same Ethernet network through a network switch or other LAN infrastructure.
2. Manually configure the computer's IP address to be a
unique
address on the same IP subnet as the
device. For example 192.168.2.10. The Netmask should be 255.255.255.0. The Gateway doesn't
matter for this purpose, but could be set to 192.168.2.1.

ENTER. The web page interface should load. If the web page interface fails to load, double check the
computer's network settings and physical Ethernet connections. In the event that the IP address of the
device is unknown, refer to the

1.4.2 Network Settings
Network settings can be changed on the Config tab of the Web Page Interface. This includes DHCP enable, IP
address, Netmask and Gateway settings. DHCP should only be used for assigning specific network settings
from a central DHCP server or when assigned IP addresses can be determined, otherwise configuring the device
via its IP address would be prevented if the IP address is unknown. After changing network settings, click the
Save button and then click the Reboot button to restart the device. Refer to the
section for more details.
In the event that the device's IP address is unknown, refer to the

setting on the Config Tab of the Web Page Interface defines the IP address of the
remote router which the panel interface will control. This defaults to 192.168.2.60 on remote panels, which is
the default IP address of Matrix Switch Corporation routers.
