Network address settings section
Note!
These settings apply to the wireless connection to the router. We recommend using
DHCP. The IP address is obtained automatically if the Solar-Log™ is connected to an In-
ternet router with the DHCP service enabled. After saving and the automatic restart, the
new IP address is displayed.

entered automatically:
IP address, Subnet mask, Gateway and DNS server

way). In this case, the IP address of the DNS server is entered here. The alternate DNS server can also be
configured manually from the
