Configuring IP Settings for Communication
Before attempting to modify any computer settings, contact the Information Technologies
department of your business, if available. Some computer accounts may have restricted
permissions to overcome before any changes are allowed to be made to TCP/ IP settings.
At the PC:
1. Power up the PC and log into your Windows® operating system.
2. Click Start, then select Control Panel.
3. There are (2) two views settings possible when using Windows® 7:
•
In Category View, click Network and Internet, then click View Network Status and tasks
under Network and Sharing Center.
•
In Icon View, click Network and Sharing Center.
4. Click the Change adapter settings in the left hand column.
5. Click Local Area Connection and select Properties.
6. In the Local Area Connection Properties dialog box, under "This connection uses the
following items," select Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP / IPv4) and click Properties.
There are various ways to configure a computer to communicate with EVO™ 200 and
EVO™ 400 ATGs. These factors depend upon the user's computer knowledge and how the
computer is currently configured.
To determine which method is best for your site, read the instructions in the following section
carefully. Make detailed notes on the current configuration of the TCP/IP settings on the PC you
are using. Read both the "Obtain an IP address automatically" and the "Use the following IP
address" methods before making a choice between the two.
Obtain an IP Address Automatically
Computers commonly use this setting to obtain an IP address automatically.
1. If Obtain an IP address automatically is selected, it may be best to click the Alternate
Configuration tab.
2. Select User Configured.
3. Enter an IP address. For simplicity, make the last segment of the IP one number different
than the IP address of the console. Upon initial setup ONLY, the numbers used in the
figure may be used to configure the TCP/ IP settings of your PC. After initial startup the
programmed parameters should be verified through the touchscreen
4. Leave all other information blank and click OK.
5. Close the Local Area network for changes to take place.
