Local LAN use
There are several situations where a user may want to avoid using a corporate LAN network
when connecting a power source like the CPS100 Series. A direct LAN connection between
the power source and a PC or Laptop using a RJ45 network cable eliminates the need for an
actual network and avoids network security issues.
To do so, it is necessary to set up a static IP address on the PC. If the PC has a DCHP server,
other network resources such as a WIFI device may lay claim to a previously used IP address
lease.
