Reading the 20-62 IP address
To read the IP address assigned to the 20-62 by a DHCP server, read the configuration from the
20-62 and open the TCP/IP tab. The new address will be in the Static or Current IP address field.
You can use this address as long as it remains valid on the network.
Finding your PC’s IP address
If you are using the 20-62 in client mode, you will need to know the IP address of your PC so the
20-62 can connect to it.
You can find your IP address in “Windows Settings” under “Network and Internet” -> “Ethernet”
(on the side bar). Click on your network name to see your Ethernet settings, or
Enter “ipconfig” from the windows command line to get the IP address of your PC.
Note that your PC will likely use a DHCP server to obtain its IP address. You may need to reserve
a static address for your PC too.
Checking if an IP address is active
You can test if a device is using an IP address by using the “ping” command from the command
line. e.g. “ping 192.168.1.100” If this returns a response, then a device is using that address.
Testing an Ethernet connection using Sacoto
Sacoto can be configured to connect to the 20-62 over Ethernet. This can be used to test the
Ethernet connection, and to configure everything except the Ethernet connection itself.
To connect to the 20-62 using Sacoto:
the 20-62 must be configured as a TCP/IP server,
the Static IP address and port number must be entered into the Sacoto connection
settings,
the Sacoto connection “interface” must be set to TCP/IP.
See the “Sacoto connection settings” section above.
