# UNICAST-TO-ME

The UNICAST-TO-ME command tells the DVL to stop sending broadcast UDP packets and switch to unicast. It can also “take over” the DVL output from another target host. A usage scenario for this would be to set the DVL to power up with a static host address for the usual host on the usual network. If the static host address is not active (you are using a different computer or your DHCP supplied a new address to the host), you can send a Discovery command to find the DVL address, followed by a UNICAST-TO-ME command to switch output to your host.

If this command is sent to the serial port the results will be undefined. The effect of UNICAST-TO-ME ends at a power cycle or reboot, so if you want the change to be persistent, use the HOST-ADDRESS command to set the desired host address.
