their configuration. If the FTC470XET is to be connected to the computer network, in any
case, the EDP administrator in charge of must be consulted.

2. Enter the stipulated data of appropriate format into the edit field for IP addresses and net mask
(nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn).
3. Confirm your actions with the button "Save" or stop your actions with "Cancel".“
4. After saving the modified IP addresses, the protocol converter has to be restarted. Click "Restart".
After approximately 60 seconds, flashing LEDs on the device signal restart. Hence, the communica-
tion between the browser and the Web server is interrupted since the Web server can only be
accessed via the new IP address.
5. Enter the new IP address of the protocol converter into the address field and check whether the
internal Web server is accessible.

the communication with the protocol converter.
