To Control M300 through LAN
1 Connect the devices
Connect M300 to your computer or the LAN of the computer using network
cable.
2 Configure LAN parameters
1) DHCP mode:
If the network supports DHCP, the DHCP server in the network assigns
network parameters (IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS) for
M300 automatically.
2) Auto IP mode:
When the network doesn’t support DHCP, the DHCP mode of M300 is
disabled, or M300 is connected to the PC directly, the instrument selects
Auto IP mode and acquires the IP address from 169.254.0.1 to
169.254.255.254, and subnet mask 255.255.0.0 automatically.
3) Manual IP mode:
Enable the Manual IP mode and disable the DHCP mode as well as the Auto
IP mode to set the network parameters manually.
If M300 is connected to the PC directly, set the IP Addresses, Subnet Masks
and Gateways for both of the PC and the instrument. The Subnet Masks and
Gateways of M300 and PC must be the same and the IP Addresses of them
must be within the same network segment (for details, refer to the TCP/IP
protocol). An example is shown in the table below.

192.16.3.1
If your M300 is connected to the LAN of your PC, please acquire a set of
valid network parameters (IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DNS)
and configure the network parameters of the instrument according to the
description in “To Set LAN Parameters”.
3 Search device resource
Start up Ultra Sigma, click
and click in the pop-up
window. Ultra Sigma searches for the instrument resources currently connected
to the LAN and the resources found are displayed at the right of the window.
Select the desired resource name and click
to add it, as shown in
the figures below.
