CONTEC Device Utility uses multicast communication to discover devices.
However, device web configuration uses unicast communication.
Consequently, if the PC and the device do not have the same network address, you may be unable to access the device's web configuration screen, even if the device appears in the CONTEC Device Utility list.
The network address is determined by the IP address and subnet mask.
If the network addresses of the PC and the device match, they are considered
to be on the same network.
Please adjust the IP address and subnet mask so that the network addresses match, and then click the [WebSetting] button.
