2800 according to SOP 4.
Installation with LAN (PC is connected to a network)
Connect Smartline PDA Detector 2800 to the network (switch, hub or wall
socket) via the standard Ethernet patch cable (blue).
Knauer stores a default IP address in the Ethernet-Link interface device
of the Smartline PDA Detector 2800. Consult your network administrator
for a unique IP address to integrate in your company's network. Most
likely, you will need to reconfigure the Ethernet-Link interface’s default
settings for IP address, along with subnet mask and gateway, to meet
your network’s specific needs.
In case the preset IP address (172.16.5.241) cannot be used please
change the default settings according to SOP 1 (see below).
