2 Setting the Operating Environment

PC settings and web browser settings required for using a web browser to monitor air conditioner units and 
perform operations are explained in the following pages.

2-1 Setting the PC IP Address 

Set an IP address on the PC that enables GB-24A to connect via a web browser. 
For instance, if the GB-24A IP address is [192.168.1.1], the PC IP address will need to belong to the same 
system [192.168.1.101]. 
If the GB-24A is connected to an existing LAN, ask the LAN administrator to decide what PC IP address to use.

Note: When using a GB-24A dedicated LAN, it is recommended that the GB-24A main unit be given an IP address 

within the range [192.168.1.1] – [192.168.1.40] and the PCs connected to the GB-24A be given an IP address 
within the range [192.168.1.101] – [192.168.1.150]

(1) Click on [Control Panel] under [Start] to open the Control Panel. 

(2) In the Control Panel window, double click [Network and Dial-up 

Connections] and the Network and Dial-up Connections window will 
open. Double click on [Local Area Setting] and the [Local Area 
Connection Status] dialog will open. Click [Properties].

(3) In the [Local Area Connection Properties] dialog, click [Internet 

Protocol] to select it and click the [Properties] button.
