Configuring Static IP Address on Your Laptop
If the current IP address at any device (site server and dispensers) does not match the IP
scheme that needs to be used, follow the instructions to change the IP address on your laptop
to the required IP address scheme.
You need to have your laptop connected to the device with an Ethernet network
connection (CAT-5 cable).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For example, if the required dispenser IP scheme is 10.5.48.71, 10.5.48.72, and 10.5.48.73,
and there is a dispenser (1 and 2) with an IP address of 10.128.46.71 (side 1) and 10.128.46.72
(side 2), you may need to change that IP scheme.
Note: This procedure may vary slightly depending on your laptop’s operating system.

connect to other dispensers.
