click the Find All button.
All devices on the same subnet as your computer will be displayed with their IP addresses and other information.
On a network without a DHCP server
Without a DHCP server, an IP address is not assigned to the Monarch device. You must assign a static IP address
and then configure your computer's network to allow a connection between your computer and the Monarch.
The default IP address 169.254.1.11 is provided when in Static IP mode.

information on how to change these settings on your computer, see your operating system's documentation.
If you have multiple Monarch devices on the same network, they must each have unique IP addresses. You can
change the IP address from the Command Center.
