Installing an Ethernet Device via a Distributed Network Without a DHCP
Server
Installation of an Ethernet device connected to a distributed network that does not have a DHCP server or where the
DHCP server is turned off requires you to obtain an IP address from your system administrator.
Note: In the illustration above, the Hubs could instead be routers with DHCP turned off (i.e., a static IP assigned net-
work). Contact your system administrator for details about your network.
1.
Have the system administrator designate an IP address for your device.
2.
Plug the device into your network and apply power.
3.
Install WinDaq software (see “Installing WinDaq Software and the Dataq Instruments Hardware Manager” on
page 16) up to Step 13.
4.
At Step 13, the installation software will not see your device. If it is the first Dataq Instruments device installed
to your network, you will see the
No Devices Found
dialog box.
