The easiest way to set up your system for use with a static IP address is to:
1.
In the router configuration software, reserve an IP address for the picomotor
controller. Try to reserve an IP address outside of the range used by the DHCP server
because this will eliminate the possibility of address conflicts now and in the future.
2. Set the picomotor controller to use static IP addressing by sending the “IPMODE 0”
command.
3. Set the 8743-CL controller’s static IP address to the reserved value by sending
“IPADDR xx.xx.xx.xx” where xx.xx.xx.xx is the reserved value.
4. Send “GATEWAY xx.xx.0.0” (where the first tow octets match those of the IPv4
Address).
5. Send “NEWMASK 255.255.255.0”
6. Send the “SM” command to the controller to save the information entered.
7. Send the “RS command to reset the controller so that all entered information will take
effect.
