I've just uploaded "Heavy". What are its default network parameters?

Up to Table of Contents

By default DHCP is turned on, so if you plug the Make Controller into your home/local network, it should automatically get an address, which you can then see in mchelper.

If you're not plugging it into a network, if will use its default IP details which are:

        Address: 192.168.0.200
        Net Mask: 255.255.255.0
        Gateway: 192.168.0.1
        MAC Address: AC:DE:48:55:XX:YY

where XX & YY are the last two bytes of the Controller's serial number.  You can find the serial number by sending the OSC message
/system/serialnumber
or looking at the Summary tab in mchelper with the board connected.

These can be changed either in code or via OSC over Ethernet or USB, although if your network settings aren't working, USB will definitely be the better option.

Serial Number?

The last part of the MAC address is the last digits of the serial number - what's the easiest way to find this?
