Once the PC and MD-xxHD are set to communicate on the same IP subnet:
1. Launch the ViewPoint HD application and enter the IP address of the meter (shown as the factory
default).
2. Press the Connect over Ethernet to: button on the pop up window.
3. The meter should now be communicating. ViewPoint HD is an intuitive application; read the

A MD-xxHD meter without a display can only communicate directly with a PC over ethernet if the
IP address of the meter is set to static. Setting the IP address must be done ahead of time using
another interface (such as USB or serial).
