By default, your Room Alert Monitor obtains an IP address automatically using DHCP. You may set a static IP address, if you wish, through the device’s built-in web interface. To do so, follow the steps below:

1. First, open the device’s web interface.
   You may do this by typing its IP address directly into your browser’s URL.
   For help, please see How To Discover A Room Alert Monitor and How To Open Your Room Alert Monitor’s Built-in Web Interface.
2. Log In to the web interface and access the Settings.
   For help, please see How To Access A Room Alert Monitor’s Settings Pages.
3. (On ‘S’ and ‘E’ models) Navigate to Settings → Network Settings.
   
   (On MAX Base Stations) Navigate to either Settings → Ethernet Settings or Wi-Fi Settings, depending on whether you wish to set a static IP on the device’s Wired or Wi-Fi network.
   
   • To set a static IP address on your Base Station’s connected Wi-Fi network, click on the network name at the top of the list. Then in the window that opens, click Make Changes.
     
4. In IP Configuration, choose the manual option; this option is labeled either Use The Following IP Configuration or Manual (Static IP).
   
5. Then enter your static IP address information in the following fields:
   • IP Address
   • Subnet Mask
   • Default Gateway
   • DNS Server IP
6. When you’re done, select Save or Save Settings. Your Room Alert Monitor will reboot at the new IP address.
