‘Peer to Peer’ Connection
To allow direct (non-network) interaction between the web interface program
and any laptop or PC connected to it, a ‘Peer to Peer’ connection must first be
established. This requires disabling the ‘Proxy Server’ from the system, allowing
direct IP addressing (Internet Protocol - TCP/IP) between the laptop/PC and the
SN-W/E interface unit. The following instructions detail how to set the IP address
of the
SOLOnet
instrumentation (static addressing) from within a Windows XP
operating System and how to disable the ‘Proxy Server’ from ‘Internet Explorer’.

‘Subnet Mask’
to
255.255.0.0
