This controls the dimming of the tubes.

IP Address
part 1
If you have WiFi connected, this will show the first digit of the 4
digit IP address. Usually this address starts with “192”. If you
are on a cable network, it might start with “10”.
Note:
The IP address is skipped if you do not have a WiFi
connection.
Example:
1:92
= “192”
IP Address
part 2
The second digit of the 4 digit IP address.
Note:
The IP address is skipped if you do not have a WiFi
connection.
Example:
1:68
= “168”
IP Address
part 3
The third digit of the 4 digit IP address.
Note:
The IP address is skipped if you do not have a WiFi
connection.
Example:
0:01
= “1”
IP Address
part 4
The last two digits of the 4 digit IP address. Put this together
with the value shown in IP Address parts 1,2 and 3 to give the
full address.
You can enter the whole value into your browser to connect to
the module. You must remove any leading “0” from the value.
If you receive “192.168.001.106”, you must enter this as
“192.168.1.106” into your browser address bar. Do not include
the leading zeros on any part of the address.
Example:
1:06
= “106”

This shows the number of impressions per second, which is the
refresh rate of the display. It varies a little based on the exact
workload, but is usually about 250 impressions per second.
