Post Glover Natural Ground Resistor (NGR) uses a smart Human Machine Interface (HMI) to set up configuration parameter. Steps to configure HMI’s Ethernet settings are not well documented. Sometime if parameters are not enter properly, they do not stay after power is cycled. Here are steps to configure its Ethernet settings.
