IMPORTANT! After changing any Ethernet settings, you must restart the BCMS Hub. Touch Restart in
Ethernet Settings (Figure 16) and wait for the system to reinitialize itself.
The Monitor backpanel has an Ethernet port. A customer-supplied Ethernet cable must be physically attached
to the customer network and an Ethernet IP address must be set before Modbus TCP/IP or SNTP Time
Synchronization is configured.
The Ethernet Settings panel in the Settings screen (Figure 16) allows the operator to set an IP address if a
different address than the DHCP address is required.
• Toggle Use DHCP button:
• Green check mark(√) : Use DHCP to assign IP address
• Red X: Do not use DHCP; provide IP value in Address.
• Address is the Ethernet IP address of the Switch, which can be set directly or by DHCP.
