-Once the server is connected to LAN it acquires an IP address provided from the DHCP service. To discover the IP address assigned to the server use the ”Servers Manager” tool installed with ThinKnx Configurator software (see <imgref 2> ). This software provides a list of all the ThinKnx server (ordered by serial number) detected on the LAN and for each of them shows its IP settings. After selecting the ThinKnx server installed, it is possible to disable the DHCP service and provide it with a static IP. Click on the ”Apply server setup” to confirm the changes. This step is recommended to avoid the loss of the ip address in case the connection is lost: in fact on connection recovery, the DHCP server could not assign the same address, causing problems between server and clients.+Once the Audiofy is connected to LAN it acquires an IP address given by the DHCP service. To discover the IP address assigned to the device, use the Thinknx UP Configurator by clicking on the bottom right section of the software where it reads "Click here to search for Thinknx devices". After selecting the ThinKnx Audiofy installed, it is possible to disable the DHCP service and provide it with a static IP. Click on the ”Apply server setup” to confirm the changes. This step is recommended to avoid the loss of the IP address in case the connection is lost: in fact on connection recovery, the DHCP server could not assign the same address, causing problems between server and clients.
