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, you know what it is. By default, it is set to 0.0.0.0 from the factory, which means “use DHCP”.
Otherwise, 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 you know what it is.
If you powered the ROVLe up on a subnet that does include a DHCP server, you may be able to use the name "ROVLe-RX" instead of a numeric IP address, depending on if the DHCP server accepts the ROVLe’s suggestion of a host name.
Cerulean's SonarView application can also automatically discover the IP address of the ROVLe, 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 two different methods:
http://192.168.2.9
http://ROVLe-RX
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)
