2.1. Assigning an IP address to MDC‐700
The MDC‐700 is an Ethernet device, which comes with a default IP address of 192.168.255.1;
therefore, you must first assign a valid IP address of your network to the module. To access the
MDC‐700 by using web‐based interface, you have to know the IP address setting in the module.
STEP 1: Connect the PC and MDC‐700 module to an Ethernet Hub/Switch, and power on all the
devices. You can also connect a MDC‐700 to PC directly with an Ethernet cable.
STEP 2: Set the IP configuration on your computer.
If the MDC module is new with using the default IP address of 192.168.255.1, you must chose
an IP address for the computer in the range of 192.168.255.2 – 192.168.255.253 that is not
already in use.
NOTE: Details on how to change the IP address on your computer depend upon the type
architecture and operating system you are using. Use the Help and Support functionality on
your computer and search for "IP Addressing".
STEP 3: Open a web browser and go to the website at http://192.168.255.1, where 192.168.255.1 is
the IP address in your MDC module.
