Configuration Using Instrument Front Panel
Configuration of the TCP/IP parameters via the front panel is the recommended
method for setting up the module’s LAN interface. On-board configuration is only
possible during the module’s start-up procedure.

TCP/IP settings.
6
To enter a new IP address, use the up/down arrow keys.
