5.2 CAT-32 IP Setup Tool
MAC Address Detection
Connect the CAT-32 IP to your computer either via a local network, or via USB. If you use a
USB connection Windows will detect the CAT-32 IP as a ‘Removable Disk’ and an appropriate
drive letter will be assigned.
Start the setup tool from the CD ROM.
A window opens as shown below:
On the upper left corner, the MAC address of the CAT-32 IP is displayed. To re-detect the MAC
address, press the Refresh Devices button. The displayed MAC address should correspond to
the printed address shown on the label on the base of the IP module.
On the lower right corner of the window, there are two buttons: Query Device and Setup
Device. Press the Query Device button to display the preconfigured values of the network
configuration. The values are displayed in the text fields located above. If necessary, adjust the
network settings to your needs. To save the changes enter a user login and a password (see
Authentication, below) and then press the Setup Device button.

a DHCP or BOOTP server. From the drop down list select either DHCP or BOOTP. If you
select NONE, the IP auto configuration is disabled and you should manually input the following
network settings:
IP address
The IP address the CAT-32 IP uses.
Net mask
The net mask of the connected IP subnet.
Gateway address
The IP address of the default router for the connected IP subnet. If you do not have a default
router, enter 0.0.0.0.
