By default, during startup the WaveGuide system tries to obtain an IPV4 address by
searching the Local-Area-Network for a DHCP server.
If a DHCP server is available and the WaveGuide sensor completes the startup process, its
IPV4 address can be found using a Zeroconf browser such as Avahi or Bonjour.
If a DHCP server is not available, a temporary fixed IPV4 address can be set by connecting
the two reset poles in the sensors terminal compartment for 0.5 to 2 seconds. This will cause
the sensor to use the default IPV4 address 192.168.111.71 until it is rebooted allowing the
user to access and change the network settings to the desired fixed configuration.
Note
In order to access the user interface both the computer and the sensor must be on the
same IPV4 address subnet.
The WaveGuide sensor homepage contains three main sections (Dashboard, Configuration
and Status) as listed in Table 3.1.
