are using a wireless router with a DHCP server, or
an access point connected to a network with a DHCP server, the
device will use DHCP to assign it an address. Otherwise, a
random address will be chosen automatically.
Note: Automatic random addresses all begin with 169.254. The
CD24 will choose a different one every time it is power cycled
or rebooted.
13. The address of the CD24 may be shown in red with the status
Unreachable. If this happens, the sensor and PC cannot
communicate because they are not on the same subnet. Click
Assign IP to start the IP configuration wizard. Follow the
instructions in the wizard to set the IP address, or configure
DHCP if you are using a DHCP server. When you have finished,
press F5 or use Device > Search from the menu system to find
the sensor with its new IP address.
Note: The IP address of the digitiser must have be on the same
subnet as the computer you want to connect to. The LAN
setting on the DeviceInstaller device tree identifies the IP
address of your computer. The first three number groups
typically need to be the same on all devices (digitisers and
computer).
14. If you want to configure the CD24 to use a static IP address, use
the Assign IP wizard as above and click Search again.
