Front Bezel
The encoder has a detachable front bezel that snaps on top of the local control panel and
provides access to the reusable air filters. See
on page 33 for information about
cleaning the air filters.
2.9.2
Local Control Panel
The local control panel allows configuration of the initial network settings for the encoder.
From the front panel, you can set the encoder IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway,
and view the encoder MAC address.
