Configuration button, to open the “IPSetup Configuration” window — Changing the IP address from, e.g. <0.0.0.1> to e.g. <169.254.52.133> — Changing the Network
Mask from, e.g. <0.0.0.0> to e.g. <255.255.0.0> — and clicking on the “Enable Static IP” button Now the controller’s and the computer’s IP addresses and Subnet masks
are in the same range and both devices can “talk” to each other. Computer’s: <169.254.52.132> <255.255.0.0> Controller’s: <169.254.52.133> <255.255.0.0>
WARNING! Never enter Network Mask (Subnet
masks) <0.0.0.0> or <255.255.255.255> as they are
not valid masks, and in the worst case may render
the controller or LAN device inaccessible.
