Development Environment Setup with Static IP
It’s possible to establish a Compact 7 development environment with Static IP addresses. Here are
two scenarios for setting up the development environment using static IP addresses:
Local Area Network without DHCP Service
The development station and target device are connected to the same LAN or Ethernet Hub,
without DHCP service, as shown in Figure 3.

Direct Connection using Cross-Over RJ-45 Ethernet Cable
Connectivity can be established by attaching the target device to the development station
directly, using a cross-over RJ-45 Ethernet cable, as shown in Figure 4.

Static IP Addresses
Without DHCP service to assign IP addresses dynamically, the target device and development
station must be configured with appropriate static IP addresses in order to establish
connectivity. Both the development station and target device must be configured with static IP
addresses within the same subnet.
Refer to appendix G for more information about using static IP addresses.
