• If IP Address Type is set to Static, enter an IP address compatible with
your LAN here. Also enter a netmask and default gateway address in the
following two parameters. Click Apply when you are ready to apply all three

Netmask -
Netmask determines the subnet mask to be used for TCP/IP
networking.
• Enter a subnet mask compatible with your LAN. This is only needed for
Static IP configurations. The factory default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0
• If IP Address Type is set to DHCP, the Subnet Mask is set by the DHCP server
and cannot be changed by the user.
Default Gateway -
Default Gateway determines the gateway or router used on
your LAN for TCP/IP networking.
Without a properly configured default gateway (whether you have a router/
gateway or not), your IP Mini-Converter will be unable to see other IP Mini-
Converters on the network, although you may still be able to control this IP
Mini-Converter via a web browser. Also, without a proper gateway defined,
the discovery feature on the Network web page will not list other units on the
network.
• Enter a default gateway or router address. This is only needed for Static IP
configurations. The factory Default Gateway is 192.168.0.1.
• If IP Address Type is set to DHCP, the Default Gateway is set by the DHCP
server and cannot be changed by the user.

Address.
