Finding the Configuration Web Page
The configuration web page is accessed with a web browser at the default HTTP web server port 80.
First, find the IP address of the ROVLe:
If you already have set the static IP address of the ROVLe, use the one you set. By default, basic ROVLe units are set to use DHCP (a convention whereby Ethernet devices ask a central server for an Ethernet IP address). Omnitrack units have a default static address set to 192.168.2.9, although Omnitrack units can be set by the user to also ask for a DHCPO IP address.
If set to "Use DHCP", if you powered the ROVLe up on a subnet that does not include a DHCP server, the ROVLe will use its fallback IP address. When shipped from the factory this is set to 192.168.2.9. If you already changed the fallback IP address, use the one you set.
Cerulean's SonarView application can automatically discover the IP address of the ROVLe and show it to you, as can the (now deprecated) CeruleanTracker application.
Once you have the IP address in hand, you can enter it into the address bar of a browser such as Google Chrome, for example, using the following method:
http://192.168.2.9
The configuration page should pop up, assuming:
The ROVLe is powered up
The ROVLe connected to the same network as your computer
Your computer can access the subnet used by the ROVLe (some hints about this are here)
The ROVL Mk V Transmitter also has a configuration web page. By default, it is at http://192.168.2.10
