Change the network address of a connected device
For communication in a network, a Static IP address is stored for the device in the LDS and the function
Use DHCP is activated. When establishing a connection, the device will first wait to be assigned a suitable IP
address via DHCP. If this proofs unsuccessful, it will revert to the static IP address.
If Use DHCP is disabled, the device will directly use the static IP address. As a result, the connection can be
established faster.
For a connected device, both the IP address and the activation of DHCP can be changed.
Change the IP address of a device as
follows:
1.
Click on the Devices tab.
2.
Right-click on the device and select
the Device settings menu point.
3.
Enter in the desired IP address or use
the Use DHCP function
4.
Confirm the entry with OK.
5.
Switch the device off and on again.
