a temporary or permanent IP addresses (out of a pool) from a DHCP server.
In order to use the DHCP function, there should be a DHCP server residing at the user's local area network.
If DHCP server is not available, the Slave unit's IP address must be Static. Please refer to the "Static IP"
section for more information.
Before you turn on the DHCP option, you need to enter the Master's IP address at the "Remote IP" field
on the "Settings" page for the Slave Unit.
Example:

Please do the following after the "Master IP" has been set on the Slave units.

2. At the front panel, set "DHCP" DIP switch to on (down) position.
3. Power up the unit.
