Getting Started
•
PC with any text file editing software program (i.e., Notepad, Notepad++, or
Wordpad)
Wordpad tends to display the settings in an easier to read layout than
Notepad
•
USB 2.0 Mini-A cable (only required for systems containing an AM4022
Processor)
(Two USB cables are shipped with the MPA systems containing the MCH card
and AM4022 Processor; a USB 2.0 Mini-A connector type for use with the
AM4022 Processor, and a USB 2.0 Micro-B connector type for use with the MCH
card)
Changing the Processor's IP Address with USB Flash

saved to a USB flash drive's root directory.
a. The mpa_ipconfig file is a text file, but it does not have a file extension.
b. Do not rename the mpa_ipconfig file, nor give it a file extension.

support email, then extract the mpa_ipconfig file out of the .zip file
before editing it.
2. To configure the MPA system for a Static IP Address:

appropriate settings for your network.
