6. The next step requires the unit’s assigned IP and its MAC
address. The MAC address is a group of six two-digit characters
(0-9 and A-F) found on the back of the REMOTE that may be
referred to as the HW address.
7. The next step adds the IP and MAC addresses to the ARP Cache
which allows direct communications with the instrument before
an IP is programmed into its Ethernet interface.
8. Type arp –s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn and press Enter .
Replace the x’s with the desired IP address, such as 192.168.0.10
or 10.10.0.15, and the n’s with the desired MAC address, such as
00-20-4a-8a-26-31. The IP address will be four segments total
with up to 3 digits per segment, each segment separated by a
period. Note that the MAC address segments are separated by
dashes (-), not periods.

9. Activate the REMOTE Ethernet interface by typing, telnet
xx.xx.xx.xx 1 (replace x’s with the IP address to be used for the

error but is required to establish communications.
