The configuration need to be done on :
1- The LIP Web Interface: Every LIP need to be connect to the network by specific IP adress
2-  IZOT CT software : Declaration of all the equipements (LIP, LINX and API)
3- PcVue : To connect  the equipments and display the data

I- Configuration of the LIP:

To configure the LIP there is two possibilities :

1- On LIP web interface :

a- You need to define which LIP is the server (only one can be made as server on your architecture)

b- Configure all address IP for other equipments such as : LINX, other LIP …, Add the IP address of the machine where IzoT CT is used

NB : All the equipments need to have in state column a green check (be enable)

2- On Echelon Configuration Server :

Declare the IP address of the machine where is used the IzoT CT and declare all the IP addresses of the equipments

II- Configuration of the IZOT CT
