Appendix A
Configuring a Windows
computer to support DHCP
This appendix explains how to configure a Windows computer to
support Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). All
HX50 and HX100 remote terminals come from the factory with
DHCP enabled. Therefore, computers attached to the remote
terminal, either directly or through a networking device, must
have DHCP enabled and set to obtain IP addresses automatically.
