Set the IP address of your PC/Laptop to the same range as the charger, being mindful to ensure the last set of numbers are different from the device you are connecting to in order to prevent an IP address conflict. The IP address of the example device we are connecting to ends in 206 so we have set our IP to 204 in order to ensure we are on the same range. (For example Charger IP: 192.168.88.206 = Laptop IP: 192.168.88.204)
In the Subnet mask field, enter 255.255.255.0. This will almost always remain unaltered.
Press Save to complete the process. Your PC/Laptop should now be able to locate other devices/chargers/LMS systems within the same IP range.
