You may open the PT-7728’s Telnet or web console over a network. This requires that the PC host

and subnet mask. By default, the PT-7728’s IP address is 192.168.127.253 and PT-7728’s subnet
mask is 255.255.255.0 (for a Class C network). This means that your PC’s IP address must be set
to 192.168.xxx.xxx for a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0, or to 192.168.127.xxx with a subnet mask of
