The ATM IP information is set using the menu found at:

ATM TCP Setup
This menu is only active if you have the communication mode set to TCP
[See page 3.24]
These settings will be dependant on the network connection available at the location where the
ATM is deployed. It may be necessary to contact the ISP or Network provider for the location to
determine how this should be set.
TCPIP Mode: DHCP or STATIC IP
NOTE
: In almost all cases you will choose DHCP when setting up you machine on the internet.
Uses for STATIC include ATMs on corporate networks (casino, hotel, store chain) or some
wireless devices. Check with the locations IT staff, or the instructions provided with your wireless
device for assistance.
In typical installations, for example a store or location with a DSL or broadband internet
connection that you are tapping into, you will always use DHCP mode.
Change IP Address: Enter the ATM IP address here (for static IP) or this field will automatically
populate if DHCP is used to obtain an IP automatically.
Subnet Mask and Gateway: These values will be provided by your ISP/Network Provider and
refer to the Router that you’ll be connecting to.
Ping to Gateway: This is a test which will ‘ping’ the Router and verify communication between the
ATM and the network. If this test fails, then the ATM will not reach the host.
Ping to Host: This test attempts to verify communication with the IP address or URL that is
programmed in the ‘Processor IP Address’ menu. Note that most processors or switches do not
allow ‘pinging’ for security reasons.
