Configuring Ethernet TCP/IP

When using Ethernet to deploy QX-870s in an application, the host computer must be in the same IP range as the devices. Network settings are accessible in Windows from the Control Panel. The steps below show how TCP/IP settings can be configured.

• From the Windows Start Menu, open Control Panel and double-click Network Connections.
  
  

• The Network Connections dialog will appear. Double-click the icon for the Local Area Connection being used in the application.
  
  

• The Local Area Connection Status dialog will appear. To check the host computer's connection settings, click Details on the Support tab.
  
  

• A connected QX-870's default address information can be verified in ESP by clicking the Search button in the Connection Wizard. Compare the scanner's IP address to the host's IP address to determine whether or not they are in the same subnet range (this can be determined by your I.T. department if you are unsure).
  
  

• To change the host computer's connection settings, click Properties on the General tab.
  
  

• The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog will appear.
