  Set the default gateway 
In the manual IP mode, you need to acquire an available gateway address 
from the administrator, and then configure the default gateway manually. 
The format of the default gateway is "nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn". The range for the 
first segment (nnn) of the address is from 1 to 223 (except 127); and the 
range for the other three segments is from 0 to 255. 
 
In the manual IP mode, press the Up/Down arrow key to switch the 
parameter focus to "Gateway", and then press the Left/Right arrow key to 
move the cursor. Use the numeric keys or the knob to input the gateway 
address. 
 
The setting is saved to the non-volatile memory. If "Power-on" is set to 
"Last", and the next you power on the instrument, set both "DHCP" and 
"AutoIP" to "OFF", in this case, the instrument will automatically load the 
set gateway address. 
 
  Set DNS 
In the manual IP mode, you need to acquire an available DNS address from 
the administrator, and then configure the DNS address manually. The 
format of the DNS address is "nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn". The range for the first 
segment (nnn) of the address is from 1 to 223 (except 127); and the range 
for the other three segments is from 0 to 255. 
 
In the manual IP mode, press the Up/Down arrow key to switch the 
parameter focus to "DNS", and then press the Left/Right arrow key to move 
the cursor. Use the numeric keys or the knob (fine-tune) to input the DNS 
address. 
 
The setting is saved to the non-volatile memory. If "Power-on" is set to 
"Last", and the next you power on the instrument, set both "DHCP" and 
"AutoIP" to "OFF", in this case, the instrument will automatically load the 
set DNS address. 
 
 
3.  Physical Address 
Physical address is also called media access control address (MAC address). It is 
also called hardware address, which can be used to define the location of the 
network device. The physical address for one device is unique and is not allowed 
If the input subnet mask is invalid, a prompt message "Invalid subnet 
mask. The subnet mask must be contiguous." will be displayed. 
Tip 
The three IP configuration modes cannot be all set to "ON" or "OFF".
