Once the dialog starts, the system automatically searches for all devices in the network. In the tree
diagram, all available devices are indicated. If the device is found in the group "Currently not
reachable", you need to configure the LAN settings. If the device is found in the group "Ready for
measurement", you can retain the current settings or view them. Select the device.
Display of measurement devices found and of the IP-address
If the configuration type: DHCP is used, the IP-address is obtained automatically from the DHCP-
server. If there is a direct connection between the device and the PC with a crossed cable, you should
deactivate the DHCP. If it is impossible to obtain any setting values via DHCP, the alternative values
are used. These could lead to errors in the connection (different networks, same IP-addresses, etc.).
Without DHCP, you must set the IP-address manually. Please note that the device's and PC's IP-
address must fit together, in other words that in the network mask only the portion representing the
device is different (see example).
In order to apply the changes, click on the button Apply. Wait for the device to restart and then close
dialog.
Note: Connection via modem
If the connection to the device is established via a modem, start the program imc DEVICES Interface
Configuration by clicking on the button: Advanced Configuration. An exact description is found in
the chapter: Setup - Connect the device > Special options for connecting to the device.
