The Digi Device Setup Wizard is included on the Software and Documentation CD for your
product. Using this wizard is the easiest way to assign an IP address and initially configure Digi
devices. It discovers Digi devices on a network, configures an IP address for a Digi device, and
configures basic serial port parameters according to how the device will be used. After this initial
configuration, features can be fine-tuned as needed through the web interface. Setup is specially
designed for the Windows environments, and is quick, automated, and complete.
