After connecting all the SB in the network to a router, after few seconds it assigns an IP address to
all the MR3000SB.
The DHCP feature of the router makes sure your PC has acquired an IP address in the same
subnet and communication between MR3000SB and PC is possible. Now, you can simply enter the
IP address displayed on the LCD of the MR3000SB (inside the red box) in your Web browser.
Generally your workshop router should have the following features:
DHCP (DHCP = Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol – i.e. the router assigns the IP
addresses) feature
1 port to have Internet access (optional, but recommended e.g. for firmware upgrades),
WLAN or wired
3.1.2.
Wired connection without router
If you have a MR3000SB with LAN interface and you connect it directly to your computer, you must
then configure the IP address of your computer. The default IP address of the MR3000SB is
192.168.1.2. Therefore you must assign a static IP address to the LAN port of your computer, on
the same sub-network as the SB. For example, 192.168.1.3.
