DHCP radio buttons 
The DHCP On radio button directs the device to ignore any entered IP addresses and to 
obtain its IP address from a Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol (DHCP) server (if the 
network is DHCP capable). 
The DHCP Off radio button turns DHCP off. Contact the local system administrator to 
determine this control setting.
IP Address
The IP Address field contains the IP address of the Annotator. This value is encoded in 
the unit’s flash memory.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subelds separated by dots 
(periods). Each eld can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeros, up to 3 digits 
total per eld, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The factory-installed default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other 
equipment at your installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
NOTE:  Editing the Extron IP address while connected via the Ethernet port can 
immediately disconnect the user from the scaler. Extron recommends 
editing this eld using the RS-232 link and protecting the Ethernet access 
to this screen by assigning an administrator password to qualified and 
knowledgeable personnel only.
Edit this eld as follows:
1.  Click in the device IP address field. The graphic cursor becomes a text cursor.
2.  Edit the address as desired.
3.  Press the <Tab> key on the keyboard or click in another field to exit the IP Address 
field.
4.  Click on the Submit button to make the address change take effect.
Gateway IP Address 
The Gateway IP Address field identifies the address of the gateway to the mail 
server to be used if the Annotator and the mail server are not on the same subnet.
The gateway IP address has the same validity rules as the system IP address.
Subnet Mask field
The Subnet Mask field is used to determine whether the Annotator is on the same 
subnet as the controlling PC or the mail server when you are subnetting. 
MAC Address field
The Media Access Control (MAC) Address is hard coded in the device and cannot be 
changed.
Firmware field
This field shows the firmware version number. This field changes only when the firmware 
is updated.
Model field
This field shows the model (Annotator) and cannot be changed.
Part Number field
This field shows the Annotator part number (60-968-xx) and cannot be changed.
