Network Setup
SETUP>System configuration>Network setup
Network setup has a Manual and Auto setting. The
Auto setting is simplest in that the MX180 will be
assigned an IP address from your router and all the
pertinent information will automatically be filled. If
you are familiar with networks, you may prefer to
assign an IP address. The advantage to this is that
you will have a fixed unchanging IP address of your
choosing.
Choosing Manual setup will allow you to edit the IP
Address, Subnet mask, Gateway and DNS fields.
The assigned IP address of the MX180 can be
found by pushing the DISPLAY MODE button (see
“Display Mode” on page 13).
Select Save to keep any changes.
Network information is displayed on this page
including the MX180’s Hardware (MAC) Address
and IP information.
