NetSetter
Introduction
The HiQnet NetSetter is a software tool which enables you to discover HiQnet devices and reconfigure network settings in real-time for each device. Its function is
to configure a system of devices to interoperate correctly on the same network and resolve conflicts quickly and easily.

The top of the NetSetter page list overall operational functions that are available. They are as follows:
PC Adapter – A drop list menu that selects the Network Interface Card (NIC)’s adapter that NetSetter will use to attempt to discover HiQnet devices. All
available NIC’s are listed by IP Address. Selecting a new NIC will force a rescan of the network to which the new NIC is connected.

-All Devices – Default setting. All discovered devices are displayed
-HiQnet ID conflicts - Only discovered devices with HiQnet address conflicts are displayed.

Rescan Network – Clicking this button re-scans the network to which the currently selected NIC is connected.
Export – The export button brings up a “Save As” window allowing you to save the HiQnet Addresses and IP Configurations of all devices on the

Microsoft Excel.
