Revision history [back]

Network configuration seems to cause frequent problems getting data from the HDL-32E. The older 64E (which I have) is easier because it broadcasts the packets.

According to the HDL-32E Manual, page 11, the 32E only sends data to a specific static IP address, 192.168.3.255.

Exactly how you configure your network depends on your system's network environment. For the simple case of connecting the device directly to an ethernet port, this has been reported to work:

sudo ifconfig eth0  192.168.3.255 netmask 255.255.0.0
