Using the Console’s HiQnet Setup page to set up an IP 

configuration 

 
Press the 

MENU

 button, select the 

System

 tab, then the 

HiQnet

 tab to access the 

Setup page. 
 

Configuring the IP Address  

Ensure the console’s HiQnet port is connected to the HiQnet network, and use the IP 
Config and IP address controls to set up a valid IP address for the console.  
If you wish to set the IP address and subnet manually, set the IP CONFIG Vistonics 
control to ‘MAN’. Use the IP ADDRESS and SUBNET MASK Vistonics controls to 
enter a valid configuration and then press the ‘SET’ button within the IP CONFIG 
control. 

 
The available ranges of valid IP addresses are listed below: 
Note: Some IP addresses within the ranges show are not allowed due to conflicts 
with other parts of the Vi system – they will be greyed out and not available for 
selection. 
 
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 

  
If you are using a DHCP server to automatically configure the IP setup, set the IP 
CONFIG Vistonics control to ‘DHCP’. Wait for several seconds until an IP address 
appears in the IP ADDRESS Vistonics control fields.  
When a valid address is established you will also see it on the far left of the HiQnet 
page. 
 
At this stage, all the controls in the HiQnet Vistonics section will be greyed out, 
indicating that HiQnet is disabled.
