The bridge is contacted by OMNITREND through the network
(Ethernet). The bridge is addressed through the IP address of the
bridge. The factory-set address is:

If the address range of your network differs from the standard
range (e.g. 172. ... or 10. ... ), adjust the IP address of the bridge
accordingly before you install the bridge in the machine park.
