Setting up the recorder using the Ethernet and built-in web interface
1. As shipped from the factory, the recorder uses a link-local connection, which
allows its Ethernet cable to be plugged into any existing Ethernet network. The
Wrangler recorder defaults to a xed link-local IP address of 169.254.109.109.
NOTE – Only one factory default recorder can be connected to a network, until
the default IP address has been changed to a new, unique IP address.
2. Connect the Wrangler Ethernet cable to the recorder and to an Ethernet
network connection.
3. Apply power to the recorder using the power
cable.
4. From a computer on the same network as the
recorder, open a web browser and connect to
the Wrangler link-local IP address as follows:
http://169.254.109.109
5. Click PARAMETERS.
6. If this is the rst time logging into the unit,
you need to set the password for the admin
account. You should also set a password for
the user account at the same time.
7. Click NETWORK to open the Network
Settings screen.
8. Change the Wrangler’s IP address to be a
new unique IP address appropriate for your
Ethernet network.
9. Click Send at the bottom of the screen to send
the new network settings to the recorder.
