IP Address Switches
The unit’s IP address is 192.168.100.xx, with the last octet xx set with the rotary
decimal switches. For example: to set to 14, rotate x10 switch to 1 and x1 switch
to 4. Valid range is 01 to 99; 00 is not valid. (Set the IP address of your PC to
192.168.100.yyy, where yyy ≠ xx.)
