AMETEK LXI DISCOVERY BROWSER
The AMETEK LXI Discovery Browser is a software tool provided
by AMETEK. This tool can be used to automatically locate LXI
compliant devices on your network. This is especially helpful if
any of them are using DHCP. In this case, the IP address of the
device is not known at power up since it is being automatically set
by the network’s DHCP server. The AMETEK LXI Discovery
Browser will scan the network and return the IP addresses of any
attached LXI compliant devices.
Installing the AMETEK LXI Discovery Browser
The software can be downloaded from the AMETEK
Programmable Power website.
1. Go to the folder for LXI Discovery Browser and ENet Test
Utility.
2. From there go to the EVXIBrowse directory.
3. Go to the Disk1 directory.
4. In the Disk1 select the Setup application. A window similar
