nLocateIP Method

Once the unit is connected to the network, you should be able to locate it on the network using SSi’s nLocateIP  software. This program is available from SSi. To use it in locating the unit on the network, follow these steps on a Windows-based PC:

 

  1. Ensure that the unit is connected to the network.

 

  1. Open the nLocateIP program.

  1. Look for identifying text in the list of instruments. The corresponding IP address is the IP address that you will want to use.

 

 

Once you have found the IP address, you should be able to complete any additional network configuration using the web interface. See the SSI Configuration section.

 

If you are unable to find the unit in the list of devices, it is possible that a network setting (such as subnet mask) may be different, the unit may be connected to a different network, or the unit may not be powered on. SSi recommends consulting an IT engineer or network administrator. If needed, call SSi at (513) 772-0060.
