CDA3-35 User’s Guide
1.4 IP Address Setup
Before you use the CDA3-35’s GUI, your computer’s IP address must be in the same
subnet as the CDA3-35. This allows your computer to communicate with the CDA3-
35.
NOTE: See IP Addresses and Subnets on page 20 for background information.
The CDA3-35 has a built-in DHCP server that, when active, assigns IP addresses to
computers on the LAN. When the DHCP server is active, you can get an IP address
automatically. The DHCP server is active by default.
If your computer is configured to get an IP address automatically, or if you are not
sure, try to enter the CDA3's IP address (default 192.168.100.1) in the URL bar in a
opened browser window (see GUI Overview on page 17).
If the System Information screen displays, your computer is already configured
correctly.
If the System Information screen does not display, either the CDA3-35’s DHCP
server is not active or your computer is not configured correctly. Follow the
procedure in Manual IP Address Setup on page 16 and set your computer to get
an IP address automatically. Try again. If you cannot see the screen, follow the
manual IP address setup procedure again, and set a specific IP address as
shown. Try again.
NOTE: If you still cannot see the System Information screen, your CDA3-35’s IP
settings may have been changed from their defaults. If you do not know the
CDA3-35’s new address, you should return it to its factory defaults. See
Resetting the CDA3-35 on page 18. Bear in mind that ALL user-configured
settings are lost.
1.4.1 Manual IP Address Setup
By default, your CDA3-35’s local IP address is 192.168.100.1. If your CDA3-35 is
using the default IP address, you should set your computer’s IP address to be
between 192.168.100.2 and 192.168.100.254.
NOTE: If your CDA3-35 DHCP server is active, set your computer to get an IP
address automatically in step 5. The CDA3-35 assigns an IP address to your
computer. The DHCP server is active by default.
