Accessing OTMC 100 from a Computer
OTMC 100
automatically powers up after supply voltage is provided via Ethernet (PoE). The LED
lights up green when the device is ready for operation.
After that, a network IP address is assigned automatically in order to connect the device to the
network. If a DHCP server is available in the network, the IP address is assigned by the DHCP server.
If not,
OTMC 100
automatically selects and assigns a link-local IPv4 and IPv6 address by itself.
