3.24.7 

The Left and Right arrow keys move the cursor beneath the digits of the address.  The
Up and Down arrow keys or the number keys can be used to modify the address.  Upon
completion, use the "FUNC/ENTR" key to enter the address shown and proceed to the
next parameter, “CLR” to restore the original setting, or “STATUS” to exit function 36
without saving any updated settings. 

3.24.8 

Pressing "FUNC/ENTR" on “Display/Setup Subnet Mask” allows the user to view and/or
change the Subnet Mask of the NTS-100 unit.  The format of the IP Address display is
shown here:

Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.240

(Example)

3.24.9 

The Left and Right arrow keys move the cursor beneath the digits of the mask.  The Up
and Down arrow keys or the number keys can be used to modify the mask.  Upon
completion, use the "FUNC/ENTR" key to enter the mask shown and proceed to the next
parameter, “CLR” to restore the original setting, or “STATUS” to exit function 36 without
saving any updated settings. 

3.24.10  Pressing "FUNC/ENTR" on “Display/Setup Default Gateway” allows the user to view

and/or change the Default Gateway of the NTS-100 unit.  The format of the Default
Gateway display is shown here:

Default Gateway:
255.054.000.033

(Example)

3.24.11  The Left and Right arrow keys move the cursor beneath the digits of the address.  The

Up and Down arrow keys or the number keys can be used to modify the address.  Upon
completion, use the "FUNC/ENTR" key to enter the address shown and proceed to the
next parameter, “CLR” to restore the original setting, or “STATUS” to exit function 36
without saving any updated settings. 

3.24.12  Pressing "FUNC/ENTR" on “Display/Setup Network Type” allows the user to view and/or

change the Network Type of the NTS-100 unit.  The format of the Network Type display
is shown here:

Network Type:
Ethernet II DIX

(Example)

3.24.13  The Up and Down arrow keys toggle the Network Type between “Ethernet II DIX”, and

“IEEE 802.3”. When the required type is shown, use the "FUNC/ENTR" key to enter the
Network Type and proceed to the next parameter, “CLR” to restore the original setting, or
“STATUS” to exit function 36 without saving any updated settings.

3.24.14  Pressing "FUNC/ENTR" on “Display/Setup Clock Accuracy” allows the user to view

and/or change the Clock Accuracy of the NTS-100 unit.  The format of the Clock
Accuracy display is shown here:
