the IP address.

•
setip.exe program, available from Dataprobe’s web site
To set the IP address, the hardware (MAC) address must be known. This address is located on a label on on the
IPC-16-R printed circuit board. The syntax for the MAC address is: nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn

Setting the IP address using ARP
To set the IP address using ARP, connect the jack marked 10Base-T to your local Ethernet network and apply
power to the unit. The computer used to set the IP address must be on the same physical network as the IPC-16-
