7. Using HTML Pages to Configure the Q52
TCP/IP Forms

The Q52 may be set up to automatically request its TCP/IP parameters over the network 
from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server. To enable this feature, 
click on the radio button labelled ’Obtain an IP address automatically’. When this feature 
is enabled, the DHCP server will provide all TCP/IP configuration data; in this case, 
none of the other fields on the TCP/IP Settings form need to be filled in.

If static addressing is desired, then click on the radio button labelled ’Use the following 
IP address’. For static addressing, the IP address and Subnet mask are required to be 
entered. All other parameters are optional, depending upon your installation 
requirements.

Default: Unconfigured (blank) IP address and subnet mask; dynamic addressing 
enabled.

If static addressing is used, and the Q52 will be required to communicate to a different 
subnet, then the IP address of a default gateway is required in order to route traffic from 
the Q52 to devices on remote subnets. You can leave this field blank if you are not 
communicating across a router (from one network to another). In most other situations, 
you simply enter your router's IP address in the Default Gateway field. 

Default: Unconfigured (blank).
