from its URL list).

Obtain either a Static IP for the Modero panel (from your System Administrator) or a DHCP
Address from the IP Settings of the System Settings page.
The
DHCP/Static
field (in the IP Settings section of the System Settings page) must be set to
DHCP
to get Dynamic IP information for the panel.

(from the Protected Setup page) to both save any changes and
restart the panel.
After power-up, press the grey Front Setup Access button for
3 seconds
to access the Setup
page.
Navigate to the

field (to set the connection Mode) until the choice cycles to the word

Select the

tab from the Workspace window.

within the Device Addressing dialog) is correctly assigned.
