15.1 Allocating an IP Address in a Local Network
You select a static IP address (Internet Protocol). Use the address range which is available to your
router. In most cases the address range of the router lies between 192.168.0.1. and
192.168.255.254. If necessary refer to the manual of your router.
Please note during the allocation of the IP address that the first three address parts of the IP address
must be identical for all participants of the same network. You may not allocate the same IP address
twice.
Example:
15.2 Determining the network settings of the Sunny WebBox.
Using the following steps, you can determine the current network settings of the Sunny WebBox. You
can then configure your computer to allow you to access the Sunny WebBox again (see section
10.3”Ethernet Network” (page59)).
1. If necessary, remove the write protection of the SD card.
2. Insert the SD card into the Sunny WebBox with the contacts facing down and to the front (see
Section 9.6”Storing Recorded Data on an SD Card” (page54)).
☑"MEMORY" LED flashes orange. The Sunny WebBox creates a directory on the SD card.
The name of the data file is "WebBox_[SerialNumber]", whereby [SerialNumber]
designates the serial number of the respective Sunny WebBox.
3. Wait until the "MEMORY" LED glows continuously green.
4. Remove the SD card from the Sunny WebBox.
5. Connect SD card to a computer.
6. Open the directory on the SD card ("WebBox_SerialNumber").
This directory contains a file named "config.xml".
7. Open "config.xml" in a text editor or in Internet Explorer.
☑ You have now opened the Sunny Webbox configuration file. See the configuration file for the
required information (see section 15.3”Structure of the Config.xml File” (page82)).
