The IP adress can be changed to fit any other local network. When changing the IP address
the connection from the PC to the service tool may be lost. The IP address can be read out
from the VHF radio via menu 4.6.2.3.
The network settings on the computer must be set to same logical net as the Service tool.
The node number must be set differently from the Service tool. The subnet mask must be the
same.
If full flexibility to service a VHF 5000 series system on multiple different networks is required
it might be worthwhile installing a separate net card in the PC. Alternatively a USB to
Ethernet converter will provide unique access possibilities to SB5006, without considering
changing the setup on the PC from time to time.
5.3.1 How can I see or change the PC IP Address?
Example 1
The following example shows a typical user with a PC used as a combined tool in the office,
and in out of office service situations. The PC is configured with a single PC card. The
browser is set up using auto-detection of IP address resolving with a proxy-server when
operating in the office environment. The browser settings will need to be changed as
described in the following:
