"Configure LAN settings"
u
Use the RJ45 socket for Ethernet connection.
If a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server is available, the DHCP client can be
activated.
If the DHCP client is deactivated, a static IP address can be configured.
The IP address range of device and PC must match the subnet mask.

Configure a DNS server if necessary.
The device can independently send out ping commands,
thus allowing for confirmation that a particular host in a network can be reached. The status LED
provides visual information on the connection to the set ping address.
In case of a local connection, the host’s IP address, e.g. 192.168.0.10, can be used as ping address. If
an internet connection is required (e.g. when using a cloud), any domain can also be used as ping
address (e.g. www.ifm.com).
Time synchronisation requires an NTP server. If there is no NTP server, the time can be set manually.
w
If the gateway is disconnected for a longer period, the time has to be corrected in the
configuration menu.
