local network using HAI PC Access,
under Configure >> Network enter the
controller’s IP address:
(i.e. 192.168.0.101)
Local Network
Dynamic DNS
If the controller is connected to the Internet via a dynamic IP address, to locate and communicate with the controller from remote
locations over the Internet using HAI PC Access, you must subscribe to a Dynamic DNS (Domain Name Service). Dynamic
DNS is a service that maps your dynamic (changing) IP address to a static (permanent) hostname, allowing you to access your
Omni IIe controller over the Internet using your static hostname instead of an IP address.
A “client” program (typically provided by the Dynamic DNS provider) runs on a PC on your local network and is used to
automatically update your Dynamic DNS provider with your current IP address. Several router/switch manufacturers have
embedded a Dynamic DNS client into their router firmware. These devices work with several of the Dynamic DNS providers,
including both free and commercial services. These devices are especially beneficial because the router can be powered up all the
time, so the dynamic update is always current and is handled by a single device (the router/switch) in the local network. This
allows you to locate and connect to the Omni IIe controller without having a computer on the local network powered up and
running.
