Connecting to the Network
Before connecting the ioibox unit to the network assure that the LAN/WAN supports the ioibox unit
Block IPs and will allow the each Block to communicate with remote workstations where the
ioimage-Monitor or ioimage HTML Edition Setup are used.
By default, ioiboxes are shipped with a factory set Block IPs and MAC addresses labeled on the
ioibox unit package and the automatic network IP configuration mode supporting DHCP
connectivity is disabled.
This means if the ioibox unit is connected to a DHCP network, the static IPs labeled on the ioibox
unit package will not be used.
