Network Setup
The following sections provide procedures for client PC and Gocator network setup.
DHCP is not recommended for Gocator sensors. If you choose to use DHCP, the DHCP server
should try to preserve IP addresses. Ideally, you should use static IP address assignment (by
MAC address) to do this.
Client Setup
To connect to a sensor from a client PC, you must ensure the client's network card is properly
configured.
Sensors are shipped with the following default network configuration:
Setting Default
DHCP Disabled
IP Address 192.168.1.10
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 0.0.0.0
All Gocator sensors are configured to 192.168.1.10 as the default IP address. For a dual-sensor
system, the Main and Buddy sensors must be assigned unique addresses before they can be used
on the same network. Before proceeding, connect the Main and Buddy sensors one at a time (to
avoid an address conflict) and use the steps in See
Running a Dual-Sensor System on page 45 to
assign each sensor a unique address.
