1. Make sure the reticle is firmly connected with the monitor. After the reticle is successfully connected, the
green LED.
2. Set the IP address and Subnet Mask manually on the monitor. Make sure they are on the same network
segment with the PC.
3. Ping the address.
4. After successfully Ping the address, use the software modbuspoll for debugging. To establish the
connection, the IP address should be the one of monitor and the
