Network Configuration For Modbus TCP Options
If the instrument has the Modbus TCP communications option fitted, an IP address must be
assigned to it in order for it to communicate with the Modbus TCP master device over your
Ethernet network. The instrument can automatically receive an IP address if your network is
set up to assign addresses to Ethernet devices connected to it. Alternatively, a fixed IP
address can be assigned to it manually.
The Graphical Controller Ethernet Configuration tool is provided in order to discover or
assign the IP Address of the instrument and configure the settings.

Setting the IP Address
Install and run the Graphical Controller Ethernet Configuration software on your PC. Connect
the instrument to your network by plugging an Ethernet cable into the RJ45 socket on the top
of the case. If your PC is not connected to a network, the instrument can be connected to its
Ethernet port directly.
